CELL SEARCH FOR D2D ENABLED UES IN OUT OF NETWORK COVERAGE
First Claim
1. A method for operating a D2D enabled UE for a cellular communication network, the method comprising performing a cell search in an out of coverage condition of the UE, wherein performing a cell search is based on a first measurement configuration during a first phase, and based on a second measurement configuration during a second phase, wherein the first measurement configuration pertains to a carrier whose sidelink is preconfigured for ProSe operation in out of network coverage operation.
