Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and a device for performing management of local id identifying a remote UE in a relay UE in wireless communication system, the method comprising: generating a local ID identifying a remote UE of which transmits/receives data to/from a eNB via the relay UE, wherein the generated local ID is derived from RAT specific ID which is acquired during discovery procedure and linking process between the remote UE and the relay UE; receiving RRC connection request message from the remote UE; and transmitting the RRC connection request message for the remote UE using the generating local ID to the eNB.

Claims (22)

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

generating a local identifier (ID) identifying a remote UE of which transmits/receives data to/from an eNodeB (eNB) via the relay UE, wherein the generated local ID is derived from Radio Access Technology (RAT) specific ID which is acquired during discovery procedure and linking process between the remote UE and the relay UE;

receiving a first message from the remote UE; and

transmitting the first message for the remote UE using the generated local ID to the eNB.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the generated local ID is a certain number of least significant bits (LSBs) or most significant bits (MSBs) of the RAT specific ID.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein when the first message is received from the remote UE, the relay UE adds the generated local ID in a header of an adaption layer and transmits the first message to the eNB.

4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a second message for the remote UE by including the generated local ID in a header of an adaption layer; and

relaying the second message to the remote UE which is identified by the generated local ID included in the second message transmitted by the eNB.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the first message and the second message are Radio Resource Control (RRC) message or user plane message.

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

a Radio Frequency (RF) module; and

a processor operably coupled with the RF module and configured to:

generate a local identifying (ID) identifying a remote UE of which transmits/receives data to/from an eNodeB (eNB) via the relay UE, wherein the generated local ID is derived from Radio Access Technology (RAT) specific ID which is acquired during discovery procedure and linking process between the remote UE and the relay UE;

receive a first message from the remote UE; and

transmit the first message for the remote UE using the generated local ID to the eNB.

7. The relay UE according to claim 6 , wherein the generated local ID is a certain number of least significant bits (LSBs) or most significant bits (MSBs) of the RAT specific ID.

8. The relay UE according to claim 6 , wherein when the first message is received from the remote UE, the relay UE adds the generated local ID in a header of an adaption layer and transmits the first message to the eNB.

9. The relay UE according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive a second message for the remote UE by including the generated local ID in a header of an adaption layer; and

relay the second message to the remote UE which is identified by the generated local ID included in the second message transmitted by the eNB.

10. The relay UE according to claim 9 , wherein the first message and the second message are Radio Resource Control (RRC) message or user plane message.
