Abstract

A method, performed by a user equipment (UE), in a wireless communication system includes: obtaining sidelink logical channel configuration information corresponding to a logical channel and including a sidelink logical channel priority (sl-priority) parameter; selecting a destination associated with one of unicast, groupcast, and broadcast, based on the sidelink logical channel configuration information and sl-priority configured for each of at least one logical channel including sidelink data available for transmission; allocating sidelink resources to at least one logical channel corresponding to the destination based on the sl-priority configured for each of the at least one logical channel corresponding to the destination; multiplexing sidelink data included in the at least one logical channel corresponding to the destination to a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU); and transmitting the MAC PDU to another UE using the sidelink resources.

Claims (36)

1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

obtaining configuration information on at least one sidelink resource pool, wherein the configuration information includes information on whether a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) is configured for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool;

in case that a sidelink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback is enabled, identifying any sidelink resource pool configured with the PSFCH, among the at least one sidelink resource pool; and

transmitting sidelink data on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) based on the identified sidelink resource pool,

wherein the configuration information further includes information on a communication range requirement for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sidelink resource pool is configured per sidelink bandwidth part (BWP).

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information is obtained based on a dedicated radio resource control (RRC) signaling for the terminal.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information is obtained based on a system information block (SIB).

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information is obtained based on pre-configuration parameters of the terminal.

6. A method performed by a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

generating configuration information on at least one sidelink resource pool, wherein the configuration information includes information on whether a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) is configured for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool; and

transmitting the generated configuration information,

wherein in case that a sidelink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback is enabled in a terminal which receives the configuration information, any sidelink resource pool configured with the PSFCH is used for sidelink data transmission on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), among the at least one sidelink resource pool, and

wherein the configuration information further includes information on a communication range requirement for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the at least one sidelink resource pool is configured per sidelink bandwidth part (BWP).

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the configuration information is transmitted based on a dedicated radio resource control (RRC) signaling for the terminal or a system information block (SIB).

9. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

obtain configuration information on at least one sidelink resource pool, wherein the configuration information includes information on whether a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) is configured for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool,

in case that a sidelink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback is enabled, identify any sidelink resource pool configured with the PSFCH, among the at least one sidelink resource pool, and

transmit, via the transceiver, sidelink data on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) based on the identified sidelink resource pool,

wherein the configuration information further includes information on a communication range requirement for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool.

10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the at least one sidelink resource pool is configured per sidelink bandwidth part (BWP).

11. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the configuration information is obtained based on a dedicated radio resource control (RRC) signaling for the terminal.

12. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the configuration information is obtained based on a system information block (SIB).

13. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the configuration information is obtained based on pre-configuration parameters of the terminal.

14. A base station in a wireless communication system, the base station comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

generate configuration information on at least one sidelink resource pool, wherein the configuration information includes information on whether a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) is configured for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool, and

transmit, via the transceiver, the generated configuration information,

wherein in case that a sidelink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback is enabled in a terminal which receives the configuration information, any sidelink resource pool configured with the PSFCH is used for sidelink data transmission on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), among the at least one sidelink resource pool, and

wherein the configuration information further includes information on a communication range requirement for each of the at least one sidelink resource pool.

15. The base station of claim 14 , wherein the at least one sidelink resource pool is configured per sidelink bandwidth part (BWP).

16. The base station of claim 14 , wherein the configuration information is transmitted based on a dedicated radio resource control (RRC) signaling for the terminal or a system information block (SIB).
