Abstract

This application discusses, among other things, apparatus and methods for providing device-to-device (D2D) discovery privacy. In an example, a method can include transmitting a first temporary identification and first discovery information from a first user equipment (UE), the discovery information authorizing discovery of the first UE; and receiving a request from a second UE to join a device-to-device network with the first UE using a second temporary identification associated with the second UE.
