Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a terminal and a communication method in a wireless communication system. [Background technology]

[0002] In LTE (Long Term Evolution) and successor systems to LTE (e.g., LTE-A (LTE Advanced) and NR (New Radio) (also known as 5G)), D2D (Device to Device) technology is being considered, which allows terminals to communicate directly with each other without going through a base station (e.g., Non-Patent Document 1).

[0003] D2D reduces traffic between terminals and base stations and enables communication between terminals even when the base station becomes unavailable due to a disaster or other reason. Although 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) refers to D2D as a "sidelink," the more general term D2D is used in this specification. However, in the description of the embodiments described below, sidelink is also used as needed.

[0004] D2D communication is broadly divided into D2D discovery (also referred to as D2D discovery) for discovering other terminals with which communication is possible, and D2D communication (also referred to as D2D direct communication, D2D communication, terminal-to-terminal direct communication, etc.) for direct communication between terminals. Hereinafter, when there is no particular distinction between D2D communication, D2D discovery, etc., they will be simply referred to as D2D. Furthermore, signals transmitted and received in D2D will be referred to as D2D signals. Various use cases for services related to Vehicle to Everything (V2X) in NR are being studied (for example, Non-Patent Document 2). [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0005] [Non-Patent Document 1] 3GPP TS 38.211 V16.2.0(2020-06) [Non-patent document 2] 3GPP TR 22.886 V15.1.0(2017-03) Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] Power saving is being considered as an enhancement to the NR sidelink. For example, in Resource Allocation Mode 2, in which a terminal autonomously selects resources, the terminal performs partial sensing on limited resources within a sensing window, and based on the results, selects available resource candidates from the resource selection window.

[0007] In resource allocation mode 2, if sidelink and uplink transmissions overlap in the time domain, the transmissions are dropped or power-limited depending on their respective priorities, but this may result in a decrease in the reliability or delay performance of the sidelink transmissions.

[0008] The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and has as its object to improve the reliability of communication when autonomous resource selection is performed in direct communication between terminals. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] According to the disclosed technique, a receiver that receives first information indicating resources to be used for scheduled uplink transmission; a control unit that determines, from a set of candidate resources based on the first information, a first resource that is not to be used for uplink transmission and a second resource that is to be used for uplink transmission; A terminal is provided, the terminal having: a transmitter that transmits second information related to the first resource or the second resource to another terminal. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] According to the disclosed technology, it is possible to improve the reliability of communication during autonomous resource selection in direct communication between terminals. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the embodiment described below is an example, and the embodiment to which the present invention is applied is not limited to the following embodiment.

[0013] In the operation of the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention, existing technologies are used as appropriate. However, the existing technologies are, for example, but not limited to, the existing LTE. Furthermore, the term "LTE" used in this specification has a broad meaning including LTE-Advanced, a system subsequent to LTE-Advanced (e.g., NR), or a wireless LAN (Local Area Network), unless otherwise specified.

[0014] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present invention, the duplex method may be a TDD (Time Division Duplex) method, an FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) method, or other methods (for example, Flexible Duplex, etc.).

[0015] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present invention, when radio parameters and the like are "configured," it may mean that predetermined values ​​are pre-configured, or that radio parameters notified from the base station 10 or the terminal 20 are set.

[0016] Figure 1 is a diagram for explaining V2X. 3GPP is studying the realization of V2X (Vehicle to Everything) or eV2X (enhanced V2X) by extending D2D functions, and is currently working on specifications. As shown in Figure 1, V2X is part of ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) and is a collective term for V2V (Vehicle to Vehicle), which refers to a form of communication between vehicles; V2I (Vehicle to Infrastructure), which refers to a form of communication between vehicles and roadside units (RSUs) installed on the side of the road; V2N (Vehicle to Network), which refers to a form of communication between vehicles and ITS servers; and V2P (Vehicle to Pedestrian), which refers to a form of communication between vehicles and mobile terminals carried by pedestrians.

[0017] Additionally, 3GPP is studying V2X using LTE or NR cellular communications and device-to-device communications. V2X using cellular communications is also called cellular V2X. NR V2X is being studied to achieve high capacity, low latency, high reliability, and quality of service (QoS) control.

[0018] It is expected that future studies of LTE or NR V2X will be conducted beyond the 3GPP specifications, including ensuring interoperability, reducing costs through implementation of higher layers, using or switching between multiple RATs (Radio Access Technologies), complying with regulations in each country, and methods for acquiring, distributing, managing databases, and using data from LTE or NR V2X platforms.

[0019] In the embodiments of the present invention, a communication device is mainly assumed to be mounted on a vehicle, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to this. For example, the communication device may be a terminal held by a person, a device mounted on a drone or an aircraft, a base station, an RSU, a relay station (relay node), a terminal with scheduling capability, etc.

[0020] Note that SL (Sidelink) may be distinguished from UL (Uplink) or DL ​​(Downlink) based on any one or a combination of the following 1) to 4). SL may also be called by other names. 1) Time domain resource allocation 2) Frequency domain resource allocation 3) Reference synchronization signal (including SLSS (Sidelink Synchronization Signal)) 4) Reference signal used for path loss measurement for transmission power control

[0021] Furthermore, with regard to SL or UL Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), any of CP-OFDM (Cyclic-Prefix OFDM), DFT-S-OFDM (Discrete Fourier Transform - Spread - OFDM), non-transform precoded OFDM, and transform precoded OFDM may be applied.

[0022] In the LTE SL, Mode 3 and Mode 4 are defined for SL resource allocation to terminal 20. In Mode 3, transmission resources are dynamically allocated by DCI (Downlink Control Information) transmitted from base station 10 to terminal 20. Also, in Mode 3, SPS (Semi Persistent Scheduling) is possible. In Mode 4, terminal 20 autonomously selects transmission resources from a resource pool.

