Abstract

According to some embodiments, a method of device-to-device (D2D) communication comprises obtaining a division of radio resources. The division of radio resources comprises a first plurality of pools of a first periodicity. Each of the first plurality of pools comprises a set of radio resources and a plurality of patterns spanning the set of radio resources. The division of radio resources also comprises a division of the first plurality of pools into a second plurality of pools of a second periodicity greater than the first periodicity. Each of the second plurality of pools comprises a plurality of patterns comprising a union of the plurality of patterns of each pool of the first plurality pools that are included within the pool of the second plurality of pools. The method further comprises determining a pattern from one of the first or second plurality of pools, and using it to transmit the message.
