Abstract

There are provided a device-to-device communication method, a mobile device using the same, and a device-to-device communication control method. The device-to-device communication method according to the invention may include receiving device-to-device communication resource allocation information and transmission characteristics information for device-to-device communication from a base station, and performing direct communication with an opposite terminal using the transmission characteristics information for device-to-device communication and the device-to-device communication resource allocation information, in which the transmission characteristics information includes the number of redundancy versions to be transmitted within at least one consecutive transmission time interval (TTI).

Claims (10)

1. A device-to-device (D2D) communication method performed by a first terminal, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, transmission characteristics information including a valid period in which a D2D communication is permitted and wireless resources which are available for the D2D communication and are configured in the valid period; and

transmitting, to a second terminal, a redundancy version (RV) #0, a RV #1, a RV #2 and a RV #3 of a transport block using consecutive D2D transmission time intervals (TTIs) which are configured in the wireless resources of the valid period, without hybrid automatic repeat-request acknowledge/negative acknowledge (HARQ ACK/NACK) response from the second terminal or the base station,

wherein the RV #0, the RV #1, the RV #2, and the RV #3 are combined to recover error in decoding the transport block by the second terminal, and

wherein a HARQ ACK/NACK feedback response procedure with regard to reception of the RV #0, the RV #1, the RV #2, and the RV #3 is not performed in the second terminal in the valid period.

2. A device-to-device (D2D) communication method performed by a second terminal, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, transmission characteristics information including a valid period in which a D2D communication is permitted and wireless resources which are available for the D2D communication and are configured in the valid period; and

receiving, from a first terminal, a redundancy version (RV) #0, a RV #1, a RV #2, and a RV #3 of a transport block using consecutive D2D transmission time intervals (TTIs) which are configured in the wireless resources of the valid period, without hybrid automatic repeat-request acknowledge/negative acknowledge (HARQ ACK/NACK) response to the first terminal or the base station,

wherein the second terminal combines the RV #0, the RV #1, the RV #2, and the RV #3 to recover error in decoding the transport block, and

wherein a HARQ ACK/NACK feedback response procedure with regard to reception of the RV #0, the RV #1, the RV #2, and the RV #3 is not performed in the second terminal in the valid period.
