Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. In detail, the present invention is a method for transmitting data to a base station (BS) at a user equipment. The method comprises: receiving information regarding a contention-based Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) zone including a plurality of contention-based PUSCH blocks; allocating at least one contention-based PUSCH resource block for transmission of the data based on the contention-based PUSCH zone information; and transmitting the data to the base station (BS).

Claims (25)

1. A method for transmitting data to a base station (BS) at a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

receiving information regarding a contention-based Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) zone including a plurality of contention-based PUSCH resource blocks;

allocating at least one contention-based PUSCH resource block for transmission of the data based on the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone; and

transmitting the data and a random access preamble to the BS,

wherein, when the UE determines to transmit the data using the contention-based PUSCH zone, the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone is received through a unicast message; and

wherein a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) for transmitting the random access preamble is allocated in ever subframe, and the contention-based PUSCH zone is allocated at a predetermined subframe interval.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone includes at least one of information for transmission of the data, which includes at least one of a maximum resource block size per UE, a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) level, and an initial transmission power reference, and information regarding resources in which the contention-based PUSCH zone is configured.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the data includes a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the information regarding the contention based PUSCH zone is information for M contention-based PUSCH zones, and one contention-based PUSCH zone includes N contention-based PUSCH resource blocks,

wherein M and N are integers equal to or greater than 1.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the at least one contention-based PUSCH resource block allocated for transmission of the data is selected from among a plurality of candidate contention-based PUSCH resource blocks,

wherein a number of the plurality of candidate contention-based PUSCH resource blocks is M times N.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the data is transmitted to the BS without reception of an uplink (UL) grant needed for transmission of the data.

7. A method for receiving data from a user equipment (UE) by a base station (BS), the method comprising:

transmitting information regarding a contention based Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) zone including a plurality of contention-based PUSCH resource blocks; and

receiving the data and a random access preamble from the UE,

wherein the data is allocated to at least one contention-based PUSCH resource block based on the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone, and is then transmitted,

wherein, when the UE determines to transmit the data using the contention-based PUSCH zone, the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone is transmitted through a unicast message, and

wherein a physical Random Access Channel (PRACH) for receiving the random access preamble is allocated in every subframe, and the contention-based PUSCH zone is allocated at a predetermined sub at interval.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone includes at least one of information for transmission of the data, which includes at least one of a maximum resource block size per UE, a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) level, and an initial transmission power reference, and information regarding resources in which the contention-based PUSCH zone as configured.

9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the information regarding the contention-based PUSCH zone is information for M contention-based PUSCH zones, and one contention-based PUSCH zone includes N contention-based PUSCH resource blocks,

wherein M and N are integers equal to or greater than 1.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the at least one contention-based PUSCH resource block to which resources for the data are allocated is selected from among a plurality of candidate contention-based PUSCH resource blocks,

wherein a number of the plurality of candidate contention-based PUSCH resource blocks is M times N.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the data is transmitted to the BS without reception of an uplink (UL) gram needed for transmission of the data at the UE.
