A base station (BS), transmitting a plurality of resource allocations for a group of user equipments (UEs) for communication of UEs in proximity to each other, wherein one or more of the UEs select at least one resource from the plurality of resources allocations to communicate that is utilized to communicate with at least one other UE in the group of UEs.

Scheduling communication in a wireless communication system

A user equipment (UE) receives, from a base station, a plurality of resource allocations for a group of UEs, wherein the plurality of resource allocations are for communication of UEs in proximity to each other. The UE selects one of the plurality of resources allocations for transmission, and transmits using the selected resource allocation, wherein the UE is in proximity to at least one other UE.

A network device transmits a communication indicating a location of the first UE, wherein the first UE is in proximity to a second UE. Further, the network device transmits data in a subframe or time slot, wherein the first UE transmits the data in the subframe or time slot and a second UE receives in the same subframe or time slot, based on the first UE and the second UE being in proximity.

A network device, based on received location from a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE may determine that the first UE and the second UE are in proximity to each other. Based on the proximity determination, the network device may provide at least one of the first and second UE uplink LTE resources for transmission, wherein the transmission is associated with a group of UEs.

A network device may receive a communication having a geographic position of a user equipment (UE) in a cell based on satellite information. A network device may send information on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) resources in a time slot. The OFDM resources may be scheduled based on the UE and another UE being part of a group and a probability of interference between the UE and another UE being located outside close proximity of the geographic position.

Interference may be determined between user equipment (UE) based on distance between the UEs and location information. Half duplex communication on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) resources may be scheduled based on the determined interference.

Interference potential may be determined between user equipment (UE) based on distance between the UEs and location information. Half duplex communication on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) resources may be scheduled based on the determined interference potential.

A wireless serving communication unit comprises a signal processor, for receiving and processing a signal to be broadcast, and a number of transmitters operably coupled to the signal processor, for transmitting the broadcast signal in a plurality of sectorised cells to a wireless subscriber communication unit. The wireless serving communication unit comprises logic to replicate the processed signal into a plurality of replicated signals and logic introduce one or more delay(s) to one or more of the replicated processed signals, such that replicated broadcast signals having different delays are transmitted from a plurality of sectorised cells to one or more wireless subscriber communication unit.
