Abstract

A terminal according to the present invention comprises: a reception unit that receives information pertaining to a resource reservation in a sensing window; and a control unit that executes a first exclusion operation in which a reservable cyclic resource is excluded from resources not sensed from a set of resource candidates, and a second exclusion operation in which, on the basis of a priority level included in the information pertaining to the resource reservation and Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) from when information pertaining to the resource reservation has been received, a resource is excluded from the set of resource candidates after the first exclusion operation has been executed. The control unit changes the first exclusion operation or the second exclusion operation and determines whether a resource to be excluded by the second exclusion operation has been preempted.

Description

Terminal and communication method

The present invention relates to a terminal and a communication method 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)), terminals communicate directly with each other without going through a base station. (Device to Device) technology is being studied (for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

D2D reduces the traffic between the terminal and the base station, and enables communication between the terminals even if the base station becomes unable to communicate 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 terminals that can communicate, and D2D communication (D2D direct communication, D2D communication, direct communication between terminals) for direct communication between terminals. It is also roughly divided into 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 by 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).

Power saving is being considered as a strengthening of the NR side link. For example, in resource allocation mode 2 in which the terminal autonomously selects a resource, the terminal executes partial sensing that senses a limited resource in the sensing window, and the terminal performs partial sensing. Based on the result, select available resource candidates from the resource selection window.

Here, in the resource allocation mode 2, when the transmitting terminal performs sensing and determines pre-emption, it is possible to determine whether or not a resource that can be reserved from a resource that has not been sensed has been preempted. There wasn't.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object thereof is to improve the reliability of communication at the time of autonomous resource selection in direct communication between terminals.

According to the disclosed technique, a receiver that receives information related to resource reservation in the sensing window, a first exclusion operation that excludes reservable periodic resources from resources that have not been sensed from a set of resource candidates, and the above-mentioned A set of the resource candidates after the first exclusion operation is executed based on the RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) when the information related to the resource reservation is received and the priority included in the information related to the resource reservation. It has a control unit that executes a second exclusion operation that excludes resources from the control unit, and the control unit modifies the first exclusion operation or the second exclusion operation by the second exclusion operation. A terminal is provided that determines whether the excluded resource is preempted.

According to the disclosed technology, in direct communication between terminals, it is possible to improve the reliability of communication when autonomous resource selection is performed.

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 specifications are 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 communication mode 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. In NR V2X, 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 (RadioAccess 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 the embodiment.

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

The slot in the embodiment of the present invention may be read as a symbol, a mini slot, a subframe, a wireless frame, and a TTI (Transmission Time Interval). Further, the cell in the embodiment of the present invention may be read as a cell group, a carrier component, a BWP, a resource pool, a resource, a RAT (RadioAccess Technology), a system (including a wireless LAN), and the like.

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

FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining an example (1) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 2, in step 1, the base station 10 transmits the side link scheduling to the terminal 20A. Subsequently, the terminal 20A transmits PSCCH (Physical Sidelink Control Channel) and PSCH (Physical Sidelink Shared Channel) to the terminal 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 LTE sidelink transmission mode 3, 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 (2) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side-link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 3, in step 1, terminal 20A transmits PSCCH and PSCH to terminal 20B using autonomously selected resources. The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 3 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 4 in LTE. In the side link transmission mode 4 in LTE, the UE itself executes resource selection.

FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining an example (3) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side-link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 4, in step 1, terminal 20A transmits PSCCH and PSCH to terminal 20B using autonomously selected resources. Similarly, terminal 20B uses autonomously selected resources to transmit PSCCH and PSCH to terminal 20A (step 1). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 4 may be referred to as a side link transmission mode 2a in NR. In the side link transmission mode 2 in NR, the terminal 20 itself executes resource selection.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining an example (4) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 5, in step 0, the side link resource pattern is transmitted from the base station 10 to the terminal 20A via the RRC (Radio Resource Control) setting, or is set in advance. Subsequently, the terminal 20A transmits the PSCH to the terminal 20B based on the resource pattern (step 1). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 5 may be referred to as the side link transmission mode 2c in NR.

FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining an example (5) of the transmission mode of V2X. In the side link communication transmission mode shown in FIG. 6, in step 1, the terminal 20A transmits the side link scheduling to the terminal 20B via the PSCCH. Subsequently, the terminal 20B transmits the PSCH to the terminal 20A based on the received scheduling (step 2). The transmission mode of the side link communication shown in FIG. 6 may be referred to as a side link transmission mode 2d in NR.

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

FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining an example (2) of the communication type of V2X. The sidelink communication type shown in FIG. 8 is group cast. Terminal 20A transmits PSCCH and PSCH to the group to which one or more terminals 20 belong. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the group includes the terminal 20B and the terminal 20C, and the terminal 20A performs a group cast to the group.

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

In addition, it is expected that HARQ (Hybrid automatic repeat request) will be supported for side link unicast and group cast in NR-V2X. Further, in NR-V2X, SFCI (Sidelink Feedback Control Information) including HARQ response is defined. Further, it is being considered that SFCI is transmitted via PSFCH (Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel).

In the following explanation, PSFCH is used in the transmission of HARQ-ACK on the side link, but this is an example. For example, PSCCH may be used to transmit HARQ-ACK on the side link, PSCH may be used to transmit HARQ-ACK on the side link, or other channels may be transmitted. It may be used to transmit HARQ-ACK on the side link.

In the following, for convenience, all the information reported by the terminal 20 in HARQ will be referred to as HARQ-ACK. This HARQ-ACK may be referred to as HARQ-ACK information. More specifically, a codebook applied to the HARQ-ACK information reported from the terminal 20 to the base station 10 or the like is called a HARQ-ACK codebook. The HARQ-ACK codebook defines a bit string of HARQ-ACK information. In addition to ACK, NACK is also transmitted by "HARQ-ACK".

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 have a terminal 20A and a terminal 20B. Although there are actually a large number of user devices, FIG. 10 shows terminals 20A and terminals 20B as examples.

Hereinafter, when the

terminals

20A, 20B, etc. are not particularly distinguished, they are simply described as "terminal 20" or "user device". Although FIG. 10 shows a case where both the terminal 20A and the terminal 20B are within the coverage of the cell as an example, the operation in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied even when the terminal 20B is outside the coverage.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the terminal 20 is 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 side link function. There is. The terminal 20 may be a general mobile terminal (smartphone or the like). Further, the terminal 20 may be an RSU. The RSU may be a UE type RSU having a function of a UE, or may be a gNB type RSU having a function of a base station device.

Note that the terminal 20 does not have to be a device in one housing, and for example, even when various sensors are distributed and arranged in the vehicle, the device including the various sensors may be the terminal 20.

Further, the processing content of the transmission data of the side link of the terminal 20 is basically the same as the processing content of UL transmission in LTE or NR. For example, the terminal 20 scrambles and modulates the codeword of the transmission data to generate complex-valued symbols, maps the complex-valued symbols (transmission signal) to one or two layers, and performs precoding. Then, precoded complex-valued symbols are mapped to resource elements to generate a transmission signal (example: complex-valued time-domain SC-FDMA signal) and transmitted from each antenna port.

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 the present embodiment (example: resource pool setting, resource allocation, etc.). have. Further, the base station 10 may be an RSU (gNB type RSU).

Further, in the wireless communication system according to the embodiment of the present invention, the signal waveform used by the terminal 20 for SL or UL may be OFDMA, SC-FDMA, or other signal waveform. It may be.

In step S101, the terminal 20A autonomously selects a resource to be used for PSCCH and PSCH from a resource selection window having a predetermined period. The resource selection window may be set from the base station 10 to the terminal 20. Here, regarding a predetermined period of the resource selection window, the period may be specified by the implementation conditions of the terminal such as the processing time or the maximum allowable delay time of the packet, or the period may be specified in advance by the specifications. The predetermined period may be referred to as a section on the time domain.

