具体实施方式
本申请的实施方式部分使用的术语仅用于对本申请的具体实施例进行解释,而非旨在限定本申请。
参见图2,图2示出了D2D通信系统中时频域资源示意图。
在时域,1个时隙(slot)的长度是0.5ms,一般配置下包括7个单频波频分多址(Single-carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access,SC-FDMA)符号。1个子帧由2个时隙组成,大小为1ms。1个无线帧包括10个子帧,1个无线帧的长度为10ms。子帧以 子帧索引标识。
在频域,D2D旁路(sidelink)带宽包括多个子载波,不同的旁路带宽对应的子载波的数目不同。带宽可以通过频域上包含的物理资源块(physical resource block,PRB)的个数来表示。
时域上对应0.5ms、频域上对应12个连续的子载波的单元称为物理资源块。每个物理资源块在时域上通过时域索引指示,在频域上通过频域索引指示。时域索引可以为子帧索引,频域索引可以为PRB索引。例如,图2中示出的物理资源块通过时域索引0和频域索引0共同指示。网络设备在为第一终端调度资源时,以一个子帧(1ms)内的两个PRB,即PRB对(PRB-pair)作为基本的物理资源单位进行调度。
需要说明的是,图2为长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)技术的时频域资源示意图,在未来的新的无线接入技术(New Radio Access Technology,New RAT)中,例如未来即将面市的4.5G、5G等,子帧、PRB、PRB-pair等的定义及名称,以及子载波宽度、时隙的长度、传输的符号可能会发生变化,本申请同样适用于变化后的场景。
参见图1,图1所示通信系统中,网络设备为第一终端配置无线资源,第一终端使用配置的无线资源和第二终端进行信号传输。
下面说明在现有技术中,网络设备为第一终端分配无线资源以实现D2D通信的过程。D2D通信包括旁路通信(sidelink communication)、旁路发现(sidelink discovery)和车-车旁路通信(Vehicle-To-Vehicle sidelink communication)。
首先,在进行D2D通信之前,第一终端向网络设备发送请求信息,以使网络设备为其分配无线资源来发送旁路信号,如旁路发现、旁路通信、车-车旁路通信等过程中的相关信号等。在3GPP的release 12中定义,第一终端通过SidelinkUEInformation消息向网络设备请求无线资源,并设置SidelinkUEInformation中的字段discTxResourceReq的值来指示需要发送的消息的数量。
然后,网络设备接收到第一终端发送的请求,为第一终端配置无线资源。3GPP的release 12中定义,网络设备为第一终端配置无线资源时,指示一个资源池并且为第一终端指示出该资源池中的至少一个参考PRB-pair。
网络设备为第一终端指示资源池时,需要具体指示出资源块的数量(prb-Num)、起始资源块索引(prb-Start)、结束资源块索引(prb-End)以及资源池包含的时域资源。这里,网络设备为该第一终端配置的资源池中的物理资源块并不一定是该第一终端所专用的,该资源池中的物理资源块和网络设备配置给其他第一终端的资源池中的物理资源块有可能完全不同、或者部分相同、或者全部相同。
网络设备为第一终端指示参考PRB-pair时,需要具体指示出该参考PRB-pair的时域索引和频域索引。
最后,第一终端根据参考PRB-pair确定使用资源池中的哪些PRB-pair来发送信号,并使用确定出的PRB-pair发送信号。
参考3GPP中TS36.213标准可知,第一终端能够通过固定的一种算法确定PRB-pair。
显然地,在现有技术中,默认第一终端在发送信号时,都使用固定的一种方式确定出 需要使用的PRB-pair,即第一终端使用相同的传输方式发送信号。
但是,随着D2D通信的发展,第一终端可能会使用除上述的这一种传输方式以外的多种传输方式来发送信号。在这种情况下,第一终端发送信号时,不同的传输方式对应使用不同的PRB-pair。
