Example embodiments relate to identification of proxy calibration targets for a fleet of sensors. An example method includes collecting, using a sensor coupled to a vehicle, data about one or more objects within an environment of the vehicle. The sensor has been calibrated using a ground-truth calibration target. The method also includes identifying, based on the collected data, at least one candidate object, from among the one or more objects, to be used as a proxy calibration target for other sensors coupled to vehicles within a fleet of vehicles. Further, the method includes providing, by the vehicle, data about the candidate object for use by one or more vehicles within the fleet of vehicles.

In an embodiment, a communication control method is a communication control method in a mobile communication system that includes a first user equipment and a second user equipment and can perform sidelink communication between the first user equipment and the second user equipment. The communication control method includes, when the first user equipment transmits a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message including configuration information related to the sidelink communication, and discontinuous reception is configured between the first user equipment and the second user equipment, performing, by the first user equipment, waiting processing for reception of an RRC response message responding to the RRC message regardless of a configuration of the discontinuous reception. The communication control method includes transmitting, by the second user equipment, the RRC response message responding to the RRC message when receiving the RRC message, and receiving, by the first user equipment, the RRC response message.

In a method for conducting communications, a first terminal device in a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) network sends a first request message to a server of the V2V network to request the server to allocate an encryption key corresponding to a first service. The first request message includes an identifier of the first service and an identifier of the first terminal device. The first terminal device receives from the server a first response message that includes an encryption key corresponding to the first service. The first terminal device uses the encryption key to encrypt first information related to the first terminal device in the V2V network, and broadcasts a broadcast message that includes the encrypted first information to the V2V network.

A communication method includes a first terminal device that determines first configuration information of first discontinuous reception DRX, where the first DRX controls the first terminal device to receive data on a sidelink. The first terminal device sends the first configuration information to a second terminal device, where the second terminal device is a terminal device that establishes a sidelink connection to the first terminal device. This can reduce power consumption of the terminal device.

A method, apparatus, and system of a User Equipment (UE) device executing communications using a Device-to-Device (D2D) Long Term Evolution (LTE) network are provided. The method includes determining D2D devices communicating in an area, determining whether D2D data is to be transmitted, determining one or more resource sets for transmitting the D2D data, and transmitting the D2D data using the determined one or more resource sets.
