Abstract

Disclosed is a resource allocation method in sidelink communication. An operation method of a terminal includes the steps of: receiving a first message, including mobility conditions to be used for selecting a resource allocation mode for sidelink communication, from a base station; selecting the resource allocation mode to be applied to the terminal, the selection being made on the basis of the results of a comparison between the mobility of the terminal and the mobility conditions; determining a resource pool on the basis of the selected resource allocation mode; and performing the sidelink communication by using the determined resource pool. Accordingly, the performance of a communication system can be enhanced.

Claims (33)

1. An operation method of a terminal in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, a message including a speed threshold used to select a resource allocation scheme for sidelink communication;

selecting the resource allocation scheme based on a result of comparing a speed of the terminal and the speed threshold;

determining a sidelink resource based on the selected resource allocation scheme; and

performing the sidelink communication using the determined sidelink resource,

wherein the resource allocation scheme is classified into a type 1-resource allocation scheme and a type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein a first sidelink resource determined based on the type1-resource allocation scheme is different from a second sidelink resource determined based on the type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein, when the speed of the terminal is above the speed threshold, the selected resource allocation scheme is the type1-resource allocation scheme, and when the speed of the terminal is below the speed threshold, the selected resource allocation scheme is the type2-resource allocation scheme.

2. The operation method according to claim 1 , further comprising transmitting, to the base station, an additional message including information indicating the selected resource allocation scheme.

3. An operation method of a base station in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

transmitting, to a terminal, first information of a speed threshold used to select a resource allocation scheme for sidelink communication; and

transmitting, to the terminal, second information of the resource allocation scheme according to the speed threshold,

wherein the resource allocation scheme is classified into a type 1-resource allocation scheme and a type2-resource allocation scheme,

wherein a first sidelink resource determined based on the type1-resource allocation scheme is different from a second sidelink resource determined based on the type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein, when the speed of the terminal is above the speed threshold, the type1-resource allocation scheme is selected by the terminal, and when the speed of the terminal is below the speed threshold, the type2-resource allocation scheme is selected by the terminal.

4. The operation method according to claim 3 , further comprising receiving, from the terminal, a message including information indicating the type 1-resource allocation scheme or the type2-resource allocation scheme selected by the terminal based on a result of comparing the speed of the terminal and the speed threshold.

5. An operation method of a terminal in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

transmitting, to a base station, a first message including a speed of the terminal;

receiving, from the base station, a second message including information indicating a resource allocation scheme selected based on a result of comparing the speed of the terminal and a speed threshold;

determining a sidelink resource for sidelink communication based on the resource allocation scheme; and

performing the sidelink communication using the sidelink resource,

wherein the resource allocation scheme is classified into a type 1-resource allocation scheme and a type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein a first sidelink resource determined based on the type1-resource allocation scheme is different from a second sidelink resource determined based on the type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein, when the speed of the terminal is above the speed threshold, the resource allocation scheme selected by the base station is the type1-resource allocation scheme, and when the speed of the terminal is below the speed threshold, the resource allocation scheme selected by the base station is the type2-resource allocation scheme.

6. The operation method according to claim 5 , wherein the first message further includes position information of the terminal.

7. An operation method of a base station in a communication system, the operation method comprising:

receiving, from a terminal, a first message including a speed of the terminal;

selecting a resource allocation scheme for sidelink communication based on a result of comparing the speed of the terminal and a speed threshold; and

transmitting, to the terminal, a second message including information indicating the resource allocation scheme,

wherein the resource allocation scheme is classified into a type 1-resource allocation scheme and a type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein a first sidelink resource determined based on the type1-resource allocation scheme is different from a second sidelink resource determined based on the type2-resource allocation scheme, and

wherein, when the speed of the terminal is above the speed threshold, the selected resource allocation scheme is the type1-resource allocation scheme, and when the speed of the terminal is below the speed threshold, the selected resource allocation scheme is the type2-resource allocation scheme.

8. The operation method according to claim 7 , wherein the first message further includes position information of the terminal.
