Abstract
A distributed scheduling scheme for D2D communications is described in which D2D transmitter terminals send transmit requests and D2D receiver terminals respond with bandwidth grant messages if certain interference criteria are met. The described scheme may include a technique for more efficiently scheduling D2D links by having D2D receivers base their decisions as to whether to send a bandwidth grant message on whether or not a higher priority D2D receiver has transmitted a bandwidth grant message.
