Abstract

Disclosed are operation methods of communication node supporting direct communications in network. The operation method comprises obtaining scheduling information configured for the direct communications from a first base station; identifying modulation and coding scheme (MCS) information and radio resource information included in the scheduling information; and transmitting, to a second UE, a first message to which a MCS indicated by the MCS information is applied through radio resources indicated by the radio resource information. Therefore, performance of a communication system can be enhanced.

Claims (20)

1. An operation method of a user equipment (UE) in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, a signaling message indicating a speed threshold, a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) range which is used when a speed of the UE is above the speed threshold, and a second MCS range which is used when the speed of the UE is below the speed threshold;

determining a MCS value within the first MCS range or the second MCS range which is determined based on the speed of the UE; and

performing a transmission process using the determined MCS value.

2. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein each of the first MCS range and the second MCS range indicates minimum and maximum MCS values.

3. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the transmission process is performed without scheduling of the base station.

4. The operation method of claim 1 , wherein the signaling message further indicates a resource pool in which the transmission process is performed using the first MCS range or the second MCS range.

5. The operation method of claim 4 , wherein the performing the transmission process comprises:

determining resources within the resource pool; and

performing the transmission process using the determined MCS value in the determined resources.

6. The operation method of claim 4 , wherein the resource pool is used for the transmission process in a zone including one or more cells.

7. An operation method of a base station in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

determining a speed threshold;

determining a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) range which is used when a speed of a user equipment (UE) is above the speed threshold and a second MCS range which is used when the speed of the UE is below the speed threshold;

generating a signaling message indicating the speed threshold, the first MCS range, and the second MCS range; and

transmitting the signaling message to the UE.

8. The operation method of claim 7 , wherein each of the first MCS range and the second MCS range indicates minimum and maximum MCS values.

9. The operation method of claim 7 , wherein the signaling message further indicates a resource pool in which a transmission process is performed using the first MCS range or the second MCS range.

10. The operation method of claim 9 , wherein the resource pool is used for the transmission process in a zone including one or more cells.

11. The operation method of claim 9 , wherein the resource pool is configured based on the speed of the UE.
