Method for contention resolution in a random access procedure in a D2D communication system and device therefor
A method and a device for contention resolution in a random access procedure in a D2D communication system are discussed. The method includes transmitting a message containing a buffer status information for data transmission over PC 5 interface in a random access procedure; receiving a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in response to the message; and considering contention resolution successful if the received PDCCH is addressed to sidelink-RNTI (SL-RNTI).
1. A method for a User Equipment (UE) operating in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting a message including buffer status information for a data transmission over a PC 5 interface in a random access procedure;
receiving a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in response to the message; and
wherein, if the received PDCCH is addressed to a sidelink-radio network temporary identity (SL-RNTI), regardless of the message including buffer status information for a data transmission over a Uu interface, the UE determines that contention resolution of the random access procedure is successful,
wherein if the message does not include the buffer status information for the data transmission over the Uu interface and the received PDCCH is addressed to a cell radio network temporary identity (C-RNTI) and the PDCCH includes an uplink grant for a new transmission, the UE determines that the contention resolution of the random access procedure is not successful,
wherein, if the message further includes the buffer status information for the data transmission over the Uu interface and the received PDCCH is addressed to the C-RNTI and the PDCCH includes the uplink grant for the new transmission, the UE determines that the contention resolution of the random access procedure is successful, and
wherein the PDCCH addressed to the SL-RNTI includes a sidelink grant used for the data transmission over the PC 5 interface, and a value of a Scheduling Assignment identifier (SA ID) used for filtering packets at a physical layer is set to a specific value for indicating the sidelink grant does not include any scheduling information of the data transmission over the PC 5 interface.
2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
triggering the random access procedure when the data becomes available for transmission over the PC 5 interface, with the UE maintaining uplink synchronization for a network.
3. A User Equipment (UE) operating in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor configured to control the transceiver,
wherein the processor is configured to:
transmit a message including buffer status information for data transmission over a PC 5 interface in a random access procedure,
receive a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in response to the message, and
wherein, if the received PDCCH is addressed to a sidelink-radio network temporary identity (SL-RNTI), regardless of the message including buffer status information for a data transmission over a Uu interface, the UE determines that contention resolution of the random access procedure is successful,
wherein if the message does not include the buffer status information for the data transmission over the Uu interface and the received PDCCH is addressed to a cell radio network temporary identity (C-RNTI) and the PDCCH includes an uplink grant for a new transmission, the UE determines that the contention resolution of the random access procedure is not successful,
wherein, if the message further includes the buffer status information for the data transmission over the Uu interface and the received PDCCH is addressed to the C-RNTI and the PDCCH includes the uplink grant for the new transmission, the UE determines that the contention resolution of the random access procedure is successful, and
wherein the PDCCH addressed to the SL-RNTI includes a sidelink grant used for the data transmission over the PC 5 interface, and a value of a Scheduling Assignment identifier (SA ID) used for filtering packets at a physical layer is set to a specific value for indicating the sidelink grant does not include any scheduling information of the data transmission over the PC 5 interface.
4. The UE according to claim 3 , wherein the processor is further configured to trigger the random access procedure when the data becomes available for transmission over the PC 5 interface, with the UE maintaining uplink synchronization for a network.
