The present disclosure generally relates to wireless communications, and specifically, to methods executed by user equipment, methods executed by base station and the corresponding user equipment.
In June 2015, at the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) RAN #68 plenary meeting, a V2X feasibility study project based on cellular network technology was approved. V2X represents ‘Vehicle to everything,’ which aims to realize the interactions between a vehicle and all physical entities that may affect the vehicle, and to reduce accidents, relieve traffic congestion, reduce environmental pollution and provide other information-related services. V2X mainly includes 4 aspects: 1. V2V, Vehicle-to-Vehicle, that is, vehicle to vehicle communications; 2. V2P, Vehicle-to-Pedestrian, that is, vehicles sending warnings to pedestrians or non-motor vehicles; 3. V2N, Vehicle-to-Network, that is, vehicles connecting to mobile network; 4. V2I, Vehicle-to-Infrastructure, that is, communications between vehicles and roads or infrastructures of the like.
3GPP separates the V2X research and standardization work into 3 stages. The first phase was completed in September 2016, mainly focusing on V2V, based on LTE Release 12 and Release 13 D2D (Device to Device, direct communications between devices, may also be referred to as sidelink), that is, the specification of adjacent communications technology. V2X Stage 1 introduces a new D2D communications interface, referred to as PC5 interface. The PC5 interface is mainly used to address the communications problems of cellular vehicle networks in high speed (up to 250 km/h) and high node density environments. Vehicles may interact with information such as position, speed, and direction via the PC5 interface, that is, vehicles may communicate directly through the PC5 interface. The second phase of V2X belongs to the LTE Release15 research category. The main features introduced include higher order 64QAM modulation, V2X carrier aggregation, short TTI, and a feasibility study of transmit diversity. At the 3GPP RAN #80 plenary meeting in June 2018, the corresponding third phase V2X feasibility study project based on 5G NR network technology (see Non-Patent Literature 1) was approved.
The NR V2X project includes design goals to support unicast, multicast, and broadcast. Unicast refers to the communications between a transmitting user equipment (UE) and a single receiving user equipment. Multicast generally represents a group of UEs that are assigned the same identifier (ID), and the UEs communicate within the group. Broadcast is widely used in scenarios such as base stations transmitting system messages to UEs in a cell in cellular communications. In Long Term Evolution (LTE) and New Radio (NR) communications, a base station and UE in communications use a form of unicast. Using the downlink data communication as an example, the data channel (e.g., a PDSCH) uses the UE specific Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI) to perform scrambling, and thereby, realizes unicast communication at the physical layer. It is noted that, in order to better reflect the quality of the downlink channel and improve transmission reliability, unicast communications usually includes Channel State Indicator (CSI) reporting and Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) retransmission mechanisms. Release 14/15 LTE V2X project currently only supports broadcast communications between UEs, that is, control information and data sent by one UE can be received by other multiple UEs and decoded correctly. For NR V2X, in order to enable unicast communications, as described above, the CSI reporting mechanism and HARQ retransmission mechanism in V2X need to be specifically designed.
Wireless channel conditions are constantly changing. In LTE and NR communications, in order to better adapt to changes in wireless channels, the UE can report downlink channel quality information to the base station via CSI, so that the base station can select a more reliable Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for the UE, and more accurate time-frequency resources. CSI represents channel state information, and is composed of Channel Quality Indicator (CQI), Precoding Matrix Indicator (PMI), and Rank Indicator (RI). The present disclosure does not specifically limit the contents included in the CSI, and uses CSI reporting as a common representation. In NR, the base station configures CSI-Reference Signal (RS) (CSI-RS) resources at the UE level via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling. The base station dynamically triggers whether the UE reports non-periodic CSI in the uplink scheduling grant sent to the UE. The UE acquires CSI information by measuring the received downlink reference signal (CRS in LTE and CSI-RS in NR), and reports the CSI to the base station based on the resources indicated by the base station. For periodic CSI reporting, the base station configures Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resources for the UE for CSI reporting; for non-periodic CSI reporting, the base station instructs the UE to use the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) resources for reporting CSI. Specifically, in 5G NR non-periodic CSI reporting, the base station indicates the non-periodic CSI reporting type triggered by the UE via the CSI request field in the uplink scheduling grant, and instructs the UE the available resources for reporting CSI via a beta offset indicator field and an Uplink Shared Channel (UL-SCH) indicator field. The base station takes into consideration the channel quality reported by the UE when performing downlink scheduling. HARQ represents hybrid automatic retransmission, which can provide error correction function and realize rapid retransmission. This is widely used in wireless data communications, which will not be repeated here.
1) The PSCCH occupies one subframe in the time domain and two consecutive Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) in the frequency domain. The initialization process of the scrambling sequence uses a predetermined value 510. The PSCCH may carry SCI format 1, including at least PSSCH time-frequency domain resource information, such as the frequency domain resource indicator field, indicating the starting sub-channel number and the number of consecutive sub-channels corresponding to the PSSCH of the PSCCH.
2) The PSSCH also occupies one subframe in the time domain, and is in the same subframe as the corresponding PSCCH frequency division multiplexing (FDM). The PSSCH is in the form of a sub-channel in the frequency domain. The sub-channel is nsubCHsize consecutive PRBs in the frequency domain. The nsubCHsize is configured by RRC parameters. The number of sub-channels is indicated by the frequency domain resource indicator field of SCI format 1.
