Mobile communication system and mobile communication method
In a mobile communication system, user data is communicated directly among a plurality of radio terminals without passing through a radio base station. The communication of user data directly performed among the plurality of radio terminals is performed by using a part of radio resources assigned to the mobile communication system. A D2D terminal included in the plurality of radio terminals notifies the radio base station of an identifier of a neighboring terminal located in the neighborhood of the D2D terminal, or the neighboring terminal notifies the radio base station of the identifier of the D2D terminal.
1. A radio terminal, comprising:
a receiver;
a controller; and
a transmitter; wherein
the receiver is configured to receive information on radio resources for direct communication from a base station by broadcast,
the controller is configured to perform the direct communication by use of a radio resource autonomously selected among the radio resources;
the receiver is configured to directly receive a radio signal from another radio terminal during performing the direct communication by use of the radio resources;
the controller is configured to compare received power of the radio signal with a threshold value, wherein the threshold value is not a received power value from another radio terminal; and
the transmitter is configured to:
notify the base station of information on the received power in response to the received power being larger than the threshold value; and
not notify the base station of the information on the received power in response to the received power being smaller than the threshold value.
2. The radio terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the transmitter is configured to notify the base station of the received power, together with an identifier of the another radio terminal.
3. The radio terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the receiver is configured to receive an instruction from the base station, and
the transmitter is configured to notify the base station of an identifier of the another radio terminal in response to the instruction.
4. A mobile communication method, comprising:
transmitting, by a base station, information on radio resources for direct communication by broadcast;
receiving, by a radio terminal, the information on radio resources for direct communication, from the base station;
performing, by the radio terminal, the direct communication by use of a radio resource autonomously selected among the radio resources;
directly receiving, by the radio terminal, a radio signal from another radio terminal during performing the direct communication by use of the radio resources;
comparing, by the radio terminal received power of the radio signal with a threshold value, wherein the threshold value is not a received power value from another radio terminal;
notifying, by the radio terminal, the base station of information on the received power in response to the received power being larger than the threshold value; and
not notifying, by the radio terminal, the base station of the information on the received power in response to the received power being smaller than the threshold value.
5. The mobile communication method according to claim 4 , further comprising:
notifying the base station of an identifier of the another radio terminal; and
controlling, by the base station, a radio resource to be assigned to the radio terminal on the basis of the identifier of the another radio terminal.
6. A processor of a radio terminal, the processor communicatively coupled to a memory and configured to:
receive information on radio resources for direct communication from a base station by broadcast;
perform the direct communication by use of a radio resource autonomously selected among the radio resources;
directly receive a radio signal from another radio terminal during performing the direct communication by use of the radio resources;
compare received power of the radio signal with a threshold value, wherein the threshold value is not a received power value from another radio terminal; and
notify the base station of information on the received power in response to the received power larger than the threshold value; and
not notify the network of the received power in response to the received power being smaller than the threshold value.
7. The radio terminal according to claim 1 , wherein
the receiver is configured to receive information on a determination time range indicating a time range in which the radio terminal determines whether the received power is larger than the threshold value.
