Abstract

A communication method for convergence of a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate beyond a 4G system with an IoT technology, and a system therefor is provided. The disclosure may be applied to an intelligent service (for example, smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, health care, digital education, retail business, security and safety-related service, and the like), based on a 5G communication technology and an IoT-related technology. The method includes performing radio link monitoring to support V2X communication in a next-generation mobile communication system.

Claims (41)

1. A method performed by a first user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

performing a communication with a second UE via a sidelink;

identifying whether a condition related to a radio link failure (RLF) for the sidelink is satisfied;

determining that the RLF for the sidelink is detected, in case that the condition is satisfied;

releasing a connection with the second UE based on the RLF for the sidelink being detected; and

transmitting, to a base station, information on the RLF for the sidelink.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

indicating, from an access stratum (AS) layer to an upper layer, the RLF for the sidelink being detected.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the indicating of the RLF being detected comprises indicating a PC5 unicast link identifier to the upper layer.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the releasing of the connection with the second UE comprises releasing at least one of a data radio bearer (DRB) for the sidelink, a signaling radio bearer (SRB) for the sidelink, and a PC5-RRC connection for the sidelink.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on the RLF is transmitted by a sidelink UE information message.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the base station, configuration information for performing the communication with the second UE; and

performing the communication with the second UE, based on the configuration information.

7. The method of claim 6 ,

wherein the configuration information comprises at least one of a timer or a retransmission period.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the condition is satisfied, in case that a maximum retransmission number of data according to the communication with the second UE is identified to be reached by a radio link control (RLC) entity of the first UE.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the base station, an RRC message including sidelink resource information,

wherein the RRC message includes at least one of an RRC connection reconfiguration message or an RRC resume message.

10. A first user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the first UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor configured to:

control the transceiver to perform a communication with a second UE via a sidelink,

identify whether a condition related to a radio link failure (RLF) for the sidelink is satisfied,

determine that the RLF for the sidelink is detected, in case that the condition is satisfied,

control the transceiver to release a connection with the second UE based on the RLF for the sidelink being detected, and

control the transceiver to transmit, to a base station, information on the RLF for the sidelink.

11. The first UE of claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to

control to indicate from an access stratum (AS) layer to an upper layer the RLF being detected.

12. The first UE of claim 11 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control to indicate a PC5 unicast link identifier to the upper layer.

13. The first UE of claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to release at least one of a data radio bearer (DRB) for the sidelink, a signaling radio bearer (SRB) for the sidelink, and a PC5-RRC connection for the sidelink.

14. The first UE of claim 13 , wherein the information on the RLF is transmitted by a sidelink UE information message.

15. The first UE of claim 13 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to:

receive, from the base station, configuration information for performing the communication with the second UE, and

perform the communication with the second UE, based on the configuration information.

16. The first UE of claim 15 , wherein the configuration information comprises at least one of a timer or a retransmission period.

17. The first UE of claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to identify the condition to be satisfied, in case that a maximum retransmission number of data according to the communication with the second UE is identified to be reached by a radio link control (RLC) entity of the first UE.

18. The first UE of claim 10 ,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to receive, from the base station, an RRC message including sidelink resource information, and

wherein the RRC message includes at least one of an RRC connection reconfiguration message or an RRC resume message.