举例来说,网络设备为第一终端配置的资源池中包括PRB-pair1、PRB-pair 2、PRB-pair3,并指示出参考PRB-pair为PRB-pair 1。如下表所示,第一终端通过传输方式1发送信号时,对应使用PRB-pair 1和PRB-pair 3,第一终端通过传输方式2发送信号时,对应使用PRB-pair 1和PRB-pair 2。
传输方式 使用资源块
传输方式1 PRB-pair 1、PRB-pair 3
传输方式2 PRB-pair 1、PRB-pair 2
表1
假设第一终端通过传输方式1,使用了PRB-pair1和PRB-pair3来发送信号。同时,网络设备侧不知道第一终端会使用哪一种传输方式,可能认为第一终端通过传输方式2,使用了PRB-pair1和PRB-pair2来发送该消息。在这种情况下,网络设备可能会将PRB-pair3配置给其他第一终端使用,并避免其他第一终端使用PRB-pair2,导致第一终端间在PRB-pair3上发生碰撞,而PRB-pair2被浪费。在第一终端可以通过不同的传输方式来发送信号时,为了避免出现上述问题,本申请提出了一种信号传输方法,第一终端在向网络设备请求无线资源时,上报将要使用哪些传输方式来传输信号。同时,网络设备在为第一终端配置无线资源时,可指示传输方式,以使得第一终端通过指示的传输方式确定发送信号时所使用的资源。
在本申请中,一个资源可以是现有技术中定义的PRB-pair,也可以是在时域上占用任意时长、频域上占用任意带宽的物理资源块,该任意时长、任意带宽可由网络设备配置或者由协议规定,本申请不做限制。
首先介绍第一终端在发送D2D信号时可能使用的几种传输方式。在本申请中,信号的传输方式为第一终端传输所述信号时使用资源的方式。
第一方面,根据最大频域宽度划分传输方式。这种情况下,可以划分为多种传输方式,即分别使用不同的频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式。
这里,最大频域宽度可以根据接收第一终端发送的信号的第二终端接收旁路信号时所支持的最大频域宽度确定。
其中,最大频域宽度可通过赫兹(Hz)为单位计量。
具体的,各个终端支持的带宽能力不同,部分终端只能在受限的带宽内发送和接收信号。例如,在FeD2D(further enhancements to LTE Device to Device)课题中,有的终端支持在全部旁路带宽内发送和接收信号,有的终端仅支持在6PRB的频域宽度内发送和接收信号,有的终端仅支持在1PRB的频域宽度内发送和接收信号。接收信号的第二终端的带宽能力可能是上述的任意一种,下面以此为例详细说明以下几种传输方式。
第一种,使用全带宽(full bandwidth)内的资源传输信号的方式。这种传输方式适用于接收信号的第二终端的带宽能力不受限的场景。在配置的资源池的频域宽度超过旁路带宽的情况下,第一终端可使用资源池内的一个旁路带宽内的任意资源传输信号,在配置的资源池的频域宽度不超过旁路带宽的情况下,第一终端可使用资源池内的任意资源传输信号举例来说,使用第一种传输方式时,第一终端第一次可使用频域索引为0、1的PRB-pai r传输信号,第二次可使用频域索引为10、11的PRB-pai r传输信号,上述两次传输的信号可以是同一信号,也可以是不同的信号。
第二种,使用6PRB的频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式。这种传输方式适用于接收信号的第二终端受限带宽为6个PRB的频域宽度的场景,当然也适用于第二终端的带宽能力不受限的场景。在配置的资源池的频域宽度超过6PRB频域宽度的情况下,第一终端可使用资源池内的6PRB频域宽度内的任意资源传输信号,在配置的资源池的频域宽度不超过6PRB频域宽度的情况下,第一终端可使用资源池内的任意资源传输信号。举例来说,使用第二种传输方式时,第一终端第一次可使用频域索引为0、1的PRB-pair传输信号,第二次可使用频域索引为2、3的PRB-pair传输信号,第三次第一终端可使用频域索引为4、5的PRB-pair传输信号,第四次可使用频域索引为0、1的PRB-pair传输信号,四次发送的信号可以是同一信号,也可以是不同的信号。显然地,在四次传输信号时,频域上间隔最大的两个PRB-pair(PRB-pair0和PRB-pair5)在频域上的跨度为6×每个PRB-pair在频域上占用的带宽,第一终端使用的所有资源在6PRB的频域宽度之内。
