1. A terminal device configured to communicate with a network, the terminal device comprising:
- transmitting circuitry configured and/or programmed to;
transmit a first buffer status report used to provide the network with first information about an amount of transmission data of a communication between the terminal device and the network, andtransmit a second buffer status report used to provide the network with second information about an amount of transmission data of a direct communication between a plurality of terminal devices including the terminal device, the second information being different from the first information,transmit, to the network, third information about information relevant to the direct communication, including one or a plurality of identifiers associated with a logical channel group of the direct communication, the first information, the second information, and third information being different from one another, whereinthe first buffer status report contains one or plurality of first buffer size information fields corresponding to the logical channel group,the second buffer status report contains one or plurality of second buffer size information fields and one or a plurality of index fields indicating a destination corresponding to the one or the plurality of the second buffer size information fields, andone or a plurality of values in one or the plurality of the index fields are associated with the one or the plurality of identifiers reported in the third information.

Abstract
A terminal apparatus generates a transmission resource request message that includes identifier information for identifying a service or an application to which transmission data belongs, or frequency information indicating a frequency that is used for the service or the application to which the transmission data belongs, and notifies the base station apparatus of the generated transmission resource request message, in a case where the transmission data for the service or the application for any device-to-device data communication is prepared in a transmission buffer of the terminal apparatus itself.
