Abstract

One disclosure of the present specification provides a method in which a terminal receives a sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) from a neighboring terminal. The method includes: determining by the terminal a period and the number of times of transmitting the SLSSs; and transmitting by the terminal the SLSS during a first time duration defined on the basis of the period and the number of times. The transmitting of the SLSS may include detecting by the terminal an SLSS transmitted by the neighboring terminal in a second time duration within the first time duration. The terminal may discard transmission of an SLSS corresponding to the second time duration within the first time duration. The second time duration may be included in the first time duration, and the second time duration is less than or equal to 40% of the first time duration.

Claims (26)

1. A method of detecting a sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) of a neighboring terminal by a terminal, the method comprising:

transmitting first SLSSs during a first time duration,

wherein the terminal detects second SLSSs transmitted by the neighboring terminal within the first time duration,

wherein the terminal drops transmission of SLSSs among the first SLSSs to be transmitted during the first time duration according to a preset SLSS drop rate,

wherein the terminal does not drop data signals even though the transmission of SLSSs are allowed to be dropped, and

wherein the preset SLSS drop rate is up to 30%.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the terminal drops transmission of two SLSSs among the first SLSSs to be transmitted during the first time duration.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first time duration is a least common multiple of a SLSS transmission period and a transmission period of a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH).

4. The method of claim 3 ,

wherein the transmission period of the SLSS is 160 ms, and the transmission period of the PSCCH is 100 ms, and

wherein the first time duration is 800 ms.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first time duration is two times a least common multiple of a SLSS transmission period and a transmission period of a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH).

6. The method of claim 5 ,

wherein the SLSS transmission period is 160 ms, and the transmission period of the PSCCH is 100 ms, and

wherein the first time duration is 1600 ms.

7. A terminal for detecting a sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) of a neighboring terminal, the terminal comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit including a transmitter configured to transmit first SLSSs; and

a processor configured to control the RF unit,

wherein the processor,

controls the RF unit to transmit the first SLSSs during a first time duration;

detects second SLSSs transmitted by the neighboring terminal within the first time duration;

drops transmission of SLSSs among the first SLSSs to be transmitted during the first time duration according to a preset SLSS drop rate, and

does not drop data signals even though the transmission of SLSSs are allowed to be dropped, and

wherein the preset SLSS drop rate is up to 30% of the first time duration.

8. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the terminal drops transmission of two SLSSs among the first SLSSs to be transmitted during the first time duration.

9. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the first time duration is a least common multiple of a SLSS transmission period and a transmission period of a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH).
