TL;DR: Device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying a 3GPP LTE-Advanced cellular network is studied as an enabler of local services with limited interference impact on the primary cellular network.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the D2D radio, sharing the same resources as the cellular network, can provide higher capacity compared to pure cellular communication where all the data is transmitted through the base station.

TL;DR: The deliverable will not only serve as the guideline for the technical work and system concept design in METIS, but also can serve in external research communities to help to harmonize the work towards the future radio access system including the new generation system of 5G.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method for establishing device-to-device communications in a wireless network, which includes sending an initiation message from a first device to initiate D2D communication with a second device; receiving a message indicating a request for setting up radio resources for D2DM communication; sending a message to the second device, the message including a request to set up resources for device-todomain communication and, in response to establishing device to device communication with the second devices using the resources, sending an acknowledgment that device-device communication is established.

TL;DR: This paper investigates deploying LTE on a license-exempt band as part of the pico-cell underlay and shows that LTE can deliver significant capacity even while sharing the spectrum with WiFi systems.
