Apparatus and method for supporting one-to-one communication service in wireless communication system
A method, performed by a first user equipment (UE), of performing unicast communication includes transmitting a direct communication request message, generating a profile for a PC5 unicast link, receiving, from a second UE, a response message based on a result of establishment of the PC5 unicast link; and transmitting, to the second UE, a data message over the PC5 unicast link based on the response message, wherein the profile includes at least one of a Layer-2 identifier (ID) of the first UE, an application layer ID of the first UE, a Layer-2 ID of the second UE, an application layer ID of the second UE, PC5 5 th generation (5G) Quality of Service (QoS) Indicator (PQI), or PC5 QoS Flow identifier (PFI) associated with the PQI.
1. A method for performing unicast communication by a first user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
transmitting a request message for establishing a PC5 unicast link, the request message including information about a PC5 Quality of Service (QoS) Flow;
receiving, from a second UE, a response message for establishing the PC5 unicast link, the response message including including a corresponding information about the PC5 QoS Flow requested by the first UE; and
transmitting, to the second UE, a data over the PC5 unicast link by using a profile for the PC5 unicast link,
wherein the information about PC5 QoS Flow includes a PC5 QoS Flow Identifier (PFI) and a PC5 5 th generation (5G) QoS Indicator (PQI), and
wherein the profile includes at least one of: a Layer-2 identifier (ID) of the first UE, an application layer ID of the first UE, a Layer-2 ID of the second UE, an application layer ID of the second UE, a PC5 5G QoS Indicator (PQI), or a PC5 QoS Flow Identifier (PFI) associated with the PQI.
2. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the Layer-2 ID of the second UE is used for initial signaling to establish the PC5 unicast link, and
wherein a destination Layer-2 ID of the request message is the Layer-2 ID of the second UE.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the destination Layer-2 ID is same or different for Vehicle to Everything (V2X) service types.
4. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the PFI is assigned in a Vehicle to Everything (V2X) layer of the first UE, and
wherein the V2X layer of the first UE provides at least one of the data, the PFI, or the PQI to an Access Stratum (AS) layer of the first UE.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising indicating, from a Vehicle to Everything (V2X) layer to an Access Stratum (AS) layer, whether the request message or the response message is for signaling.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising changing at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising updating the profile based on an update of a link layer identifier or a result of the changing of at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
8. A first user equipment (UE) for performing unicast communication, the first UE comprising:
a transceiver; and
at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:
transmit a request message for establishing a PC5 unicast link, the request message including information about a PC5 Quality of Service (QoS) Flow;
receive, from a second UE, a response message for establishing a PC5 unicast link, the response message including a corresponding information about the PC5 QoS Flow requested by the first UE; and
transmit, to the second UE, a data over the PC5 unicast link by using a profile for the PC5 unicast link,
wherein the information about PC5 QoS Flow includes a PC5 QoS Flow Identifier (PFI) and a PC5 5th generation (5G) QoS Indicator (PQI), and
wherein the profile includes at least one of: a Layer-2 identifier (ID) of the first UE, an application layer ID of the first UE, a Layer-2 ID of the second UE, an application layer ID of the second UE, a PC5 5G QoS Indicator (PQI), or a PC5 QoS Flow Identifier (PFI) associated with the PQI.
9. The first UE of claim 8 ,
wherein the Layer-2 ID of the second UE is used for initial signaling to establish the PC5 unicast link, and
wherein a destination Layer-2 ID of the request message is the Layer-2 ID of the second UE.
10. The first UE of claim 9 , wherein the destination Layer-2 ID is same or different for Vehicle to Everything (V2X) service types.
11. The first UE of claim 8 ,
wherein the PFI is assigned in a Vehicle to Everything (V2X) layer of the first UE, and
wherein the V2X layer of the first UE provides at least one of the data, the PFI, or the PQI to an Access Stratum (AS) layer of the first UE.
12. The first UE of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to indicate, from a Vehicle to Everything (V2X) layer to an Access Stratum (AS) layer, whether the request message or the response message is for signaling.
13. The first UE of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to change at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
14. The first UE of claim 13 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to update the profile based on an update of a link layer identifier or a result of the changing of at least one of: the Layer-2 ID of the first UE, the Layer-2 ID of the second UE, the application layer ID of the first UE, or the application layer ID of the second UE.
