Description

User device

The present invention relates to a user device in a wireless communication system.

In LTE (Long Term Evolution) and LTE successor systems (for example, LTE-A (LTE Advanced), NR (New Radio) (also referred to as 5G)), user devices communicate directly with each other without going through a base station device. D2D (Device to Device) technology to be performed is being studied (for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

D2D reduces the traffic between the user device and the base station device, and enables communication between the user devices even when the base station device becomes incommunicable due to a disaster or the like. In 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project), D2D is referred to as "sidelink", but in the present specification, D2D, which is a more general term, is used. However, in the description of the embodiment described later, a side link is also used if necessary.

D2D communication includes D2D discovery (also referred to as D2D discovery) for discovering other user devices that can communicate, and D2D communication (D2D direct communication, D2D communication, terminal) for direct communication between user devices. It is also roughly divided into (also called direct communication, etc.). Hereinafter, when D2D communication, D2D discovery, etc. are not particularly distinguished, they are simply referred to as D2D. Further, a signal transmitted / received in D2D is called a D2D signal. Various use cases of services related to V2X (Vehicle to Everything) in NR are being studied (for example, Non-Patent Document 2).

It is being considered to support HARQ (Hybrid automatic repeat request) in the direct communication between terminals in NR-V2X. On the other hand, the position or period in the time domain or frequency domain of the resource in which the PSFCH (Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel) for transmitting and receiving the HARQ response corresponding to the PSSCH (Physical Sidelink Shared Channel) is arranged is not defined.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to appropriately transmit and receive a response related to retransmission control in direct communication between terminals.

According to the disclosed technology, a transmitter that transmits data to another user device via a physically shared channel arranged in a resource pool and a channel used for transmitting and receiving a response related to retransmission control corresponding to the data. The control unit has a control unit that specifies a resource to be arranged, and a reception unit that receives a response related to retransmission control corresponding to the data from the other user device in the specified resource. A user apparatus is provided that specifies the cycle of the resource in which the channel for receiving the response related to the retransmission control is arranged based on the parameter for setting the resource pool.

According to the disclosed technology, in direct communication between terminals, it is possible to appropriately send and receive a response related to retransmission control.

FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining V2X. In 3GPP, it is considered to realize V2X (Vehicle to Everything) or eV2X (enhanced V2X) by expanding the D2D function, and specification is being promoted. As shown in FIG. 1, V2X is a part of ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems), V2V (Vehicle to Vehicle) which means a communication mode between vehicles, and a roadside installed between a vehicle and a roadside. V2I (Vehicle to Infrastructure), which means the communication mode between the machine (RSU: Road-Side Unit), V2N (Vehicle to Network), which means the communication mode between the vehicle and the ITS server, and , Is a general term for V2P (Vehicle to Pedestrian), which means a form of communication between a vehicle and a mobile terminal owned by a pedestrian.

Also, in 3GPP, V2X using LTE or NR cellular communication and terminal-to-terminal communication is being studied. V2X using cellular communication is also referred to as cellular V2X. For V2X of NR, studies are underway to realize large capacity, low delay, high reliability, and QoS (Quality of Service) control.

Regarding LTE or NR V2X, it is expected that studies not limited to 3GPP specifications will be promoted in the future. For example, ensuring interoperability, reducing costs by implementing higher layers, using or switching between multiple RATs (Radio Access Technology), compliance with regulations in each country, data acquisition, distribution, database management, and LTE or NR V2X platform. It is expected that the usage method will be examined.

In the embodiment of the present invention, it is mainly assumed that the communication device is mounted on the vehicle, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this mode. For example, the communication device may be a terminal held by a person, the communication device may be a device mounted on a drone or an aircraft, and the communication device may be a base station, an RSU, a relay station (relay node), or the like. It may be a user device or the like having a scheduling ability.

In LTE SL, Mode 3 and Mode 4 are defined regarding the allocation of SL resources to the user device 20. In Mode3, transmission resources are dynamically allocated by DCI (Downlink Control Information) transmitted from the base station device 10 to the user device 20. In addition, SPS (SemiPersistent Scheduling) is also possible in Mode3. In Mode 4, the user device 20 autonomously selects a transmission resource from the resource pool.

In the sidelink communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 2, in step 1, the base station apparatus 10 transmits the sidelink scheduling to the user apparatus 20A. Subsequently, the user device 20A transmits the PSCCH (Physical Sidelink Control Channel) and the PSCH (Physical Sidelink Shared Channel) to the user device 20B based on the received scheduling (step 2). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 2 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 3 in LTE. In sidelink transmission mode 3 in LTE, Uu-based sidelink scheduling is performed. Uu is a wireless interface between UTRAN (Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network) and UE (User Equipment). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 2 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 1 in NR.

FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining an example (3) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 3, in step 1, the user apparatus 20A transmits the PSCCH and the PSCH to the user apparatus 20B using the autonomously selected resource. Similarly, the user apparatus 20B transmits the PSCCH and the PSCH to the user apparatus 20A using the autonomously selected resource (step 1). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 3 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 2a in NR. In the side link transmission mode 2 in NR, the UE itself executes resource selection.

FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining an example (4) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 4, in step 0, the base station apparatus 10 transmits the side link resource pattern to the user apparatus 20A via the RRC (Radio Resource Control) setting. Alternatively, the resource pattern of the side link is set (in advance) in the user device 20A. Subsequently, the user apparatus 20A transmits the PSCH to the user apparatus 20B based on the received / (pre-) set resource pattern (step 1). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 4 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 2c in NR.

Subsequently, the user apparatus 20A transmits the PSCH to the user apparatus 20B based on the received scheduling (step 2). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 5 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 2d in NR.

FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining an example (1) of the communication type of V2X. The sidelink communication type shown in FIG. 6 is unicast. The user device 20A transmits PSCCH and PSCH to the user device 20. In the example shown in FIG. 6, the user device 20A unicasts the user device 20B and also unicasts the user device 20C.

Subsequently, the user apparatus 20B transmits a PSFCH (Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel) including a HARQ response corresponding to the received PSSCH to the user apparatus 20A.

In NR-V2X, HARQ is supported in unicast or group cast PSCCH and PSCH. For unicast and groupcast, HARQ feedback and HARQ combining are supported at the physical layer. Further, in NR-V2X, SFCI (Sidelink Feedback Control Information) including a HARQ response is defined. For SFCI, at least one SFCI format including a HARQ response corresponding to PSSCH is applied.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example (1) of channel arrangement in the embodiment of the present invention. As mentioned above, in the sidelink of NR, it is supported that the HARQ response is transmitted by PSFCH. As the format of PSFCH, it is considered that the same format as PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) format 0 is used. PUCCH format 0 has a PRB (Physical Resource Block) size of 1, and ACK and NACK are sequence-based formats identified by sequence differences. PSFCH resources are located at the last symbol of the slot or at the last multiple symbols. Further, the period N is specified or set (in advance) in the PSFCH resource. That is, the PSFCH resource is set only in the slot for each cycle N. The period N may be specified or set (in advance) on a slot-by-slot basis.

In FIG. 10, the vertical axis corresponds to the frequency domain and the horizontal axis corresponds to the time domain. The PSCCH may be arranged in one symbol at the beginning of the slot, or may be arranged in a plurality of symbols from the beginning. The PSFCH may be arranged in one symbol at the end of the slot, or may be arranged in a plurality of symbols at the end of the slot. As shown in FIG. 10, three subchannels are set in the resource pool, the PSFCH is arranged in the slot next to the slot in which the PSSCH is arranged, and the period N thereof is one slot. The arrow from PSSCH to PSFCH shows an example of PSFCH associated with PSSCH.

The PSFCH cycle may be 2 slots or more. Further, for example, the HARQ response may be invalidated in the resource pool in which the PSFCH resource is not set. Further, the HARQ response corresponding to the transmission in a certain resource pool may be transmitted by the PSFCH in the resource pool. The PSFCH may be frequency-division-multiplexed, time-division-multiplexed, or code-division-multiplexed. The frequency domain of the PSSCH may be composed of one subchannel or a plurality of subchannels.

As described above, the cycle N of PSFCH may be one slot. However, if the period N of the PSFCH exceeds one slot, it is necessary to determine the period N so that the HARQ response corresponding to the PSSCH is properly transmitted.

The period N of the PSFCH may be determined based on the resource pool settings. At this time, the period N of the PSFCH may be determined based on at least one of the resource pool settings shown in a) -g) below.
a) Number of PRBs constituting the subchannel (hereinafter, defined as "N_PRB_in_SCH")
b) Number of PRBs constituting the resource pool (hereinafter, defined as "N_PRB_in_RP")
c) Number of subchannels that make up the resource pool (hereinafter, defined as "N_SCH_in_RP")
d) Number of PRBs constituting the PSFCH resource (hereinafter, defined as "N_PRB_of_PSFCH")
e) Number of PSFCHs corresponding to 1PSSCH (hereinafter, defined as "N_PSFCH_for_PSSCH")
f) Number of symbols contained in one slot that can be used for PSFCH g) Number of subchannels in which PSFCH is set However, broadcast subchannels may be excluded from the above subchannels. In addition, broadcasts or transmissions to which PSFCH is not associated may be excluded from the above PSSCH. Further, in the above resource pool settings a) -g), "number" may be replaced with "maximum number among numbers".

