Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a 5 th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate than that of a 4 th generation (4G) communication system such as long-term evolution (LTE). A method for operating a device for adaptively changing or selecting a computing structure and wireless communication protocol structure can comprise the steps of: receiving a device capability information request message of the device from a base station; determining a device capability information message indicating the computing capability and protocol capability of the device; transmitting the device capability information message to the base station; and receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message on the basis of the computing structure and protocol structure configured by the base station.

Claims (59)

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

receiving, from a base station (BS), a UE capability information request message;

determining a UE capability information message indicating a computing capability and a protocol capability of the UE;

transmitting, to the BS, the UE capability information message including a first identifier (ID) indicating a computing structure and a second ID indicating a protocol structure;

receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are configured by the BS;

determining a buffer status report medium access control-control element (BSR MAC-CE) based on the computing capability and the protocol capability of the UE;

transmitting the BSR MAC-CE to the BS;

receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal based on the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are configured by the BS; and

determining physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resources allocated by the BS,

wherein the BSR MAC-CE includes at least one of the first ID and the second ID.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the first ID is mapped to the computing structure based on a predefined standard,

wherein the second ID is mapped to the protocol structure based on a predefined standard, and

wherein the UE capability information message includes an ID list in which the first ID is mapped to the second ID.

3. A method performed by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a UE capability information request message;

receiving, from the UE, a UE capability information message including a first identifier (ID) indicating a computing structure and a second ID indicating a protocol structure;

identifying the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are supportable to the UE;

transmitting, to the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the computing structure and protocol structure;

receiving, from the UE, a buffer status report medium access control-control element (BSR MAC-CE) based on a computing capability and protocol capability of the UE;

determining the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are supportable to the UE, based on the BSR MAC-CE;

transmitting, to the UE, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal based on the computing structure and the protocol structure; and

performing allocation of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resources,

wherein the BSR MAC-CE includes at least one of the first ID and the second ID.

4. The method of claim 3 ,

wherein the first ID is mapped to the computing structure based on a predefined standard,

wherein the second ID is mapped to the protocol structure based on a predefined standard, and

wherein the UE capability information message includes an ID list in which the first ID is mapped to the second ID.

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

a transceiver; and

a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

receive, from a base station (BS), a UE capability information request message,

determine a UE capability information message indicating a computing capability and a protocol capability of the UE,

transmit, to the BS, the UE capability information message including a first identifier (ID) indicating a computing structure and a second ID indicating a protocol structure,

receive a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are configured by the BS,

determine a buffer status report medium access control-control element (BSR MAC-CE) based on the computing capability and the protocol capability of the UE, transmit the BSR MAC-CE to the BS,

receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal based on the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are configured by the BS, and

determine physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resources allocated by the BS,

wherein the BSR MAC-CE includes at least one of the first ID and the second ID.

6. The UE of claim 5 ,

wherein the first ID is mapped to the computing structure based on a predefined standard,

wherein the second ID is mapped to the protocol structure based on a predefined standard, and

wherein the UE capability information message includes an ID list in which the first ID is mapped to the second ID.

7. A base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a UE capability information request message,

receive, from the UE, a UE capability information message including a first identifier (ID) indicating a computing structure and a second ID indicating a protocol structure,

identify the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are supportable to the UE,

transmit, to the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) message based on the computing structure and protocol structure,

receive, from the UE, a buffer status report medium access control-control element (BSR MAC-CE) based on a computing capability and protocol capability of the UE,

determine the computing structure and the protocol structure, which are supportable to the UE, based on the BSR MAC-CE,

transmit, to the UE, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal based on the computing structure and the protocol structure, and

perform allocation of physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resources,

wherein the BSR MAC-CE includes at least one of the first ID and the second ID.

8. The BS of claim 7 ,

wherein the first ID is mapped to the computing structure based on a predefined standard,

wherein the second ID is mapped to the protocol structure based on a predefined standard, and

wherein the UE capability information message includes an ID list in which the first ID is mapped to the second ID.