[0023] The term "slot" in the embodiments of the present invention may be interpreted as a symbol, a minislot, a subframe, a radio frame, or a TTI (Transmission Time Interval). The term "cell" in the embodiments of the present invention may be interpreted as a cell group, a carrier component, a BWP, a resource pool, a resource, a RAT (Radio Access Technology), a system (including a wireless LAN), or the like.

[0024] In the embodiment of the present invention, the terminal 20 is not limited to a V2X terminal, and may be any type of terminal that performs D2D communication. For example, the terminal 20 may be a terminal carried by a user, such as a smartphone, or may be an IoT (Internet of Things) device, such as a smart meter.

[0025] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a V2X transmission mode (1). In the transmission mode of sidelink communication illustrated in FIG. 2, in step 1, the base station 10 transmits sidelink scheduling to the terminal 20A. Next, the terminal 20A transmits a PSCCH (Physical Sidelink Control Channel) and a PSSCH (Physical Sidelink Shared Channel) to the terminal 20B based on the received scheduling (step 2). The transmission mode of sidelink communication illustrated in FIG. 2 may be referred to as sidelink transmission mode 3 in LTE. In sidelink transmission mode 3 in LTE, Uu-based sidelink scheduling is performed. Uu is a radio interface between a Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) and a User Equipment (UE). The transmission mode of sidelink communication illustrated in FIG. 2 may be referred to as sidelink transmission mode 1 in NR.

[0026] Fig. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example (2) of a V2X transmission mode. In the transmission mode of sidelink communication shown in Fig. 3, in step 1, the terminal 20A transmits the PSCCH and the PSSCH to the terminal 20B using autonomously selected resources. The transmission mode of sidelink communication shown in Fig. 3 may be referred to as sidelink transmission mode 4 in LTE. In sidelink transmission mode 4 in LTE, the UE itself performs resource selection.

[0027] FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a V2X transmission mode (3). In the transmission mode of sidelink communication shown in FIG. 4, in step 1, the terminal 20A transmits the PSCCH and the PSSCH to the terminal 20B using autonomously selected resources. Similarly, the terminal 20B transmits the PSCCH and the PSSCH to the terminal 20A using autonomously selected resources (step 1). The transmission mode of sidelink communication shown in FIG. 4 may be referred to as a sidelink transmission mode 2a in NR. In sidelink transmission mode 2 in NR, the terminal 20 itself performs resource selection.

[0028] FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example (4) of a V2X transmission mode. In the transmission mode of sidelink communication illustrated in FIG. 5, in step 0, a sidelink resource pattern is transmitted from the base station 10 to the terminal 20A via RRC (Radio Resource Control) configuration or is configured in advance. Subsequently, the terminal 20A transmits a PSSCH to the terminal 20B based on the resource pattern (step 1). The transmission mode of sidelink communication illustrated in FIG. 5 may be referred to as a sidelink transmission mode 2c in NR.

[0029] Fig. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example (5) of a V2X transmission mode. In the transmission mode of sidelink communication shown in Fig. 6, in step 1, terminal 20A transmits sidelink scheduling to terminal 20B via a PSCCH. Subsequently, terminal 20B transmits a PSSCH to terminal 20A based on the received scheduling (step 2). The transmission mode of sidelink communication shown in Fig. 6 may be referred to as a sidelink transmission mode 2d in NR.

[0030] Fig. 7 is a diagram for explaining an example (1) of a V2X communication type. The sidelink communication type shown in Fig. 7 is unicast. Terminal 20A transmits a PSCCH and a PSSCH to terminal 20. In the example shown in Fig. 7, terminal 20A unicasts to terminal 20B and also unicasts to terminal 20C.

[0031] Fig. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example (2) of a V2X communication type. The sidelink communication type shown in Fig. 8 is groupcast. Terminal 20A transmits PSCCH and PSSCH to a group to which one or more terminals 20 belong. In the example shown in Fig. 8, the group includes terminal 20B and terminal 20C, and terminal 20A performs groupcast to the group.

[0032] FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining an example (3) of a V2X communication type. The sidelink communication type shown in FIG. 9 is broadcast. Terminal 20A transmits PSCCH and PSSCH to one or more terminals 20. In the example shown in FIG. 9, terminal 20A broadcasts to terminal 20B, terminal 20C, and terminal 20D. Note that terminal 20A shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 may be referred to as a header UE (header-UE).

[0033] In addition, it is expected that NR-V2X will support hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) for sidelink unicast and groupcast. Furthermore, NR-V2X will define sidelink feedback control information (SFCI) including an HARQ response. Furthermore, it is being considered to transmit the SFCI via a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH).

[0034] In the following description, the PSFCH is used for transmitting the HARQ-ACK on the side link, but this is just an example. For example, the HARQ-ACK may be transmitted on the side link using the PSCCH, the PSSCH, or another channel.

[0035] For convenience, information reported by terminal 20 in HARQ will be generally referred to as HARQ-ACK below. This HARQ-ACK may also be referred to as HARQ-ACK information. More specifically, a codebook applied to HARQ-ACK information reported from terminal 20 to base station 10 or the like will be referred to as a HARQ-ACK codebook. The HARQ-ACK codebook defines the bit string of the HARQ-ACK information. Note that in addition to ACK, NACK is also transmitted using "HARQ-ACK".

[0036] Fig. 10 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example (1) of V2X. As shown in Fig. 10, the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention may include terminal 20A and terminal 20B. Note that, although there are actually many user devices, Fig. 10 shows terminal 20A and terminal 20B as an example.

[0037] Hereinafter, when there is no particular distinction between terminals 20A, 20B, etc., they will be simply referred to as "terminal 20" or "user device." While Fig. 10 shows an example in which terminal 20A and terminal 20B are both within the coverage of a cell, the operation in the embodiment of the present invention can also be applied to a case in which terminal 20B is outside the coverage.

