用于中继传输的方法和装置以及中继终端设备 技术领域
本发明实施例涉及通信领域,并且更具体地,涉及用于中继传输的方法和装置以及中继终端设备。

设备到设备(Device-to-Device,D2D)技术是指邻近的终端设备可以在近距离范围内通过直连链路的方式进行数据传输,而不需要通过接入网设备进行转发。D2D通信可以与蜂窝系统共享授权频带资源,形成统一的混合蜂窝-D2D网络。在该混合网络中,部分终端设备可以仍工作于蜂窝通信模式,即通过接入网设备与其它终端设备通信,而部分终端设备可以工作于D2D通信,即通过与其它终端设备之间的直通链路与其它终端设备进行数据的直接传输。
此外,可以通过D2D中继辅助接入网设备和终端设备之间的数据传输,此时,D2D中继与D2D终端之间采用D2D通信模式,而D2D中继和接入网设备之间使用蜂窝通信模式。D2D中继使用半双工的方式接收和转发数据,并且在接收和转发的过程中进行模式转换。
