Abstract

A 5 th Generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate than a 4G communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) is provided. A method of an evolved Node B (eNB) can include detecting a collision caused by first data received from a first terminal in a time resource for contention-based uplink data transmission and second data received from a second terminal in the time resource, determining a first delay value in first data retransmission using a dedicated scheduling scheme, and determining a second delay value in the first data retransmission using a contention-based uplink data transmission scheme, determining a scheme for retransmitting the first data based on the first delay value and the second delay value, and transmitting information indicating the determined scheme to the first terminal.

Claims (36)

1. A method of a base station, the method comprising:

determining priorities for a plurality of terminals comprising a first terminal and a second terminal;

transmitting, to the first terminal, priority information of the first terminal and information of a number of the plurality of terminals, and transmitting, to the second terminal, priority information of the second terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals;

detecting a collision caused by first data received from the first terminal in a time resource for contention-based uplink data transmission and second data received from the second terminal in the time resource; and

identifying a first resource for retransmitting the first data based on the priority information of the first terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals, and sending a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal comprising information indicating the collision to identify a second resource for retransmitting the second data based on the priority information of the second terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals, to the first terminal and the second terminal.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving the first data retransmitted from the first terminal in the first resource identified by the first terminal; and

receiving the second data retransmitted from the second terminal in the second resource identified by the second terminal.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the priority information of both the first terminal and the second terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals are transmitted to each of the first terminal and the second terminal through an uplink grant.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first resource corresponds to a priority of the first terminal, and the second resource corresponds to the priority of the second terminal.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining each of priorities for the plurality of terminals comprises:

determining a type of data to receive from the plurality of terminals based on previous transmission information of the plurality of terminals; and

determining the each of priorities for the plurality of terminals based on the determined type of the data.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first resource and the second resource are determined based on a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) period.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first resource and the second resource are determined based on a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) period.

8. An apparatus of a base station, the apparatus comprising:

at least one transceiver; and

at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one transceiver,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

determine priorities for a plurality of terminals comprising a first terminal and a second terminal,

transmit priority information of the first terminal and information of a number of a plurality of terminals to the first terminal, and to transmit priority information of the second terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals to the second terminal,

detect a collision caused by first data received from the first terminal in a time resource for contention-based uplink data transmission and second data received from the second terminal in the time resource, and

identify a first resource for retransmitting the first data based on the priority information of the first terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals, and

transmit a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal comprising information indicating the collision to identify a second resource for retransmitting the second data based on the priority information of the second terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals, to the first terminal and the second terminal.

9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

receive the first data retransmitted from the first terminal in the first resource identified by the first terminal, and

receive the second data retransmitted from the second terminal in the second resource identified by the second terminal.

10. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

transmit the priority information of the first terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals to the first terminal, and

transmit the priority information of the second terminal and the information of the number of the plurality of terminals to the second terminal through an uplink grant.

11. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the first resource corresponds to a priority of the first terminal, and the second resource corresponds to the priority of the second terminal.

12. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

determine a type of data to receive from the plurality of terminals based on previous transmission information of the plurality of terminals, and

determine priorities of the plurality of terminals based on the determined data type.

13. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the first resource and the second resource are determined based on a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) period.

14. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the first resource and the second resource are determined based on a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) period.