[0038] As described above, in this embodiment, the terminal 20 is, for example, a device mounted on a vehicle such as an automobile, and has a cellular communication function as a UE in LTE or NR, and a sidelink function. The terminal 20 may be a general mobile terminal (such as a smartphone). The terminal 20 may also be an RSU. The RSU may be a UE-type RSU having the function of a UE, or a gNB-type RSU having the function of a base station device.

[0039] The terminal 20 does not need to be a device in a single housing. For example, even if various sensors are distributed and arranged inside a vehicle, the terminal 20 may be a device including the various sensors.

[0040] Furthermore, the processing of sidelink transmission data in terminal 20 is basically the same as the processing of UL transmission in LTE or NR. For example, terminal 20 scrambles and modulates codewords of transmission data to generate complex-valued symbols, maps the complex-valued symbols (transmission signals) to one or two layers, and performs precoding. Then, terminal 20 maps the precoded complex-valued symbols to resource elements to generate transmission signals (e.g., complex-valued time-domain SC-FDMA signals), and transmits them from each antenna port.

[0041] Note that the base station 10 has a cellular communication function as a base station in LTE or NR, and a function for enabling communication of the terminal 20 in this embodiment (e.g., resource pool setting, resource allocation, etc.). The base station 10 may also be an RSU (gNB type RSU).

[0042] Furthermore, in the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention, the signal waveform used by terminal 20 for SL or UL may be OFDMA, SC-FDMA, or another signal waveform.

[0043] In step S101, terminal 20A autonomously selects resources to be used for the PSCCH and PSSCH from a resource selection window having a predetermined period. The resource selection window may be set in terminal 20 by base station 10. Here, the predetermined period of the resource selection window may be defined by implementation conditions of the terminal, such as processing time or maximum allowable packet delay time, or may be defined in advance by specifications, or the predetermined period may be referred to as an interval in the time domain.

[0044] In steps S102 and S103, terminal 20A transmits SCI (Sidelink Control Information) via PSCCH and / or PSSCH using the resources autonomously selected in step S101, and transmits SL data via PSSCH. For example, terminal 20A may transmit PSCCH using frequency resources adjacent to the frequency resources of PSSCH in the same time resources as at least a part of the time resources of PSSCH.

[0045] The terminal 20B receives the SCI (PSCCH and / or PSSCH) and SL data (PSSCH) transmitted from the terminal 20A. The received SCI may include information on the PSFCH resource for the terminal 20B to transmit a HARQ-ACK in response to the reception of the data. The terminal 20A may transmit information on the autonomously selected resource in the SCI.

[0046] In step S104, the terminal 20B uses the PSFCH resource determined from the received SCI to transmit a HARQ-ACK for the received data to the terminal 20A.

[0047] In step S105, if the HARQ-ACK received in step S104 indicates a request for retransmission, that is, if it is a NACK (negative acknowledgement), the terminal 20A retransmits the PSCCH and PSSCH to the terminal 20B. The terminal 20A may retransmit the PSCCH and PSSCH using autonomously selected resources.

[0048] If HARQ control involving HARQ feedback is not performed, steps S104 and S105 may not be performed.

[0049] 11 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example (2) of V2X. Blind retransmission without HARQ control may be performed to improve the transmission success rate or reach.

[0050] In step S201, the terminal 20A autonomously selects resources to be used for the PSCCH and the PSSCH from a resource selection window having a predetermined period. The resource selection window may be set to the terminal 20 by the base station 10.

[0051] In steps S202 and S203, terminal 20A transmits SCI via PSCCH and / or PSSCH and transmits SL data via PSSCH using the resources autonomously selected in step S201. For example, terminal 20A may transmit PSCCH using frequency resources adjacent to the frequency resources of the PSSCH in the same time resources as at least a part of the time resources of the PSSCH.

[0052] In step S204, the terminal 20A uses the resource autonomously selected in step S201 to retransmit the SCI via the PSCCH and / or PSSCH and the SL data via the PSSCH to the terminal 20B. The retransmission in step S204 may be performed multiple times.

[0053] If blind retransmission is not performed, step S204 does not have to be performed.

[0054] 12 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example (3) of V2X. The base station 10 may perform sidelink scheduling. That is, the base station 10 may determine sidelink resources to be used by the terminal 20 and transmit information indicating the resources to the terminal 20. Furthermore, when HARQ control involving HARQ feedback is applied, the base station 10 may transmit information indicating PSFCH resources to the terminal 20.

[0055] In step S301, base station 10 performs SL scheduling by transmitting DCI (Downlink Control Information) via PDCCH to terminal 20 A. Hereinafter, for convenience, DCI for SL scheduling will be referred to as SL scheduling DCI.

[0056] Also, in step S301, it is assumed that the base station 10 also transmits DCI for DL ​​scheduling (which may also be called DL allocation) to the terminal 20A via the PDCCH. Hereinafter, for convenience, DCI for DL ​​scheduling will be called DL scheduling DCI. The terminal 20A that has received the DL scheduling DCI receives DL data via the PDSCH using resources specified in the DL scheduling DCI.

[0057] In steps S302 and S303, terminal 20A transmits SCI (Sidelink Control Information) via PSCCH and / or PSSCH using resources specified in the SL scheduling DCI, and also transmits SL data via PSSCH. Note that only PSSCH resources may be specified in the SL scheduling DCI. In this case, for example, terminal 20A may transmit PSCCH using frequency resources adjacent to the frequency resources of PSSCH, in the same time resources as at least a part of the time resources of PSSCH.

[0058] The terminal 20B receives the SCI (PSCCH and / or PSSCH) and SL data (PSSCH) transmitted from the terminal 20A. The SCI received via the PSCCH and / or PSSCH includes information on the PSFCH resource used by the terminal 20B to transmit a HARQ-ACK in response to reception of the data.

[0059] The resource information is included in the DL scheduling DCI or SL scheduling DCI transmitted from the base station 10 in step S301, and the terminal 20A acquires the resource information from the DL scheduling DCI or SL scheduling DCI and includes it in the SCI. Alternatively, the resource information may not be included in the DCI transmitted from the base station 10, and the terminal 20A may autonomously include the resource information in the SCI and transmit it.

