Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a terminal and a base station in a wireless communication system and an apparatus for supporting the same. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for operating a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system may include, performing communication through a link established between the UE and another UE; transmitting a first message for requesting an update of an identifier of the link; receiving a second message for responding to the first message; and reestablishing a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity of the UE based on the update of the identifier.

Claims (26)

1. A method for operating a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

performing communication through a link established between the UE and a second UE;

transmitting a first message for requesting an update for an identifier of the link;

receiving a second message in response to the first message; and

reestablishing a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity of the UE based on the update of the identifier,

wherein the first message includes information related to a starting time to apply the updated identifier, and

wherein the second message includes information related to whether to accept the starting time to apply the updated identifier.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PDCP entity is reestablished based on the update of the identifier being indicated from an upper layer of the UE.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first message includes a new identifier of the UE for the link, and

wherein the second message includes a new identifier of the second UE for the link.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifier comprises at least one of a layer-2 identifier (ID) and a security key ID.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the link comprises a link for a unicast sidelink communication.

6. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and is configured to:

perform communication through a link established between the UE and a second UE,

transmit, by the transceiver, a first message for requesting an update for an identifier of the link,

receive, by the transceiver, a second message in response to the first message, and

reestablish a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) entity of the UE based on the update of the identifier,

wherein the first message includes information related to a starting time to apply the updated identifier, and

wherein the second message includes information related to whether to accept the starting time to apply the updated identifier.

7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the PDCP entity is reestablished based on the update of the identifier being indicated from an upper layer of the UE.

8. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the first message includes a new identifier of the first UE for the link, and

wherein the second message includes a new identifier of the second UE for the link.

9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the identifier comprises at least one of a layer-2 identifier (ID) and a security key ID.

10. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the link comprises a link for a unicast sidelink communication.