In step S102 and step S103, the terminal 20A transmits SCI (Sidelink Control Information) by PSCCH and / or PSCH using the resource autonomously selected in step S101, and also transmits SL data by PSCH. For example, the terminal 20A may transmit the PSCCH with the same time resource as at least a part of the time resource of the PSCH, using the frequency resource adjacent to the frequency resource of the PSCH.

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 PSFCH resources for the terminal 20B to transmit HARQ-ACK for receiving the data. The terminal 20A may include the information of the resource selected autonomously in the SCI and transmit it.

In step S104, the terminal 20B transmits HARQ-ACK for the received data to the terminal 20A by using the resource of PSFCH determined from the received SCI.

In step S105, the terminal 20A retransmits the PSCCH and PSCH to the terminal 20B when the HARQ-ACK received in step S104 indicates that the retransmission is requested, that is, when it is NACK (negative response). Terminal 20A may retransmit PSCCH and PSCH using autonomously selected resources.

If the HARQ control accompanied by the HARQ feedback is not executed, the steps S104 and S105 may not be executed.

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

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

In step S202 and step S203, the terminal 20A uses the resource autonomously selected in step S201 to transmit SCI by PSCCH and / or PSCH, and also transmits SL data by PSCH. For example, the terminal 20A may transmit the PSCCH with the same time resource as at least a part of the time resource of the PSCH, using the frequency resource adjacent to the frequency resource of the PSCH.

In step S204, the terminal 20A retransmits the SCI by PSCCH and / or the SL data by PSCH to the terminal 20B by using the resource autonomously selected in step S201. The retransmission in step S204 may be executed a plurality of times.

If the blind retransmission is not executed, step S204 may not be executed.

FIG. 12 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example (3) of V2X. The base station 10 may schedule the side link. That is, the base station 10 may determine the resource of the side link used by the terminal 20 and transmit the information indicating the resource to the terminal 20. Further, when HARQ control with HARQ feedback is applied, the base station 10 may transmit information indicating the resources of PSFCH to the terminal 20.

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

Further, in step S301, it is assumed that the base station 10 also transmits DCI for DL scheduling (which may be called DL allocation) to the terminal 20A by PDCCH. Hereinafter, for convenience, the DCI for DL scheduling is referred to as DL scheduling DCI. The terminal 20A that has received the DL scheduling DCI receives the DL data by PDSCH using the resource specified by the DL scheduling DCI.

In step S302 and step S303, the terminal 20A transmits SCI (Sidelink Control Information) by PSCCH and / or PSCH using the resource specified by SL scheduling DCI, and also transmits SL data by PSCH. In SL scheduling DCI, only PSCH resources may be specified. In this case, for example, the terminal 20A may transmit the PSCCH with the same time resource as at least a part of the time resource of the PSCH, using the frequency resource adjacent to the frequency resource of the PSCH.

The terminal 20B receives the SCI (PSCCH and / or PSSCH) and SL data (PSSCH) transmitted from the terminal 20A. The SCI received by the PSCCH and / or the PSSCH contains information on the resources of the PSFCH for the terminal 20B to transmit the HARQ-ACK for the reception of the data.

The information of the resource 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 information of the resource from the DL scheduling DCI or the SL scheduling DCI and SCI. Include in. Alternatively, the DCI transmitted from the base station 10 may not include the information of the resource, and the terminal 20A may autonomously include the information of the resource in the SCI and transmit the information.

In step S304, the terminal 20B transmits HARQ-ACK for the received data to the terminal 20A by using the resource of PSFCH determined from the received SCI.