[0060] In step S304, the terminal 20B uses the PSFCH resource determined from the received SCI to transmit a HARQ-ACK for the received data to the terminal 20A.

[0061] In step S305, the terminal 20A transmits a HARQ-ACK, for example, at a timing (for example, slot-by-slot timing) specified by the DL scheduling DCI (or the SL scheduling DCI) using a PUCCH (Physical uplink control channel) resource specified by the DL scheduling DCI (or the SL scheduling DCI), and the base station 10 receives the HARQ-ACK. The codebook for the HARQ-ACK may include a HARQ-ACK received from the terminal 20B or a HARQ-ACK generated based on a PSFCH that was not received, as well as a HARQ-ACK for DL ​​data. However, if no DL data is allocated, for example, a HARQ-ACK for DL ​​data is not included. In NR Rel. 16, the codebook for the HARQ-ACK does not include a HARQ-ACK for DL ​​data.

[0062] If HARQ control involving HARQ feedback is not performed, step S304 and / or step S305 may not be performed.

[0063] FIG. 13 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example (4) of V2X. As described above, in the NR sidelink, it is supported that an HARQ response is transmitted on a PSFCH. Note that the PSFCH format may be the same as, for example, PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) format 0. That is, the PSFCH format may be a sequence-based format in which the PRB (Physical Resource Block) size is 1 and ACKs and NACKs are identified by differences in sequence and / or cyclic shifts. The PSFCH format is not limited to this. The PSFCH resource may be allocated to the last symbol or the last multiple symbols of a slot. Furthermore, a period N is set or predefined for the PSFCH resource. The period N may be set or predefined on a slot-by-slot basis.

[0064] In FIG. 13, the vertical axis corresponds to the frequency domain, and the horizontal axis corresponds to the time domain. The PSCCH may be placed in the first symbol of a slot, or in multiple symbols from the first, or in multiple symbols from a symbol other than the first. The PSFCH may be placed in the last symbol of a slot, or in multiple symbols from the last. Note that the above-mentioned "first symbol of a slot" and "last symbol of a slot" may not take into account symbols for AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and symbols for transmission / reception switching. That is, for example, when one slot is composed of 14 symbols, the "first symbol of a slot" and the "last symbol of a slot" may refer to the first and last symbols, respectively, of the 12 symbols excluding the first and last symbols. In the example shown in FIG. 13, three subchannels are configured in the resource pool, and two PSFCHs are placed three slots after the slot in which the PSSCH is placed. The arrow from the PSSCH to the PSFCH indicates an example of a PSFCH associated with the PSSCH.

[0065] When the HARQ response in NR-V2X groupcast is groupcast option 2, which transmits an ACK or NACK, it is necessary to determine the resources to be used for transmitting and receiving the PSFCH. As shown in FIG. 13, in step S401, terminal 20A, which is a transmitting terminal 20, performs groupcast via SL-SCH to terminals 20B, 20C, and 20D, which are receiving terminals 20. In the following step S402, terminal 20B uses PSFCH#B, terminal 20C uses PSFCH#C, and terminal 20D uses PSFCH#D to transmit a HARQ response to terminal 20A. Here, as shown in the example of FIG. 13, if the number of available PSFCH resources is smaller than the number of receiving terminals 20 belonging to the group, it is necessary to determine how to allocate the PSFCH resources. Note that the transmitting terminal 20 may know the number of receiving terminals 20 in the groupcast. Note that in groupcast option 1, only a NACK is transmitted as the HARQ response, and an ACK is not transmitted.

[0066] FIG. 14 is a diagram illustrating an example of sensing operation in NR. In resource allocation mode 2, a terminal 20 selects a resource and performs transmission. As shown in FIG. 14, the terminal 20 performs sensing in a sensing window within a resource pool. Through sensing, the terminal 20 receives a resource reservation field or a resource assignment field included in an SCI transmitted from another terminal 20, and identifies available resource candidates within a resource selection window within the resource pool based on the field. Then, the terminal 20 randomly selects a resource from the available resource candidates.

[0067] 14, the resource pool configuration may have a period. For example, the period may be a period of 10240 milliseconds. SLFrom slot t Tmax SL In this example, the resource pool is set up to the period. The resource pool in each period may have an area set by, for example, a bitmap.

[0068] Also, as shown in FIG. 14, the transmission trigger in terminal 20 occurs in slot n, and the priority of the transmission is p TX The terminal 20 receives data from slot n-T0 to slot nT proc,0 In the sensing window up to the slot immediately before the priority p RX When an SCI is detected within the sensing window and the RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) is greater than a threshold, the resource in the resource selection window corresponding to the SCI is excluded. When an SCI is detected within the sensing window and the RSRP is less than a threshold, the resource in the resource selection window corresponding to the SCI is not excluded. The threshold is, for example, a value determined by the priority p TX and priority p RX A threshold Th is set or defined for each resource in the sensing window based on pTX,pRX may be.

[0069] Also, slot t shown in FIG. m SL As such, resources in the resource selection window that are candidates for resource reservation information corresponding to resources in the sensing window that were not monitored, for example for transmission, are excluded.

[0070] In the resource selection window from slot n+T1 to slot n+T2, resources occupied by other UEs are identified, and the remaining resources are available resource candidates, excluding the identified resources, as shown in Figure 14. The set of available resource candidates is denoted as S A Then, S AIf the threshold Th is set for each resource in the sensing window, pTX,pRX The threshold Th may be increased by 3 dB and resource identification may be performed again. pTX,pRX By increasing the number of resources that are not excluded because their RSRP is less than the threshold, the set of resource candidates S A may be set to be 20% or more of the resource selection window. A If the threshold Th is set for each resource in the sensing window, pTX,pRX The operation of increasing the signal level by 3 dB and performing resource identification again may be repeated.

