Abstract

The present specification relates to a method for efficiently managing a D2D sidelink process using D2D data priority. The method, which is performed by a D2D receiving device, comprising: from a D2D transmitting device, receiving, through a sidelink physical channel, scheduling assignment (SA) including information regarding transmission of D2D data; receiving, from the D2D transmitting device, the D2D data on the basis of the received scheduling assignment (SA); and performing a sidelink process with respect to the received D2D data.

Claims (23)

1. A method of performing, by a device-to-device (D2D) reception (Rx) user equipment (UE), a D2D communication in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a transmission (Tx) UE, a scheduling assignment (SA) ID for a priority of a D2D data,

wherein the SA ID is generated by a predefined function based on a D2D Rx UE group ID;

obtaining the priority of the D2D data from the SA ID using an inverse function of the predefined function;

receiving, from the Tx UE, the D2D data;

comparing priorities of a plurality of previously received D2D data with the priority of the D2D data; and

when the priority of the D2D data is higher than a lowest priority among the priorities of the plurality of previously received D2D data, and a plurality of resources for decoding the plurality of previously received D2D data are all in use:

a specific resource among the plurality of resources is replaced to be used for decoding the D2D data,

the specific resource is a resource for decoding data having a smallest number of retransmission requests among the plurality of previously received D2D data.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the priority of the D2D data is related with at least one of a service type of the D2D data, a delay requirement, a quality of service (QoS) requirement, a type of the D2D Tx UE, a type of the D2D data or an application category.

3. A device-to-device (D2D) reception (Rx) user equipment (UE) performing communication in a wireless communication system, comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a radio signal; and

a processor configured to control the transceiver,

wherein the processor is configured to:

receive, from a transmission (Tx) UE, a scheduling assignment (SA) ID for a priority of a D2D data,

wherein the SA ID is generated by a predefined function based on a D2D Rx UE group ID,

obtain the priority of the D2D data from the SA ID using an inverse function of the predefined function,

receive, from the Tx UE, the D2D data,

compare priorities of a plurality of previously received D2D data with the priority of the D2D data, and

when the priority of the D2D data is higher than a lowest priority among the priorities of the plurality of previously received D2D data, and a plurality of resources for decoding the plurality of previously received D2D data are all in use:

a specific resource among the plurality of resources is replaced to be used for decoding the D2D data,

the specific resource is a resource for decoding data having a smallest number of retransmission requests among the plurality of previously received D2D data.

4. The D2D Rx UE of claim 3 , wherein the priority of the D2D data is related with at least one of a service type of the D2D data, a delay requirement, a quality of service (QoS) requirement, a type of the D2D Tx UE, a type of the D2D data or an application category.
