Abstract

Disclosed are: a communication technique for merging, with IoT technology, a 5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G system; and a system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied to intelligent services (for example, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smartcars or connected cars, healthcare, digital education, small businesses, security- and safety-related services, and the like) on the basis of 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. A method of a terminal in a communication system, according to one embodiment of the disclosure, can comprise the steps of: receiving, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) associated with sidelink transmission; confirming a preparation time associated with the sidelink transmission; and performing the sidelink transmission on the basis of the DCI if a first timing associated with the sidelink transmission determined on the basis of the DCI is after the preparation time from a second timing associated with the DCI reception.

Claims (29)

1. A method of a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including downlink control information (DCI) for a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and associated physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH);

identifying a value T proc,s associated with a PSSCH preparation time N s ; and

transmitting the PSSCH and associated PSCCH in case that a first symbol of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH is no earlier than a symbol, wherein the symbol is defined based on the T proc,s after a last symbol of the PDCCH including the DCI.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PSSCH preparation time N s is based on a subcarrier spacing, and wherein the subcarrier spacing corresponds to one of a first subcarrier spacing of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH or a second subcarrier spacing of the PDCCH including the DCI.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PSSCH preparation time N s is based on the subcarrier spacing, and wherein the subcarrier spacing corresponds to one of the first subcarrier spacing or the second subcarrier spacing resulting with the largest T proc,s .

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the PSSCH preparation time N s is 10 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 15 kHz, 12 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 30 kHz, 23 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 60 kHz, and 36 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 120 kHz.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is ignored in case that the first symbol of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH is earlier than the symbol defined based on the T proc,s after the last symbol of the PDCCH including the DCI.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI is for scheduling a sidelink resource or for activating a configured grant (CG) sidelink resource.

7. A terminal in a communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

receive, from a base station, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including downlink control information (DCI) for a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and associated physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH),

identify a value T proc,s associated with a PSSCH preparation time N s , and

transmit the PSSCH and associated PSCCH, in case that a first symbol of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH is no earlier than a symbol, wherein the symbol is defined based on the T proc,s after a last symbol of the PDCCH including the DCI.

8. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the PSSCH preparation time N s is based on a subcarrier spacing, and wherein the subcarrier spacing corresponds to one of a first subcarrier spacing of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH, or a second subcarrier spacing of the PDCCH including the DCI.

9. The terminal of claim 8 , wherein the PSSCH preparation time N s is based on the subcarrier spacing, and wherein the subcarrier spacing corresponds to one of the first subcarrier spacing or the second subcarrier spacing resulting with the largest T proc,s .

10. The terminal of claim 9 , wherein the PSSCH preparation time N s is 10 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 15 kHz, 12 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 30 kHz, 23 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 60 kHz, and 36 in case that the subcarrier spacing is 120 kHz.

11. The terminal of claim 7 , wherein the DCI is ignored in case that the first symbol of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH is earlier than the symbol defined based on the T proc,s after the last symbol of the PDCCH including the DCI.

12. A method of a base station in a communication system, the method comprising:

generating downlink control information (DCI) for a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and associated physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH); and

transmitting, to a terminal, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including the DCI,

wherein the DCI is generated so that a first symbol of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH is no earlier than a symbol, and wherein the symbol is defined based on a value T proc,s associated with a PSSCH preparation time after a last symbol of the PDCCH including the DCI.

13. A base station in a communication system, the base station comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

generate downlink control information (DCI) for a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and associated physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), and

transmit, to a terminal, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including the DCI,

wherein the DCI is generated so that a first symbol of the PSSCH and associated PSCCH is no earlier than a symbol, and wherein the symbol is defined based on a value T proc,s associated with a PSSCH preparation time after a last symbol of the PDCCH including the DCI.