In step S305, the terminal 20A has a PUCCH (or SL scheduling DCI) designated by the DL scheduling DCI (or SL scheduling DCI) at the timing specified by the DL scheduling DCI (or SL scheduling DCI) (for example, slot unit timing). (Physical uplink control channel) The HARQ-ACK is transmitted using the resource, and the base station 10 receives the HARQ-ACK. The HARQ-ACK codebook may include HARQ-ACK generated based on HARQ-ACK received from the terminal 20B or PSFCH not received, and HARQ-ACK for DL data. However, if DL data is not assigned, HARQ-ACK for DL data is not included. NR Rel. In 16, the HARQ-ACK codebook does not include HARQ-ACK for DL data.

If HARQ control with HARQ feedback is not executed, step S304 and / or step S305 may not be executed.

FIG. 13 is a sequence diagram showing an operation example (4) of V2X. As mentioned above, in the side link of NR, it is supported that the HARQ response is transmitted by PSFCH. As the PSFCH format, for example, the same format as the PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) format 0 can be used. That is, the PSFCH format may have a PRB (Physical Resource Block) size of 1, and ACK and NACK may be sequence-based formats identified by sequence and / or cyclic shift differences. The format of PSFCH is not limited to this. The resources of PSFCH may be arranged in the symbol at the end of the slot or the plurality of symbols at the end. Further, whether or not the period N is set in the PSFCH resource is specified in advance. The period N may be set or predetermined in slot units.

In FIG. 13, 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, may be arranged in a plurality of symbols from the beginning, or may be arranged in a plurality of symbols from a symbol other than 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. In the above-mentioned "slot start" and "slot end", consideration of the symbol for AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and the symbol for transmission / reception switching may be omitted. That is, for example, when one slot is composed of 14 symbols, "the beginning of the slot" and "the end of the slot" mean that the 12 symbols excluding the beginning and ending symbols are the beginning and ending symbols, respectively. You may. In the example shown in FIG. 13, three subchannels are set in the resource pool, and two PSFCHs are arranged after three slots of the slot in which the PSSCH is arranged. The arrow from PSSCH to PSFCH shows an example of PSFCH associated with PSSCH.

When the HARQ response in the group cast of NR-V2X is group cast option 2 for transmitting ACK or NACK, it is necessary to determine the resource used for transmitting and receiving PSFCH. As shown in FIG. 13, in step S401, the terminal 20A, which is the transmitting side terminal 20, performs a group cast to the terminal 20B, the terminal 20C, and the terminal 20D, which are the receiving side terminals 20, via the SL-SCH. In a subsequent step S402, the terminal 20B uses PSFCH # B, the terminal 20C uses PSFCH # C, and the terminal 20D uses PSFCH # D to transmit a HARQ response to the terminal 20A. Here, as shown in the example of FIG. 13, when the number of available PSFCH resources is less than the number of receiving terminals 20 belonging to the group, it is necessary to determine how to allocate the PSFCH resources. .. The transmitting side terminal 20 may know the number of receiving side terminals 20 in the group cast. In group cast option 1, only NACK is transmitted as a HARQ response, and ACK is not transmitted.

FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of sensing operation in NR. In the resource allocation mode 2 (Resource allocation mode 2), the terminal 20 selects a resource and transmits the resource. As shown in FIG. 14, the terminal 20 performs sensing in the sensing window in the resource pool. By sensing, the terminal 20 receives a resource reservation field or a resource allocation field included in the SCI transmitted from another terminal 20, and selects a resource in the resource pool based on the field. Identifies available resource candidates in a window (resourceselectionwindow). Subsequently, the terminal 20 randomly selects a resource from the available resource candidates.

Further, as shown in FIG. 14, the resource pool setting may have a period. For example, the period may be a period of 10240 milliseconds. FIG. 14 is an example in which slots t ₀ ^SL to slot t _Tmax ^SL are set as resource pools. The area of the resource pool in each cycle may be set by, for example, a bitmap.

