- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18019272 Titled 'METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR DATA VOLUME COUNTING'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes methods and devices that assist in direct device-to-device (D2D) communication. Specifically, it explains a method performed by a relay user equipment (UE), which involves monitoring the amount of data traffic at the relay UE. The method also includes determining the size of two portions of the data traffic volume - one related to the relay UE itself and the other related to a remote UE that is connected to the relay UE.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and apparatus supportive to D2D communications are disclosed. A method performed by a relay user equipment, relay UE, comprises: monitoring a data traffic volume at the relay UE; and determining a size of a first portion of the data traffic volume related to the relay UE, and a size of a second portion of the data traffic volume related to a remote UE that is connected to the relay UE.