1) Resource allocation based on base station scheduling: When scheduled-r14 is configured in SL-V2X-ConfigDedicated, it represents that the UE is configured as a transmission mode based on base station scheduling. The base station configures Sidelink V2X Radio Network Temporary Identifier (SL-V-RNTI) via RRC, and transmits an uplink scheduling grant (UL grant) to the UE via PDCCH (Downlink Control Information (DCI) format 5A). The above-disclosed uplink scheduling grant includes at least information such as a frequency domain resource indication of the PSSCH. After the UE successfully monitors the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) scrambled by the SL-V-RNTI, the UE uses the PSSCH frequency domain resource indication field in the uplink scheduling grant as the frequency domain resource scheduling information of the PSSCH in the SCI format 1.
2) Resource allocation based on UE sensing: When ue-Selected-r14 is configured in SL-V2X-ConfigDedicated, it represents that the UE is configured as a transmission mode based on UE sensing. In the above-disclosed transmission mode, the base station configures an available transmission resource pool, and the UE determines the transmission resources of the PSCCH and PSSCH in the transmission resource pool according to predetermined rules (such as Reference Signal Receiving Power (RSRP), etc.), and transmits the PSCCH and PSSCH according to the process shown in

In the present LTE V2X direct communications, only broadcast communication is supported. Broadcast is widely used in scenarios such as base stations transmitting system messages to UEs in a cell in cellular communications. Unicast refers to the communications between a transmitting user equipment (UE) and a single receiving user equipment. Multicast generally represents a group of UEs that are assigned the same ID, and the UEs communicate within the group. In LTE and NR communications, a base station and UE level communications use a form of unicast. Using the downlink data communication as an example, the data channel PDSCH uses the UE specific C-RNTI to perform scrambling, and thereby, realize unicast communication at the physical layer. It is noted that, in order to better reflect the quality of the downlink channel and improve transmission reliability, unicast communications usually includes CSI reporting and HARQ retransmission mechanisms. Release 14/15 LTE V2X project currently only supports broadcast communications between UEs, that is, control information and data sent by one UE can be received by other multiple UEs and decoded correctly. For NR V2X, in order to enable unicast communications, as described above, the CSI reporting mechanism and HARQ retransmission mechanism in V2X need to be specifically designed.
Wireless channel conditions are constantly changing. In LTE and NR communications, in order to better adapt to changes in wireless channels, the UE can report downlink channel quality information to the base station via CSI, so that the base station can select more reliable MCS for the UE, and more accurate time-frequency resources. CSI represents channel state information, and is composed of CQI, PMI, and RI. The present disclosure does not specifically limit the contents included in the CSI, and uses CSI reporting as a common representation. In NR, the base station configures CSI-RS resources at the UE level via RRC signaling. The base station dynamically triggers whether the UE reports non-periodic CSI in the uplink scheduling grant sent to the UE. The UE acquires CSI information by measuring the received downlink reference signal (CRS in LTE and CSI-RS in NR), and reports the CSI to the base station based on the resources indicated by the base station. For periodic CSI reporting, the base station configures PUCCH resources for the UE for CSI reporting; for non-periodic CSI reporting, the base station instructs the UE to use the PUSCH resources for reporting CSI. Specifically, in 5G NR non-periodic CSI reporting, the base station indicates the non-periodic CSI reporting type triggered by the UE via the CSI request field in the uplink scheduling grant, and instructs the UE the available resources for reporting CSI via a beta offset indicator field and a UL-SCH indicator field. The base station takes into consideration the channel quality reported by the UE when performing downlink scheduling. HARQ represents hybrid automatic retransmission, which can provide error correction function and realize rapid retransmission. This is widely used in wireless data communications, which will not be repeated here.
The direct communications process of the present Release 14 and LTE V2X is disclosed as follows.
1) The PSCCH occupies one subframe in the time domain and two consecutive PRBs in the frequency domain. The initialization process of the scrambling sequence uses a predetermined value 510. The PSCCH may carry SCI format 1, including at least PSSCH time-frequency domain resource information, such as the frequency domain resource indicator field, indicating the starting sub-channel number and the number of consecutive sub-channels corresponding to the PSSCH of the PSCCH.
2) The PSSCH also occupies one subframe in the time domain, and is in the same subframe as the corresponding PSCCH frequency division multiplexing (FDM). The PSSCH is in the form of a sub-channel in the frequency domain. The sub-channel is nsubCHsize consecutive PRBs in the frequency domain. The nsubCHsize is configured by RRC parameters. The number of sub-channels is indicated by the frequency domain resource indicator field of SCI format 1.
The resource allocation schemes of the direct communications process of the present Release 14 and LTE V2X is disclosed as follows.
1. Resource allocation based on base station scheduling: When scheduled-r14 is configured in RRC signaling SL-V2X-ConfigDedicated, it represents that the UE is configured as a transmission mode based on base station scheduling. The base station configures SL-V-RNTI via RRC, and transmits an uplink scheduling grant (UL grant) to the UE via PDCCH (DCI format 5A). The uplink scheduling grant includes at least information such as a frequency domain resource indication of the PSSCH. After the UE successfully monitors the PDCCH scrambled by the SL-V-RNTI, the UE uses the PSSCH frequency domain resource indication field in the uplink scheduling grant as the frequency domain resource scheduling information of the PSSCH in the SCI format 1.
2. Resource allocation based on UE sensing: When ue-Selected-r14 is configured in RRC signaling SL-V2X-ConfigDedicated, it represents that the UE is configured as a transmission mode based on UE sensing.
