User equipment (UE) for performing flexible scheduling for inter-terminal direct communication
A user equipment includes a control unit that controls transmission or reception of a sidelink signal in which a first resource and a second resource are multiplexed in a same slot, wherein at least one of SLSS (Sidelink synchronization signal) or PSBCH (Physical Sidelink Broadcast Channel) is allocated in the first resource, and at least one of PSCCH (Physical Sidelink Control Channel), PSSCH (Physical Sidelink Shared Channel), and PSDCH (Physical Sidelink Discovery Channel) is allocated in the second resource; a reception unit that monitors the first resource, the second resource, or the first resource and the second resource; and a transmission unit that performs transmission using any one of the first resource, the second resource, and the first resource and the second resource.
1. A terminal comprising:
a processor that time-division multiplexes a first synchronization signal for inter-terminal direct communication, a second synchronization signal for the inter-terminal direct communication, and a broadcast channel for the inter-terminal direct communication; and
a transmitter that transmits, to another terminal, the first synchronization signal, the second synchronization signal, and the broadcast channel,
wherein the processor allocates the second synchronization signal to a symbol adjacent to a symbol to which the first synchronization signal is allocated, and
wherein, in a symbol in which the broadcast channel is allocated, the processor frequency-division multiplexes the broadcast channel and a demodulation reference signal.
2. The terminal according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor sets, on a per transmission occasion of a synchronization signal for the inter-terminal direct communication basis, a number of times of transmitting a synchronization signal block for the inter-terminal direct communication, the synchronization signal block being formed of the first synchronization signal, the second synchronization signal, and the broadcast channel, and
wherein the transmitter transmits, to the another terminal, the first synchronization signal, the second synchronization signal, and the broadcast channel, based on the number of times of transmitting the synchronization signal block.
3. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the processor allocates one synchronization signal block per one slot.
4. A communication method executed by a terminal, the method comprising:
time-division multiplexing a first synchronization signal for inter-terminal direct communication, a second synchronization signal for the inter-terminal direct communication, and a broadcast channel for the inter-terminal direct communication; and
transmitting, to another terminal, the first synchronization signal, the second synchronization signal, and the broadcast channel,
wherein the transmitting allocates the second synchronization signal to a symbol adjacent to a symbol to which the first synchronization signal is allocated, and
wherein, in a symbol in which the broadcast channel is allocated, the terminal frequency-division multiplexes the broadcast channel and a demodulation reference signal.
