Abstract

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for transmitting and receiving characteristic information of a GNSS subframe. A method for transmitting and receiving characteristic information of a GNSS subframe, as a method for a first device, may comprise: receiving a subframe including first information, which is characteristic information of the subframe, from a second device; checking a format of the subframe on the basis of the first information; and determining whether to decode data included in the subframe on the basis of the checked format of the subframe.

Claims (32)

1. A method for a first device, the method comprising operations of:

receiving a subframe including first information, which is characteristic information of the subframe, from a second device;

checking the characteristic information of the subframe on the basis of the first information; and

determining whether to decode data included in the subframe on the basis of the checked characteristic information of the subframe,

wherein the first information is indicated by a sync word included in the subframe, and when a mapping relationship between the first information and the subframe number of the subframe is preset, the subframe number of the subframe is checked based on the sync word.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, when it is determined to perform decoding of the data, an operation of performing a decoding operation of the data on the basis of coding rate information used for channel coding of the data indicated by the first information.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising operations of, before the operation of determining whether to decode data;

determining whether to receive data included in the subframe on the basis of the first information; and

operating in a sleep mode for a preset time when it is determined not to receive the data included in the subframe.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein when a mapping relationship between the first information and the accuracy of the subframe is preset, the accuracy of the subframe is checked based on the sync word, and the accuracy is the accuracy of navigation information indicated by the data included in the subframe.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein when a mapping relationship between the first information and whether or not channel coding of the subframe is used is preset, whether or not the channel coding of the subframe is used is checked based on the sync word.

6. A method for a first device, the method comprising operations of:

receiving a subframe including first information, which is characteristic information of the subframe, from a second device;

checking the characteristic information of the subframe on the basis of the first information; and

determining whether to decode data included in the subframe on the basis of the checked characteristic information of the subframe,

wherein when the subframe includes a sync word, a subframe characteristic indicator, and the data, the first information is indicated by the subframe characteristic indicator.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein when a mapping relationship between the first information and each of the subframe number and the accuracy of the subframe is preset, each of the subframe number and the accuracy of the subframe is checked based on the subframe characteristic indicator, and the accuracy is the accuracy of navigation information indicated by the data included in the subframe.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein when a mapping relationship between the first information and the accuracy of the subframe is preset, the accuracy of the subframe is checked based on the subframe characteristic indicator.

9. A first device comprising:

a processor;

a memory configured to electronically communicate with the processor; and

instructions stored in the memory,

wherein when the instructions are executed by the processor, the instructions cause the first device to:

receive a subframe including first information, which is characteristic information of the subframe, from a second device;

check the characteristic information of the subframe on the basis of the first information; ands

determine whether to decode data included in the subframe on the basis of the characteristic information of the subframe,

wherein the first information is indicated by a sync word included in the subframe, and when a mapping relationship between the first information and the subframe number of the subframe is preset, the subframe number of the subframe is checked based on the sync word.

10. A first device comprising at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor causes the first device to perform:

receive a subframe including first information, which is characteristic information of the subframe, from a second device;

check the characteristic information of the subframe on the basis of the first information; and

determine whether to decode data included in the subframe on the basis of the characteristic information of the subframe,

wherein when the subframe includes a sync word, a subframe characteristic indicator, and the data, the first information is indicated by the subframe characteristic indicator.