Further, as shown in FIG. 14, it is assumed that the transmission trigger in the terminal 20 is generated in the slot n and the priority of the transmission is _pTX . The terminal 20 can detect, for example, that another terminal 20 is transmitting the priority _pRX in the sensing window from the slot n-T ₀ to the slot immediately before the slot n-T _{proc, 0} . .. When SCI is detected in the sensing window and RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) exceeds the threshold value, the resource in the resource selection window corresponding to the SCI is excluded. Further, when SCI is detected in the sensing window and RSRP is less than the threshold value, the resource in the resource selection window corresponding to the SCI is not excluded. The threshold value may be, for example, the threshold values Th _{pTX, pRX} set or defined for each resource in the sensing window based on the priority _pTX and the priority _pRX .

Further, as in the slot _tm ^SL shown in FIG. 14, resources in the resource selection window that are candidates for resource reservation information corresponding to the resources in the sensing window that have not been monitored for transmission are excluded.

In the resource selection window from slot n + T ₁ to slot n + T ₂ , as shown in FIG. 14, a resource occupied by another UE is identified, and a resource excluding the resource is a usable resource candidate. Assuming that the set of available resource candidates is SA, if SA is less than 20% of the resource selection window, the thresholds Th _pTX _{and pRX} _set for each resource in the sensing window are increased by 3 dB and the resource is again increased. Identification may be performed. That is, by increasing the threshold values Th _{pTX and pRX} and executing resource identification again, the resources that are not excluded because RSRP is less than the threshold value are increased, and the set _SA of resource candidates becomes 20% or more of the resource selection window. It may be. When SA is less than 20% of the resource selection window, the operation of increasing the threshold values Th _pTX _{and pRX} set for each resource in the sensing window by 3 dB and executing resource identification again may be repeated.

The lower layer of the terminal 20 may report _SA to the upper layer. The upper layer of the terminal 20 may execute a random selection for _SA to determine the resource to be used. The terminal 20 may execute the side link transmission using the determined resource.

Although the operation of the transmitting side terminal 20 has been described with reference to FIG. 14 above, the receiving side terminal 20 detects data transmission from the other terminal 20 based on the result of sensing or partial sensing, and the other terminal is concerned. Data may be received from 20.

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, the terminal 20 executes sensing in the sensing window. When the terminal 20 performs a power saving operation, sensing may be executed for a predetermined limited period. Subsequently, the terminal 20 identifies each resource in the resource selection window based on the sensing result, determines a set _SA of resource candidates, and selects a resource to be used for transmission (S502). Subsequently, the terminal 20 selects a resource set (r_0, r_1, ...) For determining preemption from the set of resource candidates _SA (S503). The resource set may be notified from the upper layer to the PHY layer as a resource for determining whether or not it is preempted.

In step S504, the terminal 20 re-identifies each resource in the resource selection window based on the sensing result at the timing of T ₍ r_0) -T3 shown in FIG. 16 and determines the set _SA of resource candidates. Further, the preemption is determined for the resource set (r_0, r_1, ...) Based on the priority. For example, in r_1 shown in FIG. 16, SCI transmitted from another terminal 20 is detected by re-sensing, and is not included in _SA . When preemption is enabled, if the value prio_RX indicating the priority of SCI transmitted from the other terminal 20 is lower than the value prio_TX indicating the priority of the transport block transmitted from the own terminal, the terminal 20 uses the resource r_1. Judged as preempted. The lower the value indicating the priority, the higher the priority. That is, when the value prio_RX indicating the priority of SCI transmitted from the other terminal 20 is higher than the value prio_TX indicating the priority of the transport block transmitted from the own terminal, the terminal 20 does not exclude the resource _{r_1} from SA. .. Alternatively, if preemption is valid only for a particular priority (eg, sl-PreemptionEnable is pl1, pl2, ..., pl8), this priority is 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 the prio_pre and the prio_RX is lower than the value prio_TX indicating the priority of the transport block transmitted from the own terminal. The terminal 20 determines that the resource r_1 is preempted.

