Abstract

A method of operating a transmitting user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system includes establishing a link with a Rx UE by the Tx UE, and transmitting an RRC message based on sidelink radio link failure (RLF) to a base station (BS) by the Tx UE. The RRC message is related to reporting of the sidelink RLF to the BS, and includes a destination identifier (ID) related to the sidelink RLF.

Claims (34)

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

receiving, by the TX UE from a base station (BS), multiple SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling) configurations;

establishing, by the Tx UE, a link with a Rx UE;

declaring, by the Tx UE, a sidelink radio link failure (RLF); and

transmitting, by the Tx UE to a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the sidelink RLF,

wherein the RRC message is related to reporting of the sidelink RLF to the BS,

wherein the RRC message includes a destination identifier (ID) related to the sidelink RLF and SPS configuration index to be released due to the RLF among the multiple the SPS configurations, and

wherein, after declaring of sidelink RLF, a transmission of a sidelink buffer status report (BSR) is not performed.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the destination ID is related to transmission resource allocation of the BS.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the Tx UE does not transmit a transmission resource request related to the destination ID any longer after transmitting the RRC message.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the sidelink RLF is based on retransmission occurrences of a maximum retransmission number.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the sidelink RLF is based on reception of an OUT OF SYNC indication a predetermined number of or more times.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the destination ID is generated by a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) layer of the Tx UE.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the RRC message is transmitted, when a latency budget of data transmission in service is larger than a delay until transmission resources are allocated by the BS.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the Tx UE communicates with at least one of another UE, a UE related to autonomous driving vehicle, a BS, or a network.

9. A Tx user equipment (UE) configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the Tx UE comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor and storing instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations,

wherein the operations include receiving multiple SPS configurations from a base station (BS), establishing a link with a Rx UE, declaring, by the Tx UE, a sidelink radio link failure (RLF), and transmitting, to a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the sidelink RLF,

wherein the RRC message is related to reporting of the sidelink RLF to the BS,

wherein the RRC message includes a destination identifier (ID) related to the sidelink RLF and SPS configuration index to be released due to the RLF among the multiple the SPS configurations, and

wherein, after declaring of sidelink RLF, a transmission of a sidelink buffer status report (BSR) is not performed.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing at least one computer program including instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations for a Tx user equipment (UE),

wherein the operations include receiving multiple SPS configurations from a base station (BS), establishing a link with a Rx UE, declaring, by the Tx UE, a sidelink radio link failure (RLF), and transmitting, to a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the sidelink RLF,

wherein the RRC message is related to reporting of the sidelink RLF to the BS,

wherein the RRC message includes a destination identifier (ID) related to the sidelink RLF and SPS configuration index to be released due to the RLF among the multiple the SPS configurations, and

wherein, after declaring of sidelink RLF, a transmission of a sidelink buffer status report (BSR) is not performed.

11. A base station (BS) configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operatively coupled to the at least one processor and storing instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations,

wherein the operations include receiving multiple SPS configurations from a base station (BS), receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message based on sidelink radio link failure (RLF) from a Tx user equipment (UE),

wherein the RRC message is related to reporting of the sidelink RLF to the BS,

wherein the RRC message includes a destination identifier (ID) related to the sidelink RLF and SPS configuration index to be released due to the RLF among the multiple the SPS configurations, and

wherein, after declaring of the sidelink RLF that is declared by the TX UE, a transmission of a sidelink buffer status report (BSR) is not performed by the Tx UE.
