Method and apparatus for device-to-device user equipment to transmit signal in wireless communication system
One embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for a user equipment to transmit a device-to-device (D2D) signal in a time division duplex (TDD) wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: generating a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal; and transmitting a subframe in which the primary synchronization signal and the secondary synchronization signal are mapped, wherein, if the cell selection reception level value and the cell selection quality value of the user equipment are all greater than 0, then the user equipment applies a fixed timing advance offset value (e.g. 624 Ts) that is greater than 0 when transmitting the subframe.
1. A method of transmitting synchronization signals in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a synchronization signal; and
transmitting, by the UE, a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), based on the received synchronization signal,
wherein a timing advance offset applied to the transmitting of the PSS and SSS based on the UE being in coverage has a value greater than 0, and
wherein a timing advance offset applied to the transmitting of the PSS and SSS based on the UE being out of coverage has a value equal to 0 regardless of whether the received synchronization signal is related to in coverage signal or out of coverage signal.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the timing advance offset having the value greater than 0 is applied based on a radio frame which is the synchronization signal received through.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the timing advance offset having the value greater than 0 is 624 Ts, wherein Ts=1/(15000*2048) seconds.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the PSS and the SSS are mapped to a time resource different from a time resource to which a primary synchronization and a secondary synchronization received by the UE are mapped.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, if a UE receiving the PSS and the SSS is out of coverage, the UE receiving the PSS and SSS recognizes that a duplex mode is time division duplex (TDD) by a format of the synchronization signals.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, if a UE receiving the PSS and the SSS is out of coverage, the UE receiving a subframe including the PSS and the SSS recognizes that a duplex mode is time division duplex (TDD) through information transmitted together with the synchronization signals.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the size of the timing advance offset varies with a hop count.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein a hop count of the UE is greater than 0, and
wherein a hop count of 0 indicates synchronization signal transmission by a base station.
9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the hop count of the UE indicates how many times a synchronization signal is relayed from the base station.
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the PSS and the SSS are Device-to-Device (D2D) synchronization signals.
11. A user equipment (UE) for transmitting synchronization signals in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor,
wherein the processor is configured to:
control the transceiver to receive a synchronization signal, and
control the transceiver to transmit a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), based on the received synchronization signal,
wherein a timing advance offset applied to the transmitting of the PSS and SSS based on the UE being in coverage has a value greater than 0, and
wherein a timing advance offset applied to the transmitting of the PSS and SSS based on the UE being out of coverage has a value equal to 0 regardless of whether the received synchronization signal is related to in coverage signal or out of coverage signal.
