initialize a timer associated with the BSRs for direct data transmission; and

perform, based on a resource for a direct data transmission in an exceptional case, the direct data transmission in the exceptional case, wherein the resource for the direct data transmission in the exceptional case is based on information of CommTxPoolExceptional, and wherein the CommTxPoolExceptional indicates resource pool information for the direct data transmission in the exceptional case.

10. The wireless user device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless user device to initialize the timer by initializing a periodic BSR-timer and a retransmission BSR-timer (retx BSR-timer).

11. The wireless user device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless user device to:

receive information of a resource selection mode; and

change, based on the determined RLF, from the resource allocation mode to the resource selection mode.

12. The wireless user device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless user device to:

determine, based on an occurrence of the exceptional case, a change from the resource allocation mode to a resource selection mode; and

in the resource selection mode, select, based on the resource pool information, the resource for the direct data transmission in the exceptional case,

wherein the exceptional case comprises: a case where upon detecting the RLF, an initialization of a re-establishment process for the RRC connection has been initiated and a T311 timer associated with the re-establishment process for the RRC connection has been started.

13. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless user device from a base station, one or more messages comprising information of a resource allocation mode for direct data transmission between the wireless user device and a different wireless user device;

triggering, while the wireless user device is operating in the resource allocation mode, a buffer status report (BSR) for direct data transmission;

determining, after the triggering, that a timer associated with a handover of the wireless user device is running;

canceling, based on the determining that the timer associated with the handover of the wireless user device is running, BSRs for direct data transmission, wherein the canceled BSRs for direct data transmission are associated with a direct data transmission scheduled by the base station and associated with the resource allocation mode; and

performing, based on a resource for a direct data transmission in an exceptional case, the direct data transmission in the exceptional case, wherein the resource for the direct data transmission in the exceptional case is based on information of CommTxPoolExceptional, and wherein the CommTxPoolExceptional indicates resource pool information for the direct data transmission in the exceptional case.
