“…Protocol stacks for inband and outband D2D communication have been introduced in [100] and [101], respectively. In [100], the modifications in terms of architecture and protocol have been given, that need to be made to the existing cellular networks. An important architectural modification involves addition of a D2D server in or out of the core network, along with suitable interfaces.…”

Abstract-A constant need to increase the network capacity for meeting the growing demands of the subscribers has led to the evolution of cellular communication networks from the first generation (1G) to the fifth generation (5G). There will be billions of connected devices in the near future. Such a large number of connections are expected to be heterogeneous in nature, demanding higher data rates, lesser delays, enhanced system capacity and superior throughput. The available spectrum resources are limited and need to be flexibly used by the mobile network operators (MNOs) to cope with the rising demands. An emerging facilitator of the upcoming high data rate demanding next generation networks (NGNs) is device-to-device (D2D) communication. An extensive survey on device-to-device (D2D) communication has been presented in this paper, including the plus points it offers; the key open issues associated with it like peer discovery, resource allocation etc, demanding special attention of the research community; some of its integrant technologies like millimeter wave D2D (mmWave), ultra dense networks (UDNs), cognitive D2D, handover procedure in D2D and its numerous use cases. Architecture is suggested aiming to fulfill all the subscriber demands in an optimal manner. The Appendix mentions some ongoing standardization activities and research projects of D2D communication.Index Terms-Mobile network operators (MNOs), peer discovery, ultra dense networks (UDNs), millimeter wave (mmWave), next generation networks (NGNs), device-to-device (D2D) communication I. INTRODUCTIONoday the number of hand-held devices is drastically increasing, with a rising demand for higher data rate applications. In order to meet the needs of the next generation applications, the present data rates need a refinement. The fifth generation (5G) networks are expected and will have to fulfill these rising demands. A competent technology of the next generation networks (NGNs) is Deviceto-Device (D2D) Communication, which is expected to play an indispensable role in the approaching era of wireless communication. The use of D2D communication did not gain much importance in the previous generations of wireless communication, but in 5G networks, it is expected to be a vital part. The rising trends between the devices, enhance spectral efficiency and system capacity [2], with reduced latency within the networks. Such a technique is essential for fulfilling the chief goals of the mobile network operators (MNOs).D2D communication allows communication between two devices, without the participation of the Base Station (BS), or the evolved NodeB (eNB). Proximate devices can directly communicate with each other by establishing direct links. Due to the small distance between the D2D users, it supports power saving within the network, which is not possible in case of conventional cellular communication.It promises improvement in energy efficiency, throughput and delay. It has the potential to effectively offload traffic from the network core. Hence, it is a very ...

“…Figure 7 points out seven new interfaces, PC1, PC2, PC3, PC4, PC5, PC6, and SGi, which are added in 3GPP architecture [66] for incorporating ProSe applications, functions, and application server. The authors in [64,67] propose enhanced protocol stacks by considering both cellular and D2D communications. According to these protocols, a device can simultaneously communicate with other devices via cellular, as well as D2D communication modes.…”

Device-to-device (D2D) communication facilitates two users in close proximity to communicate directly, bypassing the Evolved Node B (eNB). It provides several advantages like increased spectral efficiency, energy efficiency, decreased transmission delay, and traffic offloading from eNBs. Native support of D2D communications in the emerging fifth generation cellular systems raises significant challenges, like interference, mode selection, resource allocation, and security. Ratification of standards and collaborative research works between industries and academia are now focusing to gradually resolve these challenges. In this paper, we present a novel survey of D2D communications. Our survey provides a new classification of major research works in D2D communications on the basis of frequency and control. Subsequently, major D2D architectures, protocols, and relevant applications are discussed. We also make a detailed review of the analysis techniques and point out open research challenges.

“…In order to allow operator-controlled device and service discovery along with D2D connection set-up, the EPC must have additional functionalities for managing D2D services. One of these methods, to provide the enlisted functionalities, is suggested in [6], where two totally new entities are added in the system. They are the D2D Server and the Application Server (AppSer).…”

to-device (D2D) communication architecture underlying Long Term EvolutionAdvance (LTE-A) technology in hexagonal cell environment. The paper also includes the goal to develop a technique for efficient positioning of user equipment and implementation of connection handover for this D2D communication ProSe. The technique for handover is based on Observed Time Difference Of Arrival (OTDOA) positioning approach along with the Positioning Reference Signal (PRS), mentioned inRelease 9 of LTE technology. It is shown through simulations that the proposed system will reduce the probability of outage i.e. the probability of the UEs running out of battery power before their target usage time. The scheme will also reduce the probability of connection dropping, thereby improving performance of whole system.
