Method and apparatus for resource request in wireless communication system
The present disclosure relates to resource request in wireless communications. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a first wireless device configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the method comprises: receiving, from a network, one or more sidelink grants; creating a data unit based on the one or more sidelink grants; performing a transmission of the data unit to a second wireless device by using the one or more sidelink grants; transmitting, to the network via a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), a resource request for a retransmission of the data unit based on a quality of service (QoS) requirement of the data unit; receiving, from the network, one or more sidelink grants for the retransmission of the data unit; and performing the retransmission of the data unit to the second wireless device by using the one or more sidelink grants for the retransmission of the data unit.
1. A method performed by a first device configured to operate in a communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a network, one or more first grants for transmission to a second device;
creating a data unit for transmission to the second device;
performing a first transmission of the data unit to the second device by based on the one or more first grants;
after identifying that no acknowledgement for the first transmission is received from the second device, determining whether to transmit, to the network via a resource for uplink control channel, a resource request for a second transmission of the data unit based on a required delay of the data unit, wherein the second transmission is a retransmission for the first transmission;
transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit based on the resource for uplink control channel being within a threshold time earlier than the required delay from the first transmission;
receiving, from the network, one or more second grants for transmission to the second device; and
performing the second transmission of the data unit to the second device based on the one or more second grants.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the resource request comprises transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit based on a negative acknowledgement for a most recent transmission of the data unit being received within a threshold time earlier than the required delay from the first transmission.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the resource request comprises transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit based on a distance between the first device and the second device is shorter than or equal to a required communication range.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the resource request comprises transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit based on at least one of a congestion level or a priority of the data unit.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the transmitting of the resource request comprises:
measuring a channel busy ratio (CBR) on resources for transmission to the second device; and
based on the CBR being below or equal to a threshold related to the priority of the data unit, transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first transmission is related to a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process, and wherein the resource request comprises at least one of a HARQ process identity (ID) of the HARQ process, a requested size of a resource for the retransmission of the data unit, or a requested number of retransmissions of the data unit.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the second device, an acknowledgement for the second transmission; and
performing a transmission of another data unit to the second device based on remaining grants among the one or more second grants after the second transmission is performed.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: receiving, from the second device, an acknowledgement for the second transmission; and
releasing remaining grants among the one or more second grants after the second transmission is performed.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the device is in communication with at least one of a user equipment, a network, or autonomous vehicles other than the device.
10. A device in a communication system comprising:
a transceiver;
a memory; and
at least one processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the memory stores instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a network, one or more first grants for transmission to a second device;
creating a data unit for transmission to the second device;
performing a first transmission of the data unit to the second device based on the one or more first grants;
after identifying that no acknowledgement for the first transmission is received from the second device, determining whether to transmit, to the network via a resource for uplink control channel, a resource request for a second transmission of the data unit based on a required delay of the data unit, wherein the second transmission is a retransmission for the first transmission;
transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit based on the resource for uplink control channel being within a threshold time earlier than the required delay from the first transmission;
receiving, from the network, one or more second grants for transmission to the second device; and
performing the second transmission of the data unit to the second device based on the one or more second grants.
11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program for performing each step of a method on a computer, the method comprising:
receiving, from a network, one or more first grants for transmission to a second device;
creating a data unit for transmission to the second device;
performing a first transmission of the data unit to the second device based on the one or more first grants;
after identifying that no acknowledgement for the first transmission is received from the second device, determining whether to transmit, to the network via a resource for uplink control channel, a resource request for a second transmission of the data unit based on a required delay of the data unit, wherein the second transmission is a retransmission for the first transmission;
transmitting, to the network via the resource for uplink control channel, the resource request for the second transmission of the data unit based on the resource for uplink control channel being within a threshold time earlier than the required delay from the first transmission;
receiving, from the network, one or more second grants for transmission to the second device; and
performing the second transmission of the data unit to the second device based on the one or more second grants.
