METHOD FOR DISCRIMINATING BETWEEN UNICAST DEVICE TO DEVICE (D2D) COMMUNICATION AND GROUPCAST D2D COMMUNICATION

摘要

Embodiments herein disclose a method for identifying a unicast Device to Device (D2D) communication. Further, the method includes generating, by a source User Equipment (UE), a D2D Media Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (PDU) comprising a unicast parameter. Further, the method includes transmitting, by the source UE, the D2D MAC PDU to the destination UE. Further, the method includes receiving, by the destination UE, the D2D MAC PDU. Further, the method includes detecting, by the destination UE, one of unicast parameters and groupcast parameters of the D2D MAC PDU. Furthermore, the method includes identifying, by the UE, the D2D MAC PDU is for one of the unicast D2D communication when the unicast parameters are detected, and the groupcast D2D communication when the groupcast parameters are detected.
