Abstract

Claims (47)

1. A method for transmitting a plurality of Cooperative Awareness Message (CAM) information in a V2X system, the method performed by a vehicle comprising:

transmitting, to a base station, a first message including first information representing whether aggregation of the plurality of CAM information is possible through a first interface;

receiving, from the base station, a second message requesting transmission by combining the plurality of CAM information;

receiving, from surrounding vehicles, the plurality of CAM information through a second interface; and

transmitting, to the base station, a third message including the plurality of CAM information through the first interface,

wherein a transmission period of the third message is determined based on a Channel Busy Ratio (CBR) of a channel between the vehicle and the base station,

wherein the third message is transmitted to the base station based on no other vehicle transmitting CAM information to the base station before a timer expires, and

wherein the timer is configured to a specific value based on the CBR.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing processing to combine the plurality of CAM information received from the surrounding vehicles.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second information represents a type supporting only 3GPP communication, a type supporting both the 3GPP communication and ITS-G5 communication, or a type supporting only the ITS-G5 communication.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first message further includes second information on a communication type supported by a vehicle.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first message further includes third information representing a quantity for a plurality of combinable CAM information.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the second message is transmitted to the vehicle based on at least one of the CBR, a distance between vehicles capable of combining a plurality of CAM information, or the third information.

7. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the first interface is a Uu interface, and

wherein the second interface is an ITS-G5 communication related interface.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the timer is configured to the specific value, based on no other vehicle within a specific radius of the vehicle is transmitting the third message to the base station, and

wherein the specific value and the specific radius are each configured based on the CBR.

9. A method for receiving a plurality of Cooperative Awareness Message (CAM) information in a V2X system, the method performed by a base station comprising:

receiving, from at least one vehicle, a first message including at least one of first information representing whether aggregation of the plurality of CAM information is possible or second information representing a quantity for a plurality of combinable CAM information through a first interface;

determining a specific vehicle to transmit by combining the plurality of CAM information based on at least one of the first message, a channel busy ratio (CBR), or a distance between vehicles capable of combining the plurality of CAM information;

transmitting, to the specific vehicle, a second message requesting transmission by combining the plurality of CAM information through the first interface; and

receiving, from the specific vehicle, a third message including the plurality of CAM information through the first interface,

wherein a transmission period of the third message is determined based on the CBR of a channel between the specific vehicle and the base station,

wherein the third message is transmitted to the base station based on no other vehicle transmitting CAM information to the base station before a timer expires, and

wherein the timer is configured to a specific value based on the CBR.

10. The method of claim 9 ,

wherein the first message further includes third information on a communication type supported by a vehicle.

11. The method of claim 10 ,

wherein the third information represents a type supporting only 3GPP communication, a type supporting both the 3GPP communication and ITS-G5 communication, or a type supporting only the ITS-G5 communication.

12. The method of claim 9 ,

wherein the first interface is a Uu interface,

wherein the second interface is an ITS-G5 communication related interface.

13. A V2X communication device of a vehicle, comprising:

memory for storing data;

a transmitter for transmitting a radio signal;

a receiver for receiving a radio signal; and

a processor for controlling the memory, the transmitter, and the receiver,

wherein the processor is configured to control:

the transmitter to transmit, to a base station, a first message including first information representing whether aggregation of a plurality of CAM information is possible through a first interface;

the receiver to receive, from the base station, a second message requesting transmission by combining the plurality of CAM information;

the receiver to receive, from surrounding vehicles, the plurality of CAM information through a second interface; and

the transmitter to transmit, to the base station, a third message including the plurality of CAM information through the first interface,

wherein a transmission period of the third message is determined based on a Channel Busy Ratio (CBR) of a channel between the vehicle and the base station,

wherein the third message is transmitted to the base station based on no other vehicle transmitting CAM information to the base station before a timer expires, and

wherein the timer is configured to a specific value based on the CBR.
