Method and apparatus for transmitting information for D2D operation in wireless communication system
A method and apparatus for transmitting information for device-to-device (D2D) operation in a wireless communication system is provided. A user equipment (UE) establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a network. If the UE has interest to perform D2D operation, the UE transmits D2D information to the network. The D2D information may indicate various pieces of information.
1. A method for transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), information for a device-to-device (D2D) operation in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
establishing, by the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a network;
transmitting, by the UE to the network, D2D information indicating that the UE has an interest to perform reception of a D2D discovery signal;
receiving, by the UE from the network, a configuration of a D2D gap which includes a periodicity of the D2D gap; and
receiving, by the UE from another UE, the D2D discovery signal in the D2D gap.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the D2D information indicates at least one public land mobile network (PLMN) on which the UE wants to perform the reception of the D2D discovery signal.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the D2D information indicates which operation the UE prefers between the reception of the D2D discovery signal and a unicast operation.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the D2D information indicates required range of the reception of the D2D discovery signal.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the required range of the reception of the D2D discovery signal is indicated by at least one of a preferred maximum transmission power for the reception of the D2D discovery signal, a preferred range class for the D2D operation, or a preferred distance range for the reception of the D2D discovery signal.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the D2D information indicates a level of acceptable latency of the reception of the D2D discovery signal.
7. A user equipment (UE) configured to transmit information for a device-to-device (D2D) operation in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a radio frequency (RF) unit; and
a processor, operably coupled to the RF unit, that:
establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a network,
controls the RF unit to transmit, to the network, D2D information indicating that the UE has an interest to perform reception of a D2D discovery,
controls the RF unit to receive, from the network, a configuration of a D2D gap which includes a periodicity of the D2D gap, and
controls the RF unit to receive, from another UE, the D2D discovery signal in the D2D gap.
