Apparatus and method for supporting one-to-one communication service in wireless communication system
A method, performed by a first user equipment (UE), of performing unicast communication includes transmitting a direct communication request message, generating a profile for a PC5 unicast link, receiving, from a second UE, a response message based on a result of establishment of the PC5 unicast link; and transmitting, to the second UE, a data message over the PC5 unicast link based on the response message, wherein the profile includes at least one of a Layer-2 identifier (ID) of the first UE, an application layer ID of the first UE, a Layer-2 ID of the second UE, an application layer ID of the second UE, PC5 5 th generation (5G) Quality of Service (QoS) Indicator (PQI), or PC5 QoS Flow identifier (PFI) associated with the PQI.

2. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the Layer-2 ID of the second UE and the Layer-2 ID of the first UE are used for initial signaling to establish the PC5 unicast link, and
wherein a destination Layer-2 ID of the direct communication request message is the Layer-2 ID of the second UE.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the destination Layer-2 ID is equal to or different from Vehicle to Everything (V2X) service types.
4. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the PFI is assigned in a V2X layer of the first UE, and
wherein the V2X layer of the first UE provides at least one of the data message, the PFI, or the PQI to an Access Stratum (AS) layer of the first UE.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising indicating, from a V2X layer to an AS layer, whether the direct communication request message or the response message is for signaling.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising changing at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising updating the profile based on an update of a link layer identifier or a result of the changing of at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
8. A first user equipment (UE) for performing unicast communication, the first UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
transmit a direct communication request message including information about a PC5 Quality of Service (QoS) Flow for establishing a PC5 unicast link;
receive, from a second UE, a response message including a corresponding information about the PC5 QoS Flow requested by the first UE based on a result of an establishment of a the PC5 unicast link; and
transmit, to the second UE, a data message over the PC5 unicast link by using a profile for the PC5 unicast link,
wherein the information about PC5 QoS Flow includes a PC5 QoS Flow identifier (PFI) and a PC5 5th generation (5G) QoS Indicator (PQI), and
wherein the profile includes at least one of: a Layer-2 identifier (ID) of the first UE, an application layer ID of the first UE, a Layer-2 ID of the second UE, an application layer ID of the second UE, a PC5 5th generation (5G) Quality of Service (QoS) Indicator (PQI), or a PC5 QoS Flow identifier (PFI) associated with the PQI.
9. The first UE of claim 8 ,
wherein the Layer-2 ID of the second UE and the Layer-2 ID of the first UE are used for initial signaling to establish the PC5 unicast link, and
wherein a destination Layer-2 ID of the direct communication request message is the Layer-2 ID of the second UE.
10. The first UE of claim 9 , wherein the destination Layer-2 ID is equal to or different from Vehicle to Everything (V2X) service types.
11. The first UE of claim 8 ,
wherein the PFI is assigned in a V2X layer of the first UE, and
wherein the V2X layer of the first UE provides at least one of the data message, the PFI, or the PQI to an Access Stratum (AS) layer of the first UE.
12. The first UE of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to indicate, from a V2X layer to an AS layer, whether the direct communication request message or the response message is for signaling.
13. The first UE of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to change at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
