Abstract

A communication method, comprising: transmitting from a base station to a mobile station a first message which includes resource information corresponding to one or more resource pools, wherein the resource information identifies at least one sub-frame and at least one resource block within the at least one sub-frame, transmitting to the mobile station an indicator of one or more designated resource pools and designated resources from within the one or more designated resource pools such that the mobile station is permitted to communicate with a wireless device in communication with the mobile station via a wireless link using the one or more designated resources within the one or more designated resource pools.

Claims (24)

1. A communication method, comprising:

receiving, at a mobile station from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes resource information corresponding to a plurality of resource pools and a mapping between a plurality of radio network temporary identifiers (RNTIs) and the plurality of resource pools; and

receiving, at the mobile station from the base station, a downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a RNTI,

wherein the DCI indicates at least one designated resource pool from the plurality of resource pools and designated resources from within the at least one designated resource pool such that communications between the mobile station and a wireless device is permitted via a wireless link between the mobile station and the wireless device using the at least one designated resource pool.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the resource information identifies at least one sub-frame and at least one resource block within the at least one sub-frame.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the RRC message contains the plurality of RNTIs in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of resource pools.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) sequence.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mobile station performs sidelink communication with the wireless device using the at least one designated resource pool.

6. An apparatus for wireless communication comprising a processor, configured to implement a method, comprising:

receive, at a mobile station from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes resource information corresponding to a plurality of resource pools and a mapping between a plurality of radio network temporary identifiers (RNTIs) and the plurality of resource pools; and

receive, at the mobile station from the base station, a downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a RNTI,

wherein the DCI indicates at least one designated resource pool from the plurality of resource pools and designated resources from within the at least one designated resource pool such that communications between the mobile station and a wireless device is permitted via a wireless link between the mobile station and the wireless device using the at least one designated resource pool.

7. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the resource information identifies at least one sub-frame and at least one resource block within the at least one sub-frame.

8. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the RRC message contains the plurality of RNTIs in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of resource pools.

9. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) sequence.

10. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the processor of the mobile station is configured to perform sidelink communication with the wireless device using the at least one designated resource pool.

11. A non-transitory computer readable medium having code stored thereon, the code, when executed by a processor, causing the processor to implement a method, comprising:

receiving, at a mobile station from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes resource information corresponding to a plurality of resource pools and a mapping between a plurality of radio network temporary identifiers (RNTIs) and the plurality of resource pools; and

receiving, at the mobile station from the base station, a downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a RNTI,

wherein the DCI indicates at least one designated resource pool from the plurality of resource pools and designated resources from within the at least one designated resource pool such that communications between the mobile station and a wireless device is permitted via a wireless link between the mobile station and the wireless device using the at least one designated resource pool.

12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the resource information identifies at least one sub-frame and at least one resource block within the at least one sub-frame.

13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the RRC message contains the plurality of RNTIs in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of resource pools.

14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the DCI includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) sequence.

15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the mobile station performs sidelink communication with the wireless device using the at least one designated resource pool.