可选的,第二种传输方式为第一终端使用6个PRB的频域宽度内的资源多次传输同一信号的方式。这里,同一信号可以是完全相同的物理信号,也可以是用于传输同一个消息的不同的物理信号。
可选的,第二种传输方式为第一终端使用6PRB的频域宽度内的资源在一个周期内多次传输同一信号的方式。即,第二终端在每个周期内使用的不是相同的6个PRB的频域宽度内的资源多次传输同一信号,例如,在第一个周期中可使用0-5PRB频域宽度内的资源多次传输同一信号,在第二周期可使用6-11PRB频域宽度内的资源多次传输同一信号。
第三种,使用1PRB的频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式。这种传输方式适用于接收信号的第二终端受限带宽为1个PRB的频域宽度的场景,当然也适用于第二终端的带宽能力不受限或者受限带宽为6个PRB的频域宽度的场景。在配置的资源池的频域宽度超过1PRB频域宽度的情况下,第一终端可使用资源池内的1PRB频域宽度内的任意资源传输信号,在配置的资源池的频域宽度不超过1PRB频域宽度的情况下,第一终端可使用资源池内的任意资源传输信号。举例来说,使用第三种传输方式时,第一终端可使用时域索引分别为0和1、频域索引为0的两个PRB-pair传输信号,或者仅通过时域索引为0、频域索引为0的1个PRB-pair传输信号。
可选的,第三种传输方式为第一终端使用1个PRB的频域宽度内的资源多次传输同一信号的方式。
可选的,第三种传输方式为第一终端使用1PRB的频域宽度内的资源在一个周期内多次传输同一信号的方式。
上述几种传输方式仅是示例性说明,具体实现中,可以有更多的传输方式,例如使用 2个PRB频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式、使用4个PRB频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式、使用Xkhz内的资源传输信号的方式等,其中,Xkhz小于等于旁路带宽。在本申请中,一个资源可以是在时域上占用任意时长、频域上占用任意带宽的物理资源块,本申请不做限制。
第二方面,根据接收信号的第二终端划分传输方式。
在可选实施例中,可分为以下三种传输方式:
第一种,向带宽能力不受限的第二终端传输信号的方式。在这种传输方式下,第一终端发送的信号能够被带宽能力不受限的第二终端接收。
第二种,向受限带宽为6个PRB的频域宽度的第二终端传输信号的方式。在这种传输方式下,第一终端发送的信号能被受限带宽为6个PRB的第二终端接收。
第三种,向受限带宽为1个PRB的频域宽度的第二终端传输信号的传输方式。在这种传输方式下,第一终端发送的信号能被受限带宽为1个PRB的频域宽度的第二终端接收。
上述几种传输方式仅是示例性说明,具体实现中,还可以有更多的传输方式,例如向受限带宽为2个PRB的频域宽度的第二终端传输信号的方式、向受限带宽为4个PRB的频域宽度的第二终端传输信号的方式等,本申请不做限制。
在另一可选实施例中,可分为以下两种传输方式:
第一种,向NB-IoT终端传输信号的方式。其中,NB-IoT终端仅支持在1个PRB内的频域宽度上发送和接收信号。
第二种,向eMTC终端传输信号的方式。其中,eMTC终端仅支持在6个PRB内的频域宽度上发送和接收信号。
第三方面,传输方式可分为以下两种。
第一种,在不同频域资源上多次传输信号的方式;所述频域资源的频域宽度为接收所述信号的第二终端接收旁路信号时的最大频域宽度。
可选的,第一种传输方式为在同一个周期内在不同频域资源上多次传输同一信号的方式。
