Method and apparatus for transmitting/receiving signal related to device-to-device communication in wireless communication system
Embodiments of the present invention relate to a method for transmitting/receiving a signal related to a device-to-device (D2D) communication by a first user equipment in a wireless communication system. The method comprises the steps of: stopping uplink transmission in a first band for a predetermined time interval and searching for a signal transmitted by a second user equipment; and transmitting a report to a third user equipment when the signal transmitted by the second user equipment is found, wherein the report contains the existence of the second user equipment and information related to a band in which the signal from the second user equipment is received.
1. A method of performing transmission and reception related to device-to-device (D2D) communication, which is performed by a first user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
determining, by the first UE, whether or not the first UE locates at a cell boundary within coverage of a base station;
stopping, by the first UE, uplink transmission to the base station on a first frequency band for a prescribed time period and searching, by the first UE, for a signal transmitted from a second UE during the prescribed time period, when the first UE determines that the first UE locates at the cell boundary within coverage of the base station;
if the signal transmitted from the second UE during the prescribed time period is searched by the first UE, performing, by the first UE, a report to the base station,
wherein the report comprises information on whether the second UE is proximate to the first UE; and
when there is acknowledgement information that should be transmitted in a first subframe included in the prescribed time period in response to a signal transmitted from the base station, but the acknowledgement information cannot be transmitted from the first UE to the base station in the first subframe, transmitting, by the first UE, the acknowledgement information to the base station in a second subframe that is not included in the prescribed time period.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the signal transmitted from the second UE is searched, the first UE reduces uplink transmit power.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the signal transmitted from the second UE is searched, a resource use of a boundary part among the first frequency band is restricted.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein searching for the signal transmitted from the second UE is indicated by downlink control information received from the base station.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the first subframe appears after 4 subframes from a subframe in which the downlink control information is received.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the acknowledgement information configured to be transmitted in the first subframe corresponding to the prescribed time period is bundled in the second subframe.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the signal transmitted by the second UE corresponds to one of a sounding reference signal, a random access preamble, a D2D synchronization signal and a discovery signal.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein a parameter related to transmission of a sounding reference signal or a random access preamble is shared between the first UE and the second UE by the base station.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the report comprises information on a count of hops of the signal transmitted by the second UE hopped from a synchronization cluster header located outside of coverage of the base station.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein if the first UE corresponds to a UE in idle state, the search is indicated by a paging signal.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the signal transmitted by the second UE corresponds to an emergency signal.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second UE corresponds to a UE operating on a second frequency band corresponding to a frequency band related to public safety.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the first frequency band and the second frequency band are different from each other.
14. A first user equipment (UE) for performing transmission and reception related to device-to-device (D2D) communication in a wireless communication system, the first UE comprising:
a transmission module;
a reception module; and
a processor operably coupled with the transmission module and the reception module,
wherein the processor is configured to:
determine whether or not the first UE locates at a cell boundary within coverage of a base station,
stop uplink transmission to the base station on a first frequency band for a prescribed time period and search for a signal transmitted from a second UE, when the first UE locates at the cell boundary within coverage of the base station,
if the signal transmitted from the second UE during the prescribed time period is searched by the processor, perform a report to the base station,
wherein the report comprises information on whether the second UE is proximate to the first UE, and
when there is acknowledgement information that should be transmitted in a first subframe included in the prescribed time period in response to a signal transmitted from the base station, but the acknowledgement information cannot be transmitted from the first UE to the base station in the first subframe, control the transmission module to transmit the acknowledgement information in a second subframe that is not included in the prescribed time period.
