Uplink signal transmission method using contention-based identifiers
The present invention discloses various methods and apparatuses for allocating identifiers and resources associated with a contention-based uplink channel and using the identifiers and resources. An uplink (UL) signal transmission method using a contention-based identifier (CB identifier) according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a step in which user equipment receives, from a base station, a first message containing a CD identifier (CB-RNTI); a step in which the user equipment receives, from the base station, a second message containing information on the allocation of the contention-based uplink (CB UL) channel associated with the CB identifier; and a step in which the user equipment transmits an UL signal to the base station via the CB UL channel.
1. A method for transmitting an uplink (UL) signal using a Contention Based (CB) identifier, the method comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment from a base station, a first message including the CB identifier and period information of a Contention Based Uplink (CB UL) channel associated with the CB identifier;
receiving, by the user equipment from the base station, a second message including allocation information of the CB UL channel;
decoding the second message using the CB identifier at a time point indicated by the period information to check whether or not the CB UL channel has been actually allocated to the user equipment; and
transmitting, by the user equipment to the base station, the UL signal through the CB UL channel.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the CB identifier is allocated to the user equipment taking into consideration service type or latency requirement.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first message is received through a broadcast channel and the second message is received through a downlink physical channel.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the period information of the CB UL channel is determined according to a service type.
5. A method for receiving an uplink (UL) signal using a Contention Based (CB) identifier, the method comprising:
transmitting, by a base station to a user equipment, a first message including the CB identifier and period information of a Contention Based Uplink (CB UL) channel associated with the CB identifier;
transmitting, by the base station to the user equipment, a second message including allocation information of a the CB UL channel;
wherein the second message is decoded by using the CB identifier at a time point indicated by the period information to check whether or not the CB UL channel has been actually allocated to the user equipment; and
receiving, by the base station from the user equipment, the UL signal through the CB UL channel.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the CB identifier is allocated to the user equipment taking into consideration service type or latency requirement.
7. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the first message is received through a broadcast channel and the second message is received through a downlink physical channel.
8. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the period information of the CB UL channel is determined according to a service type.
9. A user equipment for transmitting an uplink (UL) signal using a Contention Based (CB) identifier, the user equipment comprising:
a reception module;
a transmission module; and
a processor configured to:
receive a first message including the CB identifier and period information of a Contention Based Uplink (CB UL) channel associated with the CB identifier from a base station and a second message including allocation information of the CB UL channel from the base station using the reception module,
decode the second message using the CB identifier at a time point indicated by the period information to check whether or not the CB UL channel has been actually allocated to the user equipment, wherein
the user equipment transmits the UL signal to the base station through the CB UL channel using the transmission module.
10. The user equipment according to claim 9 , wherein the CB identifier is allocated to the user equipment taking into consideration service type or latency requirement.
11. The user equipment according to claim 9 , wherein the first message is received through a broadcast channel and the second message is received through a downlink physical channel.
12. The user equipment according to claim 9 , wherein the period information of the CB UL channel is determined according to service type.