In step S505, when the preemption is determined in step S504, the terminal 20 notifies the upper layer of the preemption, reselects the resource in the upper layer, and ends the preemption.

As described above, in the NR-V2X, the autonomous resource selection mode (mode 2) by the terminal 20 is defined, and as described with reference to FIG. 14, the operation of identifying the resource is executed in the resource selection window.

FIG. 17 is a diagram showing an example of resource exclusion in the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 17, resources that can be reserved may be excluded from the resource selection window from the slots that could not be sensed because, for example, transmission was performed. The resources that can be reserved are all resources at equal intervals that can be reserved based on the cycle from the resources that have not been sensed, assuming all the cycles set by RRC.

FIG. 18 is a flowchart for explaining the details of the preemption operation in the embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 18, steps S503 and S504 shown in FIG. 15 will be described in detail with a focus on operations in the PHY layer.

In step S601, the PHY layer receives the preemption and / or re-evaluation request from the upper layer together with the target resource set (r_0, r_1, ...).

In a subsequent step S602, the PHY layer excludes resources that can be reserved from _unsensed resources from SA based on all allowed resource reservation cycles in the set of resource candidates _SA . The operation of excluding the resource in step S602 corresponds to the resource exclusion described with reference to FIG.

In a subsequent step S603, if the RSRP of the received SCI exceeds the threshold corresponding to the priority, the PHY layer excludes the resource indicated by the resource reservation field of the _SCI from SA.

In the subsequent step S604, if the resource _{r_k} is a resource excluded from SA in step S603 and the value indicating the priority of the received SCI is smaller than the value indicating the priority of transmission, the PHY layer is determined. , Determines that the resource r_k has been preempted.

Here, in step S602, the periodic resource is excluded from _SA . On the other hand, since the periodic resource is not excluded in step S603, it is not possible to determine whether or not it was preempted in step S604.

As mentioned above, there is a problem that preemption cannot be determined for periodic resources. Therefore, in the resource identification step in the PHY layer, a new resource exclusion operation may be executed based on the information related to preemption or re-evaluation.

Option 1 and / or option 2 shown below may be executed as the operation related to the new resource exclusion.

Option 1) In step S602, for example, it is not necessary to exclude some of the resources that can be reserved from the resources that are not sensed for transmission. For example, some of the resources that can be reserved that are not excluded may be the resource having the smallest corresponding slot index among the resources notified from the upper layer when the preemption request is instructed by the upper layer. Also, for example, some of the resources that can be reserved that are not excluded may be either resources notified from the upper layer when a request for preemption or a request for re-evaluation is instructed by the upper layer.

Option 2) When the preemption request is instructed from the upper layer in step S603, regardless of whether the resource is excluded in step S602 in addition to the resource indicated by the resource reservation field of the received SCI. Of the resources notified from the upper layer, the resource with the smallest corresponding slot index may be excluded. That is, even if the resource is excluded in step S602, it may be considered that the resource is excluded in step S603.

The above option 1 and the above option 2 may be applied independently or both may be applied at the same time.

The above information relating to the preemption or re-evaluation may be a preemption request received from the upper layer in step S601, a re-evaluation request, a preemption and / or a re-evaluation request. You may.

Further, the above-mentioned information related to preemption or re-evaluation may be the type of resource for which preemption or re-evaluation is requested received from the upper layer in step S601. For example, the type of the resource may be a periodic resource or an aperiodic resource.

For example, when the type of the resource is a periodic resource, the above option 1 and / or the above option 2 may be applied. When the resource type is an aperiodic resource, the above option 1 and the above option 2 may not be applied.

For example, a resource for which preemption or re-evaluation is requested is a set of resources (r ₀ , r ₁ , r ₂ , ... -) Or ( _r'0 , _r'1 , _r'2 , ...).