[0071] The lower layer of the terminal 20 is S A The upper layer of the terminal 20 may report S A The terminal 20 may perform a random selection on the resources to be used. The terminal 20 may perform sidelink transmission using the determined resources.

[0072] In the above-mentioned Figure 14, the operation of the transmitting terminal 20 is explained, but the receiving terminal 20 may detect data transmission from another terminal 20 based on the results of sensing or partial sensing, and receive data from the other terminal 20.

[0073] FIG. 15 is a flowchart showing an example of preemption in NR. FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of preemption in NR. In step S501, terminal 20 performs sensing in a sensing window. When terminal 20 performs a power saving operation, sensing may be performed in a predefined limited period. Next, terminal 20 identifies each resource in the resource selection window based on the sensing result and generates a set of resource candidates S A Then, the terminal 20 determines a set of resource candidates S AA resource set (r_0, r_1, . . . ) for determining preemption is selected from the resource set (r_0, r_1, . . . ) (S503). The resource set may be notified to the PHY layer from an upper layer as the resource for determining whether preemption has occurred.

[0074] In step S504, the terminal 20 re-identifies each resource in the resource selection window based on the sensing result at the timing T(r_0)-T3 shown in FIG. 16 to generate a set S of resource candidates. A , and further determines whether to preempt the resource set (r_0, r_1, . . . ) based on the priority. For example, in r_1 shown in FIG. 16, an SCI transmitted from another terminal 20 is detected by re-sensing, and S A When preemption is enabled, if the value prio_RX indicating the priority of the SCI transmitted from another terminal 20 is lower than the value prio_TX indicating the priority of the transport block transmitted from the terminal itself, the terminal 20 determines that the resource r_1 has been preempted. Note that the lower the value indicating the priority, the higher the priority. In other words, if the value prio_RX indicating the priority of the SCI transmitted from another terminal 20 is higher than the value prio_TX indicating the priority of the transport block transmitted from the terminal itself, the terminal 20 determines that the resource r_1 has been preempted. A , pl8), this priority is set as prio_pre. At this time, if the value prio_RX indicating the priority of the SCI transmitted from the other terminal 20 is lower than prio_pre and prio_RX is lower than the value prio_TX indicating the priority of the transport block transmitted from the terminal itself, the terminal 20 determines that the resource r_1 has been preempted.

[0075] In step S505, if preemption is determined in step S504, the terminal 20 notifies the upper layer of preemption, causes the upper layer to reselect resources, and ends the preemption.

[0076] In the NR Release 17 sidelink, power saving based on random resource selection and partial sensing is being considered. For example, for power saving, the random resource selection and partial sensing of the sidelink in LTE Release 14 may be applied to resource allocation mode 2 of the NR Release 16 sidelink. A terminal 20 to which partial sensing is applied performs reception and sensing only in specific slots within a sensing window.

[0077] Furthermore, for the NR Release 17 sidelink, enhanced Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communication (eURLLC) is being considered with inter-UE coordination as a baseline. For example, the terminal 20A may share information indicating a resource set with the terminal 20B, and the terminal 20B may take this information into consideration when selecting resources for transmission.

[0078] In the terminal 20, when SL transmission and UL transmission overlap at least in the time domain, the reliability and delay performance of the SL transmission are affected. For example, the terminal 20 decides to prioritize either the overlapping SL transmission or the UL transmission. Then, it decides the operation depending on the terminal's capabilities. For example, if simultaneous SL and UL transmission is possible, it reduces the power of non-prioritized transmissions so that the total transmission power does not exceed the maximum value and performs simultaneous transmission. Also, for example, if simultaneous SL and UL transmission is not possible, it drops the non-prioritized transmission and performs the prioritized transmission.

[0079] Additionally, overlapping UL transmissions and SL receptions can also affect the reliability and delay performance of SL communications. For example, terminal 20 may decide to prioritize either the overlapping UL transmission or SL reception. Subsequently, for example, terminal 20 may drop the non-prioritized communication and perform the prioritized communication.

[0080] As described above, although the prior art specifies how to handle the case where UL transmission and SL transmission or reception overlap, the impact on performance is unavoidable when the overlap occurs.

[0081] Therefore, the SL transmitting terminal 20A may perform operations related to resource allocation based on at least one of the pieces of information shown in a) to c) below.

[0082] a) Information received from the network or base station 10 relating to the UL transmission of the terminal 20A b) Information received from the SL receiving terminal 20B relating to the UL transmission of the terminal 20B c) Information related to the UL transmission of the SL receiving terminal 20B received from the network or base station 10

[0083] The definitions and acquisition methods of the information shown in a) to c) above will be explained below, along with details of operations related to resource allocation.

[0084] As described above, the SL transmitting terminal 20 performs resource allocation based on the above information, thereby preventing overlap between SL transmission and UL transmission or between SL reception and UL transmission, thereby preventing degradation of reliability and delay performance of sidelink communication due to overlap.

[0085] Fig. 17 is a diagram showing an example (1) of a communication situation in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0089] The above information may be shared or transmitted from terminal 20B to terminal 20A via any of PHY, MAC, and PC5-RRC signaling. Furthermore, terminal 20B may share the above information with terminal 20A at any of the following triggers 1)-3).

As shown in Fig. 19, terminal 20A performs SL transmission to terminal 20B, and also receives a UL grant from base station 10 and performs UL transmission. c) The information related to UL transmission of SL receiving terminal 20B received from the network or base station 10 is information related to resources from which terminal 20B plans to perform UL transmission, and may be at least one of the information shown in 1)-5) below.

In step S611, the terminal 20 selects a resource set S A At step S611, S A may be set as the initial resource set. Then, the terminal 20 performs sensing (S612). Note that steps S611 and S612 may be performed in the reverse order. In the following step S613, the terminal 20 determines the initial resource set S based on the RSRP obtained by sensing.

