A Novel Adaptive Transmission Algorithm for Device-to-Device Direct Discovery

June 27, 2017
Author(s)
Aziza Ben Mosbah, David W. Griffith, Richard A. Rouil
In this paper we study and improve one service used for Proximity Services and Device-to-Device (D2D) communications: D2D Direct Discovery. As defined in the Third Generation Partnership Project, for both in-coverage and out-of-coverage cases, resource

Implementation and Validation of an LTE D2D Model for ns-3

June 13, 2017
Author(s)
Richard A. Rouil, Fernando J. Cintron, Aziza Ben Mosbah, Samantha M. Gamboa Quintiliani
The ability to perform device-to-device (D2D) communication in Long Term Evolution (LTE)-based cellular networks became possible with the introduction of Proximity Services (ProSe) functionalities in the 3rd Generation Partnership Program (3GPP)

Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH) in Mode 2: Performance Analysis

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Fernando J. Cintron, Richard A. Rouil
User Equipments (UEs) that send data must advertise the upcoming transmission by broadcasting signaling messages over the Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH). Thus, it is important for the network operator to define the PSCCH resource pool to

Group Discovery Time in Device-to-Device (D2D) Proximity Services (ProSe) Networks

May 4, 2017
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Aziza Ben Mosbah, Richard A. Rouil
Device-to-device (D2D) communications for Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks relies on a discovery process to enable User Equipment (UE) to determine which D2D applications and services are supported by neighboring UEs. This is especially important for

Impact of timing on the Proximity Services (ProSe) synchronization function

January 8, 2017
Author(s)
Samantha Gamboa Quintiliani, Fernando Cintron, David W. Griffith, Richard A. Rouil
Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) introduces a new feature called Proximity Services (ProSe), which enables device-to-device (D2D) communication between User Equipment (UE) and the capability to operate out-of-network. In order to establish a D2D

BLER Performance Evaluation of LTE Device-to-Device Communications

November 9, 2016
Author(s)
Jian Wang, Richard A. Rouil
Long-Term Evolution (LTE) supporting Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is a feature introduced in 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) release 12. D2D communication is critical in public safety applications, which enables communication among first
