Methods and apparatus for paging based peer discovery
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in connection with LTE based paging for peer discovery. In one example, an eNodeB is equipped to receive a message including a D2D discovery notification for a UE, determine that the UE is in an idle mode, and transmit a paging notification to the UE including the D2D discovery notification. In another example, a UE is equipped to receive, from an eNodeB, a paging notification including a D2D discovery notification, determine, while in idle mode, that the D2D discovery notification is successfully decoded, and transmit an ACK to the eNodeB using a RACH sequence on a PRACH.
