Abstract

A method for transmitting a discovery signal in a wireless communication system, according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: obtaining resource pool information; and transmitting a discovery signal by using resources indicated in the resource pool information, wherein, in system information received by a terminal, the resource pool information is obtained from system information of a second component carrier if the terminal indicates the system information of the second component carrier that is different from a first component carrier that received system information.

Claims (23)

1. A method of transmitting a discovery signal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

acquiring resource pool information; and

transmitting the discovery signal using a resource indicated by the resource pool information,

wherein, when system information received by a user equipment (UE) indicates system information of a secondary cell (SCell) different from a primary cell (PCell) in which the UE receives the system information, the resource pool information is acquired from the system information of the SCell,

wherein, when the UE transmits the discovery signal in the SCell using the resource pool information acquired from the system information of the SCell, the discovery signal is transmitted using sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) identification (ID) configured to transmit to the SCell from the PCell, and

wherein, the SLSS ID configured to transmit to the SCell from the PCell is used to identify whether transmission timing of the discovery signal transmitted in a resource pool corresponding to the SCell is downlink (DL) timing related to the PCell.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the UE decodes the system information of the SCell when the system information received by the UE indicates the system information of the SCell different from the PCell in which the UE receives the system information.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the system information of the SCell different from the PCell in which the UE receives the system information is indicated when the system information of the SCell is changed.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the system information of the PCell and the system information of the SCell are system information block (SIB) 19.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the UE receives the system information in a radio resource control (RRC) idle state.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein, when the system information of the SCell is changed, the UE is paged to receive the system information.

7. A user equipment (UE) for transmitting a discovery signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor,

wherein the processor acquires resource pool information and controls the transceiver to transmit the discovery signal using a resource indicated by the resource pool information, information; and

wherein, when system information received by the UE indicates system information of a secondary cell (SCell) different from a primary cell (PCell) in which the UE receives the system information, the resource pool information is acquired from the system information of the SCell,

wherein, when the UE transmits the discovery signal in the SCell using the resource pool information acquired from the system information of the SCell, the discovery signal is transmitted using sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) identification (ID) configured to transmit to the SCell from the PCell, and

wherein, the SLSS ID configured to transmit to the SCell from the PCell is used to identify whether transmission timing of the discovery signal transmitted in a resource pool corresponding to the SCell is downlink (DL) timing related to the PCell.

8. The UE according to claim 7 , wherein the UE decodes the system information of the SCell when the system information received by the UE indicates the system information of the SCell different from the PCell in which the UE receives the system information.

9. The UE according to claim 7 , wherein the system information of the SCell different from the PCell in which the UE receives the system information is indicated when the system information of the SCell is changed.

10. The UE according to claim 7 , wherein the system information of the PCell and the system information of the SCell are system information block (SIB) 19.

11. The UE according to claim 7 , wherein the UE receives the system information in a radio resource control (RRC) idle state.

12. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein, when the system information of the SCell is changed, the UE is paged to receive the system information.