参见图3左图,一个旁路带宽或资源池在频域上可划分为多个相同频域宽度的窄带,通过窄带索引标识每个窄带。其中,每个窄带的频域宽度根据接收信号的第二终端所支持的最大频域宽度确定。例如,当接收信号的第二终端的受限带宽为6个PRB时,1个总带宽为3.24Mhz的旁路,可划分为3个频域宽度为6PRB的窄带,该3个窄带可通过索引0-2标识。
在不同频域资源上多次传输信号的方式相当于在不同的窄带上多次传输同一信号。具体的,可以在同一个资源池的多个窄带上多次传输同一信号,也可以是在不同的资源池中的窄带上多次传输同一信号。
在同一个资源池的多个窄带上多次传输同一信号时,举例来说,配置给终端的一个资源池中的窄带划分如图3左图所示,第一终端第一次可在索引为0的窄带中的两个PRB-pair上发送信号,第二次可在索引为1的窄带中的两个PRB-pair上发送信号,第三次可在索引 为2的窄带中的两个PRB-pair上发送信号,以此类推。其中,第一终端发送信号的次数可以由网络设备配置。使用第一种传输方式,第二终端只需要在其中一个窄带上接收信号,提高效率。
在不同的资源池中的窄带上多次传输同一信号时,举例来说,配置给第一终端的资源池有两个:资源池1和资源池2,资源池1和资源池2中的窄带划分都可如图3左图所示。第一终端第一次可在资源池1中的索引为0的窄带中的两个PRB-pair上发送信号,第二次可在资源池2中的索引为1的窄带中的两个PRB-pair上发送信号。可选的,配置给终端的资源池的频域宽度可以和窄带的频域宽度相同。
第二种,使用第一资源传输信号的方式;所述第一资源根据所述第一终端接收到的旁路信号所占用的第二资源确定。
具体的,第一终端可根据接收到的一个或多个旁路信号所占用的第二资源来确定第一资源,该接收到的一个或多个旁路信号可能是第二终端或其他终端发送的。确定第一资源的方式可能有多种,本申请示例性地提出以下可能的实施方式。
在可能的实施方式中,第一终端直接将任意一次接收到的旁路信号所占用的第二资源的频域索引作为第一资源的频域索引。
在可能的实施方式中,第一终端确定任意一次接收到的旁路信号所占用的第二资源的频域索引,在该频域索引上加n得到第一资源的频域索引,n为正整数。例如,最近一次接收到的旁路信号所占用的第二资源为频域索引分别是为0和1的PRB-pair,在0和1上分别加2,得到第一资源的频域索引2和3,相当于第一资源为频域索引为2和3的两个PRB-pair。在确定第二资源的频域索引后,终端可任意确定第二资源的时域索引,以确定第二资源。
在可能的实施方式中,可将旁路带宽分为几个窄带,第一终端可确定接收到的任意一次的旁路信号所占用的第二资源所在的窄带,并在该窄带上任选一个或多个资源作为第一资源。
不限于上述根据接收到的旁路信号所占用的第二资源确定第一资源的方式,具体实现中,还可通过其他方式根据第二资源确定第一资源,本申请不做限定。
上述基于三个方面分别划分了信号的传输方式。在本申请中,第一终端在传输信号时,有可能使用上述的传输方式中的任意一种或者多种。在这种情况下,第一终端在向网络设备发送消息来请求传输信号的资源时,同时通过该消息通知网络设备第一终端所支持的信号传输方式,或者,第一终端希望使用的信号传输方式。这里可将第一终端向网络设备发送的消息称为第一消息。
第一消息可实现为RRC层信令,媒体接入控制控制元素(Medium Access Controlcontrol element,MAC CE)、旁路控制信息(Sidelink Control Information,SCI)。具体实现中,可通过在现有的消息中增加字段,或者利用预留字段的方式实现,也可通过增加新的消息类型来实现第一消息。
第一消息的作用是向网络设备请求用于第一终端发送信号的资源,并且,第一消息指 示信号的传输方式。可选的,第一消息还指示使用所述信号的传输方式传输的信号的数据量。这里,第一消息可通过以下两种可选的方式指示出上述两个信息,下面详细说明。
第一种指示方式,第一消息包括第一指示信息和第二指示信息,其中,第一指示信息用于指示所述信号的传输方式;第二指示信息用于指示使用所述传输方式传输的信号的数据量。这里,信号的数据量可以是信号的个数。