Further, for example, a resource for which preemption or re-evaluation is requested is a set of resources (r ₀ , r ₁ , r ₂ , etc.) notified to the PHY layer when preemption or re-evaluation is requested from a higher layer. ...) Or ( _r'0 , _r'1 , _r'2 , ...) may be the resource with the smallest slot index.

Further, the above-mentioned information related to preemption or re-evaluation may be the cycle of the periodic resource for which preemption or re-evaluation is requested received from the upper layer in step S601. For example, if the period is equal to or greater than the threshold X, option 1 and / or option 2 may be applied, and if the period is smaller than the threshold X, option 1 and option 1 and options 2 may be applied. It is not necessary to apply 2. Further, for example, if the period is larger than the threshold value X, the option 1 and / or the option 2 may be applied, and if the period is equal to or smaller than the threshold value X, the option 1 and / or the option 2 may be applied. It is not necessary to apply the above option 2.

According to the above embodiment, the terminal 20 can improve the reliability at the time of determining whether or not it is preempted by another terminal 20 in the resource identification after sensing.

That is, in direct communication between terminals, it is possible to improve the reliability of communication when autonomous resource selection is performed.

Further, "judgment (decision)" may be read as "assuming", "expecting", "considering" and the like.

The terms "connected", "coupled", or any variation thereof, mean any direct or indirect connection or connection between two or more elements and each other. It can include the presence of one or more intermediate elements between two "connected" or "combined" elements. The connection or connection between the elements may be physical, logical, or a combination thereof. For example, "connection" may be read as "access".

Can be considered to be "connected" or "coupled" to each other using electromagnetic energy having wavelengths in the microwave and light (both visible and invisible) regions.

The reference signal can also be abbreviated as RS (Reference Signal), and may be called a pilot (Pilot) depending on the applied standard.

The statement "based on" used in this disclosure does not mean "based on" unless otherwise stated. In other words, the statement "based on" means both "based only" and "at least based on".

Any reference to elements using designations such as "first" and "second" as used in this disclosure does not generally limit the quantity or order of those elements. These designations can be used in the present disclosure as a convenient way to distinguish between two or more elements. Therefore, references to the first and second elements do not mean that only two elements can be adopted, or that the first element must somehow precede the second element.

The "means" in the configuration of each of the above devices may be replaced with a "part", a "circuit", a "device", or the like.

When "include", "including" and variations thereof are used in the present disclosure, these terms are as inclusive as the term "comprising". Is intended. Moreover, the term "or" used in the present disclosure is intended not to be an exclusive OR.

The wireless frame may be composed of one or more frames in the time domain. Each one or more frames in the time domain may be referred to as a subframe. The subframe may further be composed of one or more slots in the time domain. The subframe may have a fixed time length (eg, 1 ms) that does not depend on numerology.

The numerology may be a communication parameter applied to at least one of transmission and reception of a signal or channel. Numerology includes, for example, subcarrier interval (SCS: SubCarrier Spacing), bandwidth, symbol length, cyclic prefix length, transmission time interval (TTI: Transmission Time Interval), number of symbols per TTI, wireless frame configuration, transmitter / receiver. It may indicate at least one of a specific filtering process performed in the frequency domain, a specific windowing process performed by the transmitter / receiver in the time domain, and the like.

The slot may be composed of one or more symbols (OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbol, SC-FDMA (Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access) symbol, etc.) in the time region. Slots may be time units based on numerology.

The slot may include a plurality of mini slots. Each minislot may be composed of one or more symbols in the time domain. Further, the mini-slot may be referred to as a sub-slot. A minislot may consist of a smaller number of symbols than the slot. The PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted in time units larger than the minislot may be referred to as PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type A. The PDSCH (or PUSCH) transmitted using the minislot may be referred to as PDSCH (or PUSCH) mapping type B.

The wireless frame, subframe, slot, minislot and symbol all represent the time unit when transmitting a signal. The radio frame, subframe, slot, minislot and symbol may use different names corresponding to each.