[0138] (Hardware configuration) The block diagrams (FIGS. 25 and 26) used to explain the above embodiments show functional blocks. These functional blocks (components) are realized by any combination of at least one of hardware and software. Furthermore, the method of realizing each functional block is not particularly limited. That is, each functional block may be realized using a single device that is physically or logically coupled, or may be realized using two or more physically or logically separated devices that are connected directly or indirectly (for example, by wire, wirelessly, etc.) and these multiple devices. The functional block may be realized by combining the single device or the multiple devices with software.

[0140] For example, the base station 10, the terminal 20, etc. according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may function as a computer that performs processing of the wireless communication method of the present disclosure. Fig. 27 is a diagram illustrating an example of the hardware configuration of the base station 10 and the terminal 20 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The base station 10 and the terminal 20 described above may be physically configured as a computer device including a processor 1001, a storage device 1002, an auxiliary storage device 1003, a communication device 1004, an input device 1005, an output device 1006, a bus 1007, etc.

[0151] (Summary of the embodiment) As described above, according to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a terminal that includes a receiving unit that receives information related to resource reservation in a sensing window, a control unit that excludes resources from a set of resource candidates based on RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) at the time the information related to resource reservation is received and a priority included in the information related to resource reservation, and selects resources to be used for transmission from the set of resource candidates after the exclusion, and a transmitting unit that transmits to another terminal using the selected resources, and the control unit that excludes resources from the set of resource candidates or selects resources to be used for transmission from the set of resource candidates after the exclusion, based on information related to uplink transmission.

[0152] With the above configuration, terminal 20 can improve the reliability of sidelink transmission and reception by taking into account time domain resources used for uplink in sensing-based resource identification and resource selection in sidelink. That is, in direct terminal-to-terminal communication, the reliability of communication during autonomous resource selection can be improved.

[0153] The information regarding the uplink transmission may be information indicating resources to be used for uplink transmission scheduled for the terminal itself or the other terminal. With this configuration, the terminal 20 can improve reliability of sidelink transmission and reception by taking into account time domain resources used for uplink in resource identification and resource selection based on sensing in the sidelink.

[0154] The controller may exclude resources in the time domain where uplink transmission is performed from the set of resource candidates based on the information related to the uplink transmission. With this configuration, the terminal 20 can improve reliability of sidelink transmission and reception by not using resources in the time domain used for uplink in resource identification and resource selection based on the sensing in the sidelink.

[0155] The controller may exclude, from the set of resource candidates, resources of a Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH) and a Physical Sidelink Shared Channel (PSSCH) corresponding to a Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel (PSFCH) opportunity in the time domain where uplink transmission is performed, based on the information related to the uplink transmission. With this configuration, in resource identification and resource selection based on sensing in the sidelink, the terminal 20 can improve reliability of sidelink transmission and reception by not using resources for data corresponding to a PSFCH that overlaps with time domain resources used for the uplink.

[0156] The controller may select resources to be used for transmission from the set of resource candidates after the exclusion, from resources other than resources in a time domain in which uplink transmission is performed. With this configuration, the terminal 20 can improve reliability of sidelink transmission and reception by taking into account time domain resources used for uplink in resource identification and resource selection based on sensing in sidelink.

[0157] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a communication method in which a terminal executes a reception procedure of receiving information related to resource reservation in a sensing window, a control procedure of excluding resources from a set of resource candidates based on RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) at the time the information related to resource reservation is received and a priority included in the information related to resource reservation, and selecting resources to be used for transmission from the set of resource candidates after the exclusion, a transmission procedure of transmitting to another terminal using the selected resources, and a procedure of excluding resources from the set of resource candidates or selecting resources to be used for transmission from the set of resource candidates after the exclusion based on information related to uplink transmission.

[0158] With the above configuration, terminal 20 can improve the reliability of sidelink transmission and reception by taking into account time domain resources used for uplink in sensing-based resource identification and resource selection in sidelink. That is, in direct terminal-to-terminal communication, the reliability of communication during autonomous resource selection can be improved.

The division of items in the above description is not essential to the present invention; two or more items may be combined as needed, and items described in one item may apply to items described in another item (unless inconsistent). The boundaries between functional units or processing units in the functional block diagram do not necessarily correspond to the boundaries between physical components. The operations of multiple functional units may be performed by a single physical component, or the operations of a single functional unit may be performed by multiple physical components. The order of the processing steps described in the embodiments may be reversed as long as there is no contradiction.

[0162] The order of the procedures, sequences, flowcharts, etc. of each aspect / embodiment described herein may be changed unless it is consistent. For example, the methods described in this disclosure present elements of various steps using an example order and are not limited to the particular order presented.

[0163] In this specification, a specific operation that is described as being performed by the base station 10 may also be performed by its upper node in some cases. In a network consisting of one or more network nodes having the base station 10, it is clear that various operations performed for communication with the terminal 20 may be performed by at least one of the base station 10 and another network node other than the base station 10 (such as, but not limited to, an MME or an S-GW). Although the above example illustrates a case where there is one other network node other than the base station 10, the other network node may be a combination of multiple other network nodes (such as an MME and an S-GW).

[0164] The information, signals, etc. described in the present disclosure may be output from a higher layer (or a lower layer) to a lower layer (or a higher layer), or may be input / output via multiple network nodes.

[0165] Input and output information may be stored in a specific location (for example, memory) or may be managed using a management table. Input and output information may be overwritten, updated, or added to. Output information may be deleted. Input information may be sent to another device.

[0166] In the present disclosure, the determination may be made based on a value represented by one bit (0 or 1), a Boolean value (true or false), or a numerical comparison (e.g., comparison with a predetermined value).

[0168] Software, instructions, information, etc. may also be transmitted or received over a transmission medium. For example, if software is transmitted from a website, server, or other remote source using wired technologies (such as coaxial cable, fiber optic cable, twisted pair, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)), and / or wireless technologies (such as infrared, microwave), then these wired and / or wireless technologies are included within the definition of transmission media.

