Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for directional transmission/reception of groupcast and unicast communication. One apparatus includes a memory comprising instructions executable by a processor to cause the apparatus to receive a sidelink (“SL”) configuration for SL communication, the SL configuration indicating a SL grant and a physical uplink control channel (“PUCCH”) resource for hybrid automatic repeat request (“HARQ”) feedback. The instructions are executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to transmit a positive acknowledgement on the PUCCH resource based at least in part on the HARQ feedback being disabled.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-generation (4G) communication system such as a long term evolution (LTE). The present disclosure relates to a method of an evolved node B (eNB), comprising: transmitting at least one of first information as information on at least one first type-discovery resource pool including first type-discovery resources and second information as information on at least one second type-discovery resource pool including second type-discovery resources, or transmitting discovery resource information on at least one discovery resource which corresponds to a discovery resource type requested from a user equipment (UE).

A communication apparatus searches for a device using a first wireless communication, instructs, using the first wireless communication, a device selected from a list based the result of the search to operate in an access point mode, obtains, using the first wireless communication, connection information from the device operating in the access point mode, establishes a second wireless connection with the device based on the obtained connection information.

Aspects presented herein may enable a remote UE to notify a base station about the availability of a relay UE that is not connected to the base station. In one aspect, a remote UE transmits, to a relay UE, a relay request via sidelink, the relay UE being in an RRC inactive mode. The remote UE receives, from the relay UE via the sidelink, an indication of relay availability in response to the relay request. The remote UE receives, from a base station, a configuration for relay of communication from the base station over the sidelink between the remote UE and the relay UE. The remote UE transmits or receives user data from the base station through the relay UE based on the configuration.

The present disclosure relates to a BLUETOOTH scanning control method, a mobile terminal, and a storage medium. The method comprises: after receiving a BLUETOOTH scanning instruction, setting filter attribute information, wherein the filter attribute information is device attribute information of a BLUETOOTH device, which information is to be obtained by means of filtering in the present BLUETOOTH scanning operation; and acquiring the filter attribute information, performing BLUETOOTH scanning according to the filter attribute information, and displaying BLUETOOTH device information obtained by means of scanning. In the present embodiment, during BLUETOOTH scanning, a BLUETOOTH scanning operation is performed according to BLUETOOTH device information corresponding to the set filter attribute information, so as to obtain a BLUETOOTH device obtained by means of filtering and display the BLUETOOTH devices obtained by means of filtering, thereby reducing a scanning period, and achieving the aim of fast scanning.

A communication apparatus receives a signal that is transmitted from a partner apparatus using a first communication scheme, and establishes, on the basis that the signal received includes information indicating that parameter exchange processing is to be executed, a connection with the partner apparatus using a second communication scheme, wherein the second communication scheme has a higher communication rate and consumes more power than the first communication scheme. In addition, the communication apparatus exchanges, by using the second communication scheme, information to be used in communication for the parameter exchange processing with the partner apparatus, and executes the parameter exchange processing using the information by using the second communication unit scheme.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for pairing a speech-enabled device with a display device. A determination may be made to pair a speech-enabled device with a display device of a particular type. A set of display devices that are associated with the speech-enabled device may be identified in response to determining to pair the speech-enabled device with the display device of the particular type. An instruction may be provided to each of the display devices. The instruction may cause the display device to determine (i) whether the display device is of the particular type and (ii) whether the display device and the speech-enabled device both share a local area network and display on the display device an indication regarding pairing with the speech-enabled device.

In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, an electronic device is described. An example electronic device includes a charging dock to charge a wireless peripheral device and a sensor to determine when the wireless peripheral device is decoupled from the charging dock. A wireless communication device of the example electronic device wirelessly communicates with the wireless peripheral device. A controller of the example electronic device, responsive to an output from the sensor indicating that the wireless peripheral device is decoupled from the charging dock, triggers the wireless communication device to pair with the wireless peripheral device.

Provided are a wireless communication method and a remote terminal. The method includes that: a first remote terminal determines a first relay terminal for point-to-point communication; and the first remote terminal performs end-to-end communication with a second remote terminal through the first relay terminal. End-to-end communication is converted into point-to-point communication through the first relay terminal, so that when the distance between a sending end and a requesting end is too far, relaying may be performed on a communication link between the first remote terminal and the second remote terminal through the first relay terminal, so as to realize end-to-end communication.

A method for a relaying system. The method for improving an awareness of the relaying system by user equipment includes encoding information about a relaying service in a vehicle-to-everything message and transmitting the vehicle-to-everything message to the user equipment to improve user equipment's awareness of the relaying system's relaying service.
