Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An apparatus for reporting connection setup request, includes a request transmitting unit configured to transmit a connection setup request for device-to-device communication to a network side when it is determined according to pre-obtained configuration information that the connection setup request for device-to-device communication can be transmitted to the network side.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for reporting a connection setup request, the method comprising: determining, according to pre-obtained configuration information, that the connection setup request for device-to-device communication is allowed to be transmitted to a network side and the connection setup request for device-to-device communication has been reported, but the connection setup request for device-to-device communication that has been reported is different from the connection setup request for device-to-device communication to he reported currently: transmitting the connection setup request for device-to-device communication to a network side, wherein the configuration information comprises information on whether the network side supports a user equipment (UE) to report a connection setup request for device-to-device communication, a time interval of reporting a connection setup request for device-to-device communication and a maximal number of times of reporting the connection setup request for device-to-device communication within the time intervals; determining whether the number of times of reporting the connection setup request for device-to-device communication within the time, interval exceeds the predetermined maximal number of times when it is determined according to the configuration information that the network side supports the UE to report a connection setup request for device-to-device communication; and determining that the connection setup request for device-to-device communication is allowed to be transmitted to the network side when the determination result is that the maximal number of times is not exceeded. 2. An apparatus for reporting a connection setup request, the apparatus composing: a memory configured to store a plurality of instructions; a transmitter; and processor circuitry coupled to the memory, wherein the processor circuitry is configured to: determine, according to pre-obtained configuration information, that the connection setup request for device-to-device communication is allowed to be transmitted to a network side and the connection setup request for device-to-device communication has been reported, but the connection setup request for device-to-device communication that has been reported is different from the connection setup request for device-to-device communication to be reported currently; transmit, via the transmitter, the connection setup request for device-to-device communication to a network side, acquire the configuration information, the configuration information comprising information on whether the network side supports a user equipment (UE) to report a connection setup request for device-to-device communication and a time interval of reporting the a connection setup request for device-to-device communication and a maximal number of times of reporting the connection setup request for device-to-device communication within the time interval; determine whether the number of times of reporting the connection setup request for device-to-device communication within the dine interval exceeds the predetermined maximal number of times when it is determined according to the configuration information that the network side supports the UE to report a connection setup request for device-to-device communication; and determine that the connection setup request for device-to-device communication is allowed to be transmitted to the network side when the determination result is that the maximal number of times is not exceeded.
