Abstract

A terminal includes a controller and transmitter. The controller configured to select, based on a result of sensing, a radio resource for transmitting the signal. The transmitter configured to transmit a signal. When the controller detects a predetermined first event, the controller removes a radio resource belonging to a first reserved region from selection targets.

Claims (44)

1. A terminal comprising:

a controller configured to select, based on a result of sensing, a radio resource for transmitting a signal; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the signal, wherein

when the controller detects a predetermined first event, the controller removes a first radio resource belonging to a first reserved region from selection targets.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein

when a signal composed of a predetermined signal sequence is detected in a second reserved region, the controller determines that the first event has been detected.

3. The terminal according to claim 2 , wherein

the first reserved region includes a plurality of first divided regions,

the second reserved region includes a plurality of second divided regions,

each of the plurality of first divided regions is corresponded to one of the plurality of second divided regions,

the controller determines whether or not the signal composed of the predetermined signal sequence is detected in each of the plurality of second divided regions, and

the controller removes, from the selection targets, a second radio resource belonging to the first divided region corresponded to the second divided region in which the signal composed of the predetermined signal sequence has been detected.

4. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein

the controller removes, from the selection targets, the first resource belonging to the first reserved region during a time period which is from the detection of the first event to a predetermined time period elapses.

5. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein

the sensing is executed on a predetermined radio resource, and when the first event is not detected, the radio resource belonging to the first reserved region is permitted to be included in the selection targets.

6. The terminal according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a receiver configured to receive from a base station a radio resource control (RRC) message including information indicating the first reserved region.

7. A wireless communication system comprising:

a first terminal configured to select, based on a result of first sensing, a radio resource for transmitting a first signal; and

a second terminal configured to select, based on a result of second sensing, a radio resource for transmitting a second signal; and

the first terminal is configured to remove, from selection targets, a first radio resource belonging to a first reserved region when the first terminal detects a predetermined first event, and

the second terminal is configured to output the first event.

8. The wireless communication system according to claim 7 , wherein

the first terminal is configured to determine that the first event has been detected when a signal composed of a predetermined signal sequence is detected in a second reserved region, and

the second terminal is configured to output the signal composed of the predetermined signal sequence in the second reserved region.

9. The wireless communication system according to claim 7 , wherein

the first reserved region includes a plurality of first divided regions,

the second reserved region includes a plurality of second divided regions,

each of the plurality of first divided regions is associated with a respective one of the plurality of second divided regions,

the first terminal is configured to determine whether the signal composed of the predetermined signal sequence is detected in each of the plurality of second divided regions, and

the first terminal is configured to remove, from the selection targets, a second radio resource belonging to the first divided region associated with the second divided region in which the signal composed of the predetermined signal sequence has been detected, and

the second terminal is configured to output the signal composed of the predetermined signal sequence in one or more of the second divided regions.

10. The wireless communication system according to claim 7 , wherein

the first sensing is executed on a predetermined radio resource, and

when the first radio terminal does not detect the first event, the first radio resource belonging to the first reserved region is permitted to be included in the selection targets.

11. The wireless communication system according to claim 7 , further comprising:

a base station configured to transmit to the first terminal a radio resource control (RRC) message including information indicating the first reserved region.

12. A base station communicating with a terminal, the base station comprising:

a memory; and

a transmitter coupled to the memory and configured to transmit to a terminal a radio resource control (RRC) message including information indicating a reserved region,

wherein a radio resource belonging to the reserved region is removed from selection targets when the terminal detects a predetermined event.

13. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the selection targets are configured by the first reserved region.

14. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined first event is an urgent event.