参见图4a,在一个第一消息中,可包括多个第一指示信息,以及和所述多个第一指示信息对应的多个第二指示信息。可定义一个字段或信息单元(information element,IE)包含一个第一指示信息和对应的第二指示信息。
在可选实施例中,每个IE或字段可实现为SL-DiscTxResourceReq字段,如下:
Figure PCTCN2017096616-appb-000001
其中,SL-DiscTxResourceReq字段中包括两个字段,transmissionType和discTxResourceReq。
transmissionType为第一指示信息,指示出信号的传输方式。这里指示出的传输方式可以是上述根据最大频域宽度划分的传输方式、或者根据增强方法划分的传输方式中的任意一种。当transmissionType指示出的传输方式是上述根据最大频域宽度划分的传输方式中的任意一种时,transmissionType可直接指示出最大频域宽度,例如直接指示6PRB、1PRB等。
可理解的,上面仅示例性地列出了transmissionType指示使用全旁路带宽内的资源传输信号的方式、使用6PRB内的资源传输信号的方式、使用1PRB内的资源传输信号的方式的情况,具体实现中,transmissionType字段还可指示出上述的其他传输方式,本申请不做限制。
discTxResourceReq为第二指示信息,指示出使用transmissionType所指示的传输方式传输的信号的数据量。这里,数据量可以用信号的个数衡量。
在上面的可选实施例中,每个SL-DiscTxResourceReqIE或字段通过transmissionType字段直接指示出了传输方式。在其他的可选实施例中,第一终端在发送的第一消息中指示旁路发现模式,通过旁路发现模式间接指示出传输方式,旁路发现模式和传输方式之间有一一对应的关系。
在D2D通信的发现(discovery)过程中,有两种发现模式:模式(model)A和模式B。在model A下,第一终端向第二终端发送用户设备到网络中继发现公告(UE-to-Network Relay Discovery Announcement)消息,在model B下,第一终端向第二终端发送用户设备到网络中继发现响应(UE-to-Network Relay Discovery Response)消息。可选的,第一终端发送UE-to-Network Relay Discovery Announcement消息时,使用的是上述第三方面中的在不同频域资源上多次传输信号的方式,第一终端发送UE-to-Network Relay  Discovery Response时,使用的是使用第一资源传输信号的方式。因此,如下表所示,model A对应于在不同频域资源上多次传输信号的方式,model B对应于使用第一资源传输信号的方式。
旁路发现模式 传输方式
Model A 在不同频域资源上多次传输信号的方式
Model B 使用第一资源传输信号的方式
表2
基于表2所示的对应关系,每个IE或字段还可通过旁路发现模式间接指示出传输方式。每个IE可实现成SL-DiscTxResourceReq字段,如下:
Figure PCTCN2017096616-appb-000002
其中,SL-DiscTxResourceReq字段包括两个字段,ModeIndication和discTxResourceReq。
ModeIndication为第一指示信息,直接指示传输信号使用的旁路发现模式,间接指示该旁路发现模式对应的传输方式。
discTxResourceReq为第二指示信息,指示出了ModeIndication字段所指示的传输方式对应的信号的数据量。
第二种指示方式,第一消息包括第一指示信息,第一指示信息用于指示信号的数据量;所述第一指示信息与所述信号的传输方式之间的映射关系可由协议预先定义或由高层信令配置。其中,网络设备和第一终端都预先获知所述第一指示信息与所述信号的传输方式之间的映射关系。
参见图4b,第一消息可包括多个第一指示信息,每个第一指示信息对应于一种传输方式。
