    Abstract: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods for device-to-device (D2D) communication are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the UE may determine a network reference timing based on a reception of a primary synchronization signal (PSS) from an Evolved Node-B (eNB). The UE may transmit a primary device-to-device synchronization signal (PD2DSS) to a second UE according to the determined network reference timing. The PD2DSS may be configured to enable synchronization for a device-to-device (D2D) communication session between the UE and the second UE. In some embodiments, the PD2DSS may be based on multiple PD2DSS symbol sequences, which may be different than PSS symbol sequences used for the PSS. In some embodiments, different Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequences may be used for the PD2DSS and for the PSS.

    Abstract: An apparatus and system for inter-UE coordination feedback for sidelink communications are described. In particular, inter-UE coordination feedback signaling for reliable sidelink communication including transmitter-based resource allocation and signaling of conflicts, prioritization of the inter-UE coordination feedback, and timing of the inter-UE coordination feedback are described. Sidelink hybrid acknowledgment request (HARQ) acknowledgment/negative acknowledgment (ACK/NACK) or NACK only signaling is prioritized over a half-duplex (HD) or co-channel collision (CC) feedback indication, and uplink transmissions are prioritized over sidelink transmissions. In response to detection of a conflict, the inter-UE coordination feedback is transmitted relative to the slot where the HD or CC event occurs or relative to the slot where reservation of the resources for the sidelink transmissions.
