Based on the information stored in the memory 2032, the microprocessor 2031 controls the drive unit 2002, steering unit 2003, accelerator pedal 2004, brake pedal 2005, shift lever 2006, left and right front wheels 2007, and left and right rear wheels provided in the vehicle 2001. 2008, axle 2009, sensors 2021 to 2028, etc. may be controlled.
- various information traffic information, signal information, inter-vehicle information, etc.
- a first feature is that the controller includes a control unit that assumes allocation of a specific resource allocated in a specific unit in the frequency direction in a non-terrestrial network, and a communication unit that executes communication using the specific resource; is a terminal, which is a unit smaller than the existing allocation unit in the frequency direction.
- a second feature is that in the first feature, the specific resource is allocated to a terminal in the specific unit within one existing frequency direction allocation unit.
- a third feature is that in the first feature or the second feature, the specific resource is periodically allocated to the terminal in the specific unit across two or more frequency direction allocation units.
- a fourth feature is that in at least one of the first to third features, the specific resource performs frequency hopping in the time direction when the specific resource is a physical downlink shared channel resource. It is a terminal that is assigned as follows.
- the non-terrestrial network includes a control unit that executes allocation of a specific resource allocated in a specific unit in the frequency direction, and a communication unit that executes communication using the specific resource, the specific unit is a base station, which is a unit smaller than the existing allocation unit in the frequency direction.
- a sixth feature is that the terminal includes a terminal and a base station, and the terminal includes a control unit that assumes allocation of a specific resource that is allocated in a specific unit in the frequency direction in a non-terrestrial network, and a control unit that assumes allocation of a specific resource in a non-terrestrial network, and that performs communication using the specific resource. and a communication unit that executes the wireless communication system, wherein the specific unit is a unit smaller than an existing allocation unit in the frequency direction.
- a seventh feature includes the steps of assuming the allocation of a specific resource to be allocated in a specific unit in the frequency direction in a non-terrestrial network, and the step of performing communication using the specific resource, wherein the specific unit is: This is a wireless communication method in which the unit is smaller than the existing frequency direction allocation unit.