在可选实施例中,第一消息可包括SL-DiscTxResourceReq字段,如下:
Figure PCTCN2017096616-appb-000003
其中,SL-DiscTxResourceReq字段包括的三个字段discTxResourceReqFullBW、discTxResourceReq6PRB和discTxResourceReq1PRB都为第一指示信息。discTxResourceReqFullBW对应于使用全旁路带宽内的资源传输信号的方式,指示出使用全旁路带宽内的资源传输信号的方式的信号的数据量。discTxResourceReq6PRB对应于使用6PRB内的资源传输信号的方式,指示出使用6PRB内的资源传输信号的方式的信号的数据量。discTxResourceReq1PRB对应于使用1PRB内的资源传输信号的方式,指示出使用1PRB 内的资源传输信号的方式的信号的数据量。应理解的,上述仅示例性地列出了三种第一指示信息,具体实现中,还可能包括更多的第一指示信息,例如,分别对应于在使用2PRB内、或4PRB内的资源传输信号的方式的第一指示信息等。
特别的,当第一消息中指示出的信号的传输方式为在第一资源上发送信号的方式时,第一消息在上述的任意一种指示方式的基础上,还包括用于指示第一资源或第二资源的指示信息。其中,第二资源是第一终端接收到的旁路信号所占用的资源。当第一消息中包括用于指示第一资源的指示信息时,网络设备可直接获知第一资源,当第一消息中包括用于指示第二资源的指示信息时,网络设备可根据第二资源确定第一资源。网络设备在获知第一资源的情况下,可为第一终端配置第一资源来传输信号。
不限于上述第一消息的两种指示方式,具体实现中,还可通过其他方式实现第一消息的指示功能,本申请不做限制。
通过上述第一消息的两种指示方式,第一终端可通知网络设备第一终端支持的信号的传输方式,或者第一终端希望使用的信号的传输方式,以及使用每种传输方式传输的信号的数据量,可以使得网络设备根据不同的传输方式和数据量为第一终端分配资源。
在本申请中,网络设备在接收到第一终端发送的第一消息后,向第一终端发送消息指示配置给第一终端的资源。这里可将网络设备向第一终端发送的消息称为第二消息。
第二消息可实现为RRC层信令,媒体接入控制控制元素(Medium Access Controlcontrol element,MAC CE)、旁路控制信息(Sidelink Control Information,SCI)。具体实现中,可通过在现有的消息中增加字段,或者利用预留字段的方式实现,也可通过增加新的消息类型来实现第二消息。
第二消息的作用是向第一终端指示用于传输信号的资源,这里,不同的场景下,网络设备通过第二消息向第一终端指示资源的方式不同。下面详细说明第二消息的多种指示方式。
第一种指示方式,网络设备通过第二消息向第一终端发送第三指示信息和第四指示信息。
第三指示信息用于指示资源池,第四指示信息用于指示第三资源。资源池和第三资源用于第一终端确定传输信号的目标资源。其中,第三指示信息可通过频域索引和时域索引指示资源池,第四指示信息也可通过频域索引和时域索引指示第三资源。
这里,第三指示信息和第四指示信息可包括在同一个第二消息中,也可分别包括在多个第二消息中。例如,网络设备第一次可向第一终端发送仅包括第三指示信息的第二消息,第二次向第一终端发送仅包括第四指示信息的第二消息,通过两次发送的第二消息向第一终端发送第三指示信息和第四指示信息。
在一个具体的实施例中,第三指示信息可实现为下面的SL-TF-ResourceConfig字段或IE:
Figure PCTCN2017096616-appb-000004
SL-TF-ResourceConfig字段或IE中包括网络设备为第一终端配置的资源池的频域位置信息和时域位置信息。其中,资源池的频域位置信息包括:PRB的数量(prb-Num)、PRB起始索引(prb-Start)、PRB结束索引(prb-End)。网络设备为第一终端配置的资源池在频域上包含的PRB为:索引大于或等于prb-start且小于prb-start+prb-num的PRB,以及索引大于prb-end–prb-num且小于或等于prb-end的PRB。其中,资源池的时域位置由SL-OffsetIndicator字段和SubframeBitmapSL字段共同指示。