[0169] The information, signals, etc. described in this disclosure may be represented using any of a variety of different technologies. For example, data, instructions, commands, information, signals, bits, symbols, chips, etc. that may be referred to throughout the above description may be represented by voltages, currents, electromagnetic waves, magnetic fields or magnetic particles, optical fields or photons, or any combination thereof.

[0170] Note that terms explained in this disclosure and terms necessary for understanding this disclosure may be replaced with terms having the same or similar meanings. For example, at least one of a channel and a symbol may be a signal (signaling). Furthermore, a signal may be a message. Furthermore, a component carrier (CC) may be called a carrier frequency, a cell, a frequency carrier, etc.

[0171] As used in this disclosure, the terms "system" and "network" are used interchangeably.

[0172] Furthermore, the information, parameters, etc. described in the present disclosure may be expressed using absolute values, may be expressed using relative values ​​from a predetermined value, or may be expressed using other corresponding information. For example, a radio resource may be indicated by an index.

[0173] The names used for the above-described parameters are not intended to be limiting in any way. Furthermore, the mathematical expressions using these parameters may differ from those explicitly disclosed in this disclosure. The various channels (e.g., PUCCH, PDCCH, etc.) and information elements may be identified by any suitable names, and therefore the various names assigned to these various channels and information elements are not intended to be limiting in any way.

[0174] In this disclosure, terms such as "base station (BS)," "radio base station," "base station," "fixed station," "NodeB," "eNodeB (eNB)," "gNodeB (gNB)," "access point," "transmission point," "reception point," "transmission / reception point," "cell," "sector," "cell group," "carrier," and "component carrier" may be used interchangeably. Base stations may also be referred to by terms such as macrocell, small cell, femtocell, and picocell.

[0175] A base station can accommodate one or more (e.g., three) cells. When a base station accommodates multiple cells, the overall coverage area of ​​the base station can be divided into multiple smaller areas, and each smaller area can be provided with communication service by a base station subsystem (e.g., a small indoor base station (RRH: Remote Radio Head)). The term "cell" or "sector" refers to a part or the entire coverage area of ​​a base station and / or base station subsystem that provides communication service within this coverage.

[0176] In this disclosure, the terms "Mobile Station (MS)," "user terminal," "User Equipment (UE)," "terminal," etc. may be used interchangeably.

[0177] A mobile station may also be referred to by those skilled in the art as a subscriber station, mobile unit, subscriber unit, wireless unit, remote unit, mobile device, wireless device, wireless communication device, remote device, mobile subscriber station, access terminal, mobile terminal, wireless terminal, remote terminal, handset, user agent, mobile client, client, or some other suitable terminology.

[0178] At least one of the base station and the mobile station may be called a transmitting device, a receiving device, a communication device, etc. At least one of the base station and the mobile station may be a device mounted on a mobile body, or the mobile body itself. The mobile body may be a vehicle (e.g., a car, an airplane, etc.), an unmanned mobile body (e.g., a drone, an autonomous vehicle, etc.), or a robot (manned or unmanned). At least one of the base station and the mobile station may also include devices that do not necessarily move during communication operations. For example, at least one of the base station and the mobile station may be an IoT (Internet of Things) device such as a sensor.

[0179] Furthermore, a base station in the present disclosure may be read as a user terminal. For example, the aspects / embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to a configuration in which communication between a base station and a user terminal is replaced with communication between a plurality of terminals 20 (which may be called, for example, D2D (Device-to-Device) or V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything)). In this case, the terminal 20 may be configured to have the functions of the base station 10 described above. Furthermore, terms such as "uplink" and "downlink" may be read as terms corresponding to terminal-to-terminal communication (for example, "side"). For example, terms such as an uplink channel and a downlink channel may be read as a side channel.

[0180] Similarly, the user terminal in the present disclosure may be read as a base station, in which case the base station may be configured to have the functions of the user terminal described above.

[0181] As used in this disclosure, the terms "determining" and "determining" may encompass a wide variety of actions. "Determining" and "determining" may include, for example, judging, calculating, computing, processing, deriving, investigating, looking up, searching, inquiring (e.g., searching in a table, database, or other data structure), ascertaining, and the like. "Determining" and "determining" may also include receiving (e.g., receiving information), transmitting (e.g., sending information), input, output, accessing (e.g., accessing data in memory), and the like. Furthermore, "judgment" and "decision" can include regarding resolving, selecting, choosing, establishing, comparing, etc. as having been "judged" or "decided." In other words, "judgment" and "decision" can include regarding some action as having been "judged" or "decided." Furthermore, "judgment (decision)" can be interpreted as "assuming," "expecting," "considering," etc.

[0182] The terms "connected," "coupled," or any variation thereof, refer to any direct or indirect connection or coupling between two or more elements, and may include the presence of one or more intermediate elements between two elements that are "connected" or "coupled" to each other. The coupling or connection between elements may be physical, logical, or a combination thereof. For example, "connected" may be read as "access." As used in this disclosure, two elements may be considered to be "connected" or "coupled" to each other using one or more wires, cables, and / or printed electrical connections, as well as electromagnetic energy having wavelengths in the radio frequency range, microwave range, and optical (both visible and invisible) range, as some non-limiting and non-exhaustive examples.

[0183] The reference signal may be abbreviated as RS (Reference Signal) or may be called a pilot depending on the applicable standard.

[0184] As used in this disclosure, the phrase "based on" does not mean "based only on," unless expressly stated otherwise. In other words, the phrase "based on" means both "based only on" and "based at least on."

[0185] As used in this disclosure, any reference to an element using a designation such as "first," "second," etc. does not generally limit the quantity or order of those elements. These designations may be used in this disclosure as a convenient method of distinguishing between two or more elements. Thus, a reference to a first and a second element does not imply that only two elements may be employed or that the first element must in some way precede the second element.

[0186] The "means" in the configuration of each of the above devices may be replaced with "part," "circuit," "device," etc.