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example (2) of channel arrangement in the embodiment of the present invention. The period N of PSFCH may be determined by any of the following A1) -A6).
A1) Number of PRBs in subchannels / Number of subchannels in resource pool For example, N = N_PRB_in_SCH / N_SCH_in_RP
Or, N = floor (N_PRB_in_SCH / N_SCH_in_RP)
When the PSFCH corresponding to the PSSCH included in the resource pool is specified or (preliminarily) set for a specific subchannel by N calculated by the above equation, and when each PSFCH resource uses 1 PRB, the PSFCH Since the number of resources in is equal to the number of PRBs in which PSFCHs are placed (that is, N_PRB_in_SCH) and the number of PSSCHs per PSFCH cycle is N * N_SCH_in_RP, the PSFCHs corresponding to all PSSCHs included in the resource pool are set. can do.

A2) Number of PRBs of subchannels / (Number of subchannels of resource pool * Number of PRBs of PSFCH)
For example, N = N_PRB_in_SCH / (N_SCH_in_RP * N_PRB_of_PSFCH)
Or, N = floor (N_PRB_in_SCH / N_SCH_in_RP * N_PRB_of_PSFCH)
When the PSFCH corresponding to the PSSCH included in the resource pool is defined or (previously) set for a specific subchannel by N calculated by the above equation, and each PSFCH resource uses one PRB or a plurality of PRBs. In this case, the number of PSFCH resources is equal to N_PRB_in_SCH / N_PRB_of_PSFCH, and the number of PSSCHs per PSFCH cycle is N * N_SCH_in_RP. Therefore, PSFCHs corresponding to all PSSCHs included in the resource pool can be set.

A3) Number of PRBs of subchannels / (Number of subchannels of resource pool * 1 Number of PSFCHs corresponding to PSSCH)
For example, N = N_PRB_in_SCH / (N_SCH_in_RP * N_PSFCH_for_PSSCH)
Or, N = floor (N_PRB_in_SCH / N_SCH_in_RP * N_PSFCH_for_PSSCH)
When the PSFCH corresponding to the PSSCH included in the resource pool is defined or (preliminarily) set for a specific subchannel by N calculated by the above equation, and each PSSCH resource is defined as one or more PSFCH resources. When associated, PSFCH corresponding to all PSSCHs contained in the resource pool can be configured.

A4) Number of PRBs in the resource pool / Number of subchannels in the resource pool For example, N = N_PRB_in_RP / N_SCH_in_RP

When the PSFCH corresponding to the PSSCH included in the resource pool is specified (in advance) in the same subchannel as the PSSCH by N calculated by the above equation, and when each PSFCH resource uses 1 PRB. , PSFCH corresponding to all PSSCHs included in the resource pool can be set.

A5) Number of PRBs in the subchannel / (Number of PRBs in the resource pool * Number of PRBs in the PSFCH)
For example, N = N_PRB_in_RP / (N_SCH_in_RP * N_PRB_of_PSFCH)
Or, N = floor (N_PRB_in_RP / N_SCH_in_RP * N_PRB_of_PSFCH)
When the PSFCH corresponding to the PSSCH included in the resource pool is specified (in advance) in the same subchannel as the PSSCH by N calculated by the above equation, and each PSFCH resource is one PRB or a plurality of PRBs. When using, the PSFCH corresponding to all PSSCHs included in the resource pool can be set.

A6) Number of PRBs in the resource pool / (Number of subchannels in the resource pool * 1 Number of PSFCHs corresponding to PSSCH)
For example, N = N_PRB_in_RP / (N_SCH_in_RP * N_PSFCH_for_PSSCH)
Or, N = floor (N_PRB_in_RP / N_SCH_in_RP * N_PSFCH_for_PSSCH)
When the PSFCH corresponding to the PSSCH included in the resource pool is specified (in advance) in the same subchannel as the PSSCH by N calculated by the above equation, and each PSSCH resource is one or more PSFCHs. When associated with a resource, a PSFCH corresponding to all PSSCHs contained in the resource pool can be configured.

The example of the channel arrangement shown in FIG. 11 shows the case of A1) above. Since N = floor (N_PRB_in_SCH / N_SCH_in_RP) = floor (8/3) = 2, 2 slots are set for the cycle N of PSFCH. In FIG. 11, since the number of PSSCHs that can be arranged in the two slots is 6 and the number of PSFCHs that can be arranged in one subchannel is eight, the PSFCHs corresponding to all the PSSCHs included in the resource pool can be set. The arrow from PSSCH to PSFCH shows an example of PSFCH associated with PSSCH.

Further, the period N of the PSFCH may be specified or (in advance) set based on the setting of the resource pool. At this time, it may be defined or set (in advance) based on at least one of the resource pool settings shown in a) -g) above. Similar to the above, the broadcast subchannel may be excluded from the above subchannels. In addition, broadcasts or transmissions to which PSFCH is not associated may be excluded from the above PSSCH. Further, in the above resource pool settings a) -g), "number" may be replaced with "maximum number among numbers".