在一个具体的实施例中,第四指示信息可实现为下面的SL-TF-IndexPair字段或IE:
Figure PCTCN2017096616-appb-000005
SL-TF-IndexPair字段或IE中包括第三资源的时域索引(discSF-Index)和频域索引(discPRB-Index)。
第一终端在接收到上述的第二消息后,根据第二消息中指示的资源池、第三资源以及第一消息中指示的传输方式,确定使用第一消息中的传输方式发送信号时所使用的目标资源。其中,目标资源属于资源池。可选的,第一终端根据第三资源和传输方式从资源池中确定多次传输信号所使用的目标资源。
以一个具体的例子说明,假设第一消息中顺序指示了两种传输方式:传输方式1(在不同频域资源上多次传输信号的方式),传输方式2(使用第一资源传输信号的方式)。第一消息中还分别指示出了使用传输方式1和使用传输方式2传输的信号的数据量,如下表3所示:
Figure PCTCN2017096616-appb-000006
表3

第三种,第一消息中指示的传输方式包括上述第二方面的任意一种或多种传输方式,且网络设备配置给终端的资源池的频域宽度为上述第二方面中的第二终端支持的最大频域宽度的场景。
第五种指示方式,网络设备通过第二消息向第一终端发送第三指示信息、第四指示信息、第六指示信息。第五种指示方式和第一种指示方式的不同之处在于,多了第六指示信息。
第三指示信息用于指示资源池,第四指示信息用于指示第三资源。第六指示信息用于指示传输信号时可使用的资源的起始频域位置或结束频域位置,或者用于指示传输信号时可使用的窄带。其中,第三指示信息可通过频域索引和时域索引指示资源池,第四指示信息也可通过频域索引和时域索引指示第三资源。在第六指示信息用于指示窄带的情况下,第六指示信息可通过窄带索引指示传输信号时可使用的窄带。起始频域位置或结束频域位 置或窄带、资源池和第三资源用于第一终端确定传输信号的目标资源。
这里,传输信号时可使用的资源的频域范围从起始频域位置开始,或到结束频域位置结束,可使用的资源的频域宽度为传输方式中指示的最大频域宽度(当传输方式为上述第一方面中的任意一种或第二方面中的任意一种时)。或者,传输信号时可使用的资源的频域范围为可使用的窄带所在的频域范围。旁路带宽或资源池在频域上可划分为多个相同频域宽度的窄带,每个窄带可通过窄带索引标识。其中,每个窄带的频域宽度为传输方式中指示的最大频域宽度。
例如,参见图3,图3示出了两种可能的窄带划分形式。图3中所示的旁路带宽的频域宽度为18个PRB的频域宽度,即旁路带宽为3.24Mhz,在将旁路带宽划分为窄带时,每个窄带的频域宽度为传输方式中的最大频域宽度(当传输方式为第一方面的任意一种时),或者传输方式中第二终端支持的最大频域宽度(当传输方式为第二方面的任意一种时)。
参见图3中左图,当传输方式为第一方面的使用6PRB频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式时,窄带的频域宽度为6PRB的频域宽度,窄带索引共有3个:0,1,2。窄带0的频域位置为索引0-5的PRB所在的频域位置,窄带1的频域位置为索引6-11的PRB所在的的频域位置,窄带3的频域位置为索引12-17的PRB所在的的频域位置。

在上述第六指示信息指示窄带索引的情况下,终端可根据传输方式和窄带索引确定可使用的窄带。例如,当传输方式为使用6PRB频域宽度内的资源传输信号的方式,窄带索引为0时,终端可确定可使用的窄带的频域宽度为索引0-5的PRB的频域宽度。
这里,第三指示信息、第四指示信息、第六指示信息可包括在同一个第二消息中,也可分别包括在多个第二消息中。
在一个具体的实施例中,第三指示信息可实现为SL-TF-ResourceConfig字段或IE,第四指示信息可实现为SL-TF-IndexPair字段或IE,第六指示信息可实现成lowest-PRB-index字段,具体如下:
