Abstract:
A radio network node for assisting in groupcast transmission between a first user equipment capable of device-to-device operation, D2D UE, and a group of target D2D UEs. A target D2D UE, as well as methods therein are also provided. Coverage is increased by assisting in groupcast transmission coverage. Embodiments provide improved spectral efficiency and/or improved communication reliability.