For example, one subframe may be called a transmission time interval (TTI), a plurality of consecutive subframes may be called TTI, and one slot or one minislot may be called TTI. You may. That is, at least one of the subframe and TTI may be a subframe (1 ms) in existing LTE, a period shorter than 1 ms (eg, 1-13 symbols), or a period longer than 1 ms. May be. The unit representing TTI may be called a slot, a mini slot, or the like instead of a subframe.

Here, TTI refers to, for example, the minimum time unit of scheduling in wireless communication. For example, in the LTE system, the base station schedules each terminal 20 to allocate radio resources (frequency bandwidth that can be used in each terminal 20, transmission power, etc.) in TTI units. The definition of TTI is not limited to this.

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

When one slot or one mini slot is called TTI, one or more TTIs (that is, one or more slots or one or more mini slots) may be the minimum time unit for scheduling. Further, the number of slots (number of mini-slots) constituting the minimum time unit of the scheduling may be controlled.

A TTI having a time length of 1 ms may be referred to as a normal TTI (TTI in LTE Rel. 8-12), a normal TTI, a long TTI, a normal subframe, a normal subframe, a long subframe, a slot, or the like. A TTI shorter than a normal TTI may be referred to as a shortened TTI, a short TTI, a partial TTI (partial or fractional TTI), a shortened subframe, a short subframe, a minislot, a subslot, a slot, or the like.

The long TTI (eg, normal TTI, subframe, etc.) may be read as a TTI having a time length of more than 1 ms, and the short TTI (eg, shortened TTI, etc.) may be read as a TTI less than the TTI length of the long TTI and 1 ms. It may be read as TTI having the above TTI length.

The resource block (RB) is a resource allocation unit in the time domain and the frequency domain, and may include one or a plurality of continuous subcarriers in the frequency domain. The number of subcarriers contained in the RB may be the same regardless of the numerology, and may be, for example, 12. The number of subcarriers contained in the RB may be determined based on numerology.

Further, the time domain of the RB may include one or more symbols, and may have a length of 1 slot, 1 mini slot, 1 subframe, or 1 TTI. Each 1TTI, 1 subframe, etc. may be composed of one or a plurality of resource blocks.

One or more RBs include a physical resource block (PRB: Physical RB), a sub-carrier group (SCG: Sub-Carrier Group), a resource element group (REG: Resource Element Group), a PRB pair, an RB pair, and the like. May be called.

Further, the resource block may be composed of one or a plurality of resource elements (RE: Resource Element). For example, 1RE may be a radio resource area of 1 subcarrier and 1 symbol.

The bandwidth part (BWP: Bandwidth Part) (which may also be called partial bandwidth) may represent a subset of consecutive common resource blocks (RBs) for a certain neurology in a carrier. Here, the common RB may be specified by the index of the RB with respect to the common reference point of the carrier. PRBs may be defined in a BWP and numbered within that BWP.

The BWP may include a BWP for UL (UL BWP) and a BWP for DL (DL BWP). One or more BWPs may be set in one carrier for the terminal 20.

At least one of the configured BWPs may be active, and the terminal 20 does not have to assume that a predetermined signal / channel is transmitted or received outside the active BWP. In addition, "cell", "carrier" and the like in this disclosure may be read as "BWP".

The above-mentioned structures such as wireless frames, subframes, slots, mini slots and symbols are merely examples. For example, the number of subframes contained in a radio frame, the number of slots per subframe or radioframe, the number of minislots contained within a slot, the number of symbols and RBs contained in a slot or minislot, included in the RB. The number of subcarriers, the number of symbols in the TTI, the symbol length, the cyclic prefix (CP: Cyclic Prefix) length, and other configurations can be changed in various ways.

In the present disclosure, if articles are added by translation, for example, a, an and the in English, the disclosure may include the plural nouns following these articles.

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

Each aspect / embodiment described in the present disclosure may be used alone, in combination, or may be switched and used according to the execution.
