Abstract

Disclosed are a method for a terminal receiving a sidelink signal for each geographical area in a wireless communication system supporting a sidelink, and a device therefor according to various embodiments. Disclosed are a method for a terminal receiving a sidelink signal for each geographical area and a device therefor, the method comprising the steps of: receiving at least one synchronization signal transmitted for each geographical area; and configuring reception timing for each geographical area on the basis of the at least one synchronization signal and receiving a sidelink signal.

Claims (34)

1. A method of receiving a sidelink signal for each geographic region by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting sidelink, the method comprising:

receiving at least one synchronization signal transmitted in each geographic region; and

receiving the sidelink signal by configuring a reception timing for the sidelink signal for each geographic region based on the at least one synchronization signal,

wherein the sidelink signal is received in a time division multiplexed resource region for the each geographic region, and

wherein, based on overlap of a partial region between time division multiplexed resource regions, the UE demodulates the received sidelink signal by puncturing a resource element or a symbol mapped to the overlapping partial region from the received sidelink signal.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the reception timing is determined based on a reception timing of a synchronization signal for the each geographic region in which the sidelink signal is transmitted.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the reception timing is changed according to the each geographic region in which the sidelink signal is transmitted.

4. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the reception timing is differently configured according to the each geographic region.

5. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the synchronization signal is received a time division multiplexed synchronization resource region for the each geographic region.

6. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein, based on overlap of a partial region between the time division multiplexed resource regions according to the geographic region, the sidelink signal is transmitted by puncturing or rate-matching a resource element or a symbol mapped to the partial region.

7. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein a size of the geographic region is determined based on at least one of a subcarrier spacing, a carrier frequency, or coverage of the UE.

8. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the number of geographic regions is determined based on at least one of a cyclic prefix (CP) length, a subcarrier spacing, a carrier frequency, or coverage of the UE.

9. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein information for the time division multiplexed resource regions is signaled by a network to the UE through a physical layer or higher layer signal.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a first synchronization resource region related to geographic information of the UE among time division multiplexed synchronization resource regions for the each geographic region; and

transmitting the synchronization signal in the determined first synchronization resource region.

11. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein, based on a change of the synchronization resource region related to the geographic information for the UE to a second synchronization resource region, the UE transmits a new synchronization signal in the changed the second synchronization resource region.

12. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the time division multiplexed synchronization resource regions include a preconfigured time gap.

13. An apparatus for configuring a reception timing of a sidelink signal for each geographic region in a wireless communication system supporting sidelink, the apparatus comprising:

a processor; and

a memory connected to the processor,

wherein the processor receives information on at least one synchronization signal transmitted in each geographic region from the memory, and configures a timing at which the sidelink signal is to be received in the geographic region based on the received at least one synchronization signal,

wherein the sidelink signal is received in a time division multiplexed resource region for the each geographic region, and

wherein, based on overlap of a partial region between time division multiplexed resource regions, the UE demodulates the received sidelink signal by puncturing a resource element or a symbol mapped to the overlapping partial region from the received sidelink signal.
