Abstract

The present disclosure provides for a V2X communication configuration based on geographical location. Configuring the V2X communication can include generating a partitioned cell communication area; determining a presence of a UE in a geographical location of the partitioned cell communication area, wherein the UE is associated with a vehicle; and configuring a UL communication between the UE and the V2X server based on the geographical location.

Claims (32)

1. An apparatus of a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) server, the apparatus comprising:

electronic memory to store information on geographic coordinates of a User Equipment (UE) in a partitioned cell communication area, the UE including a vehicle UE or a pedestrian UE; and

one or more processors coupled to the memory and configured to:

cause communication with the UE over a multicast-broadcast (MB) UU link;

decode a V2X message from the UE including information about geographical coordinates of the UE;

determine a target geographic area for a downlink DL broadcast communication based on the information about the geographical coordinates of the UE; and

configure the DL broadcast communication to the target geographic area.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further to determine, based on the information about the geographical coordinates of the UE, a geographic sub-area identifier corresponding to a geographical sub-area of a partitioned cell communication area.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are to configure the DL broadcast communication by coordinating an inter-cell broadcast transmission schedule.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further to associate the information with a cell ID of the UE.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the V2X server corresponds to an evolved Node B (eNodeB).

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , further including a radio frequency circuitry coupled to the processor.

7. The apparatus of claim 6 , further including a front-end module coupled to the radio frequency circuitry.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the V2X message is from an application layer of the UE to the V2X server.

9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon instructions that, when implemented by a computing device, cause the computing device to:

cause communication with a User Equipment (UE), the UE including a vehicle UE or a pedestrian UE, the communication over a multicast-broadcast (MB) UU link;

decode a V2X message from the UE including information about geographical coordinates of the UE;

determine a target geographic area for a downlink DL broadcast communication based on the information about the geographical coordinates of the UE; and

configure the DL broadcast communication to the target geographic area.

10. The computer readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein the instructions are further to cause the computing device to determine, based on the information about the geographical coordinates of the UE, a geographic sub-area identifier corresponding to a geographical sub-area of a partitioned cell communication area.

11. The computer readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein the instructions are further to cause the computing device to configure the DL broadcast communication by coordinating an inter-cell broadcast transmission schedule.

12. The computer readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein the instructions are further to cause the computing device to associate the information with a cell ID of the UE.

13. The computer readable storage medium of claim 9 , wherein the V2X message is from an application layer of the UE to the V2X server.

14. An apparatus of a eNodeB, the apparatus comprising:

means for causing communication with a User Equipment (UE), the UE including a vehicle UE or a pedestrian UE, the communication over a multicast-broadcast (MB) UU link;

means for decoding a V2X message from the UE including information about geographical coordinates of the UE;

means for determining a target geographic area for a downlink DL broadcast communication based on the information about the geographical coordinates of the UE; and

means for configuring the DL broadcast communication to the target geographic area.

15. The apparatus of claim 14 , further including means for determining, based on the information about the geographical coordinates of the UE, a geographic sub-area identifier corresponding to a geographical sub-area of a partitioned cell communication area.

16. The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the means for configuring includes means for coordinating an inter-cell broadcast transmission schedule.

17. The apparatus of claim 14 , further including means for associating the information with a cell ID of the UE.

18. The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the V2X message is from an application layer of the UE to the V2X server.
