Introduction

• What is D2D (Device-to-Device) communication?

D2D communication allows device to communicate directly each other over the

D2D links without infrastructure

Different from M2M, D2D is supposed to be an access or link-layer technology.

Emerging license band-based D2D devices are expected to share the same

resources with cellular system

FlahslinQ (LTE-Direct)

Introduction of flashlinQ (LTE-Direct)

< 16 >

• A new peer-to-peer communication technology developed by Qualcomm

• Licensed spectrum

• Without infrastructure support

• Synchronous discovery

• OFDMA modulation

FlashlinQ

< 17 >

• Peer discovery

Devices (application) discover all other devices within range (up to ~ mile)

Capable of discovering thousands of devices

Identify only authorized devices (privacy maintained)

Automatic power efficient discovery without human intervention

• Paging – initiating communication

Link established through paging

• Communication

Once link established, devices can securely communicate

All pairs that can coexist communicate simultaneously

FlashlinQ

< 18 >

• Synchronous discovery

Periodically, every device transmits its peer discovery signal and also listens to peer

discovery signals of others to detect devices of interest in the proximity

Peer discovery occupies roughly 20 msec every one second

• PHY signaling: single-tone OFDM signaling

To increase range and be able to discover many at a time

Discover devices to communicate and potential interferers

Miss other transmissions when transmitting due to half-duplexing

May not be able to hear all simultaneous transmissions due to desensing

Solution for above issues is hopping (Latin square pattern)

PDRID (Peer Discovery Resource ID) hops in time and frequency pseudo-

randomly due to half-duplexing and desensing

This above figure does not include frequency hopping for simplicity

FlashlinQ: communication

• SINR based yielding (similar to RTS/CTS)

Tx-yielding: yield if the SINR (interference from the transmitter) of a

higher priority connection is below a certain threshold

Rx-yielding: yield if its own SINR is below a certain threshold

Rate scheduling: using estimated SIR, the code rate and modulation is decided

• Proximity Services (ProSe) study in 3GPP Release 12 & Onward

• Scope

Commercial/social use

Network offloading

Integration of current infrastructure services, to assure the consistency

of the user experience including reachability and mobility aspects

Public safety, even in case of absence of EUTRAN coverage

• The objective is to study use cases and identify potential requirements for

operator network controlled discovery and communications between UEs

Proximity Services discovery

< 24 >

• ProSe Direct discovery

A procedure employed by a ProSe-enabled UE to discover other

ProSe-enabled UEs in its vicinity

• EPC-level ProSe discovery

A process by which the EPC determines the proximity of two ProSe-

enabled UEs and informs them of their proximity.

Conclusion

• D2D is an emerging wireless technology for direct communications among

devices

• D2D is expected to be a key technology to improve system capacity and

user experience in various service scenarios.

• There are many technical issues including how to coexist with cellular

network users and how to deal with interferences

• We also need to develop D2D applications which are attractive to both

operators and users
