Wireless communication method for device to device communication and user equipment
Provided are wireless communication methods for D2D communication and UEs therefor. A wireless communication method involves transmitting either a first DCI or a second DCI based on whether a first UE and a second UE are to be in a communication type of groupcast or unicast. In the wireless communication methods, the first DCI and the second DCI are scrambled by the UE ID of the second UE if the first UE and the second UE are in the communication type of unicast upon transmitting the first DCI and the second DCI, and the first DCI and the second DCI are scrambled by the group ID if the first UE and the second UE are in the communication type of groupcast upon transmitting the first DCI and the second DCI.
1. A wireless communication method performed by a first user equipment (UE) in a device-to-device (D2D) communication with a second UE, the method comprising:
scrambling control information by a second UE ID, the control information including a first group ID and resource allocation information, the resource allocation information indicating an allocated resource including a frequency hopping pattern of the allocated resource;
transmitting the control information by a physical control channel from the first UE to the second UE; and
transmitting a physical shared channel, which is scrambled by the first group ID, in groupcast from the first UE to the second UE.
2. The wireless communication method according to claim 1 , wherein
the resource allocation information indicates a transmission life of the allocated resource in the unit of Transmission Time Interval (TTI).
3. The wireless communication method according to claim 1 , wherein
the resource allocation information indicates the allocated resource including a time resource pattern of the allocated resource.
4. The wireless communication method according to claim 1 , wherein
a groupcast communication type is implicitly indicated by a physical resource block (PRB) index or a control channel element (CCE) index of the control information, or by a PRB index of the physical shared channel, or by a PRB index difference between the control information and the physical shared channel.
5. A first user equipment (UE) for a device-to-device (D2D) communication with a second UE, the first UE comprising:
circuitry, which, in operation, scrambles control information by a second UE ID, the control information including a first group ID and resource allocation information, the resource allocation information indicating an allocated resource including a frequency hopping pattern of the allocated resource; and
a transmitter, which is coupled to the circuitry and which, in operation, transmits the control information by a physical control channel from the first UE to the second UE, and
transmits a physical shared channel, which is scrambled by the first group ID, in groupcast from the first UE to the second UE.
6. The user equipment according to claim 5 , wherein
the resource allocation information indicates a transmission life of the allocated resource in the unit of Transmission Time Interval (TTI).
7. The user equipment according to claim 5 , wherein
the resource allocation information indicates the allocated resource including a time resource pattern of the allocated resource.
8. The user equipment according to claim 5 , wherein
a groupcast communication type is implicitly indicated by a physical resource block (PRB) index or a control channel element (CCE) index of the control information, or by a PRB index of the physical shared channel, or by a PRB index difference between the control information and the physical shared channel.
9. The wireless communication method according to claim 3 , wherein
the time resource pattern includes transmission times of the allocated resource, wherein the transmission times indicate how many times a transmission operation is to be performed within a transmission life of the allocated resource.
10. The user equipment according to claim 7 , wherein the time resource pattern includes transmission times of the allocated resource,
wherein the transmission times indicate how many times a transmission operation is to be performed within a transmission life of the allocated resource.