[0187] When used in this disclosure, the terms "include," "including," and variations thereof are intended to be inclusive, similar to the term "comprising." Furthermore, when used in this disclosure, the term "or" is not intended to be an exclusive or.

[0188] A radio frame may be composed of one or more frames in the time domain. Each of the one or more frames in the time domain may be called a subframe. A subframe may further be composed of one or more slots in the time domain. A subframe may have a fixed time length (e.g., 1 ms) that is independent of numerology.

[0189] Numerology may be communication parameters that apply to at least one of transmission and reception of a signal or channel, such as subcarrier spacing (SCS), bandwidth, symbol length, cyclic prefix length, transmission time interval (TTI), number of symbols per TTI, radio frame structure, specific filtering operations performed by the transceiver in the frequency domain, and specific windowing operations performed by the transceiver in the time domain.

[0190] A slot may be composed of one or more symbols (such as an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbol or a Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) symbol) in the time domain. A slot may be a time unit based on numerology.

[0191] A slot may include multiple minislots. Each minislot may consist of one or multiple symbols in the time domain. A minislot may also be called a subslot. A minislot may consist of fewer symbols than a slot. A PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted in a time unit larger than a minislot may be called PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type A. A PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted using a minislot may be called PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type B.

[0192] The radio frame, subframe, slot, minislot, and symbol all represent time units for transmitting signals, and may be referred to by other names corresponding to the radio frame, subframe, slot, minislot, and symbol.

[0193] For example, one subframe may be called a transmission time interval (TTI), multiple consecutive subframes may be called a TTI, or one slot or one minislot may be called a TTI. That is, at least one of the subframe and the TTI may be a subframe (1 ms) in existing LTE, a period shorter than 1 ms (for example, 1-13 symbols), or a period longer than 1 ms. Note that the unit representing the TTI may be called a slot, minislot, etc. instead of a subframe.

[0194] Here, TTI refers to, for example, the smallest time unit for scheduling in wireless communication. For example, in an LTE system, a base station performs scheduling to allocate wireless resources (such as frequency bandwidth and transmission power that can be used by each terminal 20) to each terminal 20 in TTI units. Note that the definition of TTI is not limited to this.

[0195] The TTI may be a transmission time unit for a channel-encoded data packet (transport block), a code block, a code word, etc., or may be a processing unit for scheduling, link adaptation, etc. When a TTI is given, the time interval (e.g., the number of symbols) to which a transport block, a code block, a code word, etc. is actually mapped may be shorter than the TTI.

[0196] When one slot or one minislot is called a TTI, one or more TTIs (i.e., one or more slots or one or more minislots) may be the minimum time unit for scheduling. Also, the number of slots (minislots) constituting the minimum time unit for scheduling may be controlled.

[0197] A TTI having a time length of 1 ms may be called a regular TTI (TTI in LTE Rel. 8-12), normal TTI, long TTI, regular subframe, normal subframe, long subframe, slot, etc. A TTI shorter than a regular TTI may be called a shortened TTI, short TTI, partial or fractional TTI, shortened subframe, short subframe, minislot, subslot, slot, etc.

[0198] In addition, a long TTI (e.g., a normal TTI, a subframe, etc.) may be interpreted as a TTI having a time length of more than 1 ms, and a short TTI (e.g., a shortened TTI, etc.) may be interpreted as a TTI having a TTI length shorter than the TTI length of a long TTI and equal to or greater than 1 ms.

[0199] A resource block (RB) is a resource allocation unit in the time domain and frequency domain, and may include one or more consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain. The number of subcarriers included in an RB may be the same regardless of numerology, for example, 12. The number of subcarriers included in an RB may also be determined based on numerology.

[0200] The time domain of an RB may include one or more symbols and may have a length of one slot, one minislot, one subframe, or one TTI. One TTI, one subframe, etc. may each be composed of one or more resource blocks.

[0201] Note that one or more RBs may also be called a physical resource block (PRB), a sub-carrier group (SCG), a resource element group (REG), a PRB pair, an RB pair, or the like.

[0202] Furthermore, a resource block may be composed of one or more resource elements (REs). For example, one RE may be a radio resource region of one subcarrier and one symbol.

[0203] A Bandwidth Part (BWP) (which may also be referred to as a fractional bandwidth) may represent a subset of contiguous common resource blocks (RBs) for a given numerology on a given carrier, where the common RBs may be identified by their index relative to a common reference point of the carrier. PRBs may be defined in a given BWP and numbered within that BWP.

[0204] The BWP may include a BWP for UL (UL BWP) and a BWP for DL ​​(DL BWP). One or more BWPs may be set for the terminal 20 within one carrier.

[0205] At least one of the configured BWPs may be active, and the terminal 20 may not expect to transmit or receive a predetermined signal / channel outside the active BWP. Note that the terms "cell," "carrier," and the like in this disclosure may be read as "BWP."

[0206] The above-described structures of radio frames, subframes, slots, minislots, symbols, etc. are merely examples. For example, the number of subframes included in a radio frame, the number of slots per subframe or radio frame, the number of minislots included in a slot, the number of symbols and RBs included in a slot or minislot, the number of subcarriers included in an RB, the number of symbols in a TTI, the symbol length, the cyclic prefix (CP) length, etc. may be changed in various ways.

[0207] In this disclosure, where articles are added by translation, such as a, an, and the in English, the disclosure may include that the nouns following these articles are in the plural form.

[0208] In the present disclosure, the term "A and B are different" may mean "A and B are different from each other." The term may also mean "A and B are each different from C." Terms such as "separate" and "coupled" may also be interpreted in the same way as "different."

[0209] Each aspect / embodiment described in this disclosure may be used alone, in combination, or switched depending on the implementation. Furthermore, notification of predetermined information (e.g., notification that "X is true") is not limited to being done explicitly, but may be done implicitly (e.g., by not notifying the predetermined information).

[0210] In this disclosure, S A is an example of a set of resource candidates.
