Abstract:
Disclosed is device-to-device communication based on a cellular communication network. A method of operating a terminal capable of supporting D2D (device to device) communication based on a cellular communication network may include: determining whether to perform central control D2D communication or distributed control D2D communication; and performing the distributed control D2D communication, or requesting a setting for the central control D2D communication to a base station on the basis of the determination. With the D2D communication based on the cellular communication network, the cellular communication, the central control D2D communication, or the distributed control D2D communication may flexibly and selectively operate in the cellular network.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting a grant-free uplink data channel (physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)) (GF-PUSCH), performed in a terminal, includes determining a resource (GF-PUSCH resource) for transmission of the GF-PUSCH and an identifier (DM-RS ID) of a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) included in the GF-PUSCH; when an uplink traffic arrives, encoding the uplink traffic into a transport block (TB); generating the DM-RS based on the DM-RS ID, and transmitting the GF-PUSCH including the TB and the DM-RS to a base station through the GF-PUSCH resource; and receiving, from the base station, a group hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information in which ACK or negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information for the GF-PUSCH of the terminal and ACK/NACK information for at least one GF-PUSCH of at least one other terminal are multiplexed, through a downlink control information (DCI).
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for transmitting radio frequency signals. In the method according to the present invention, a plurality of antenna groups may be arranged for achieving array gain and multiplexing gain at the same time, and the plurality of antenna groups are located far from each other so that they have no correlation, and antennas of the same group are located adjacent to each other so that they have correlation. Accordingly, system capacity as well as capacity of data channel and control channel may be significantly increased through mitigation of inter-cell interference and enhancement of cell edge performance.
