Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-generation (4G) communication system such as a long term evolution (LTE). A method and apparatus for performing a relay communication are provided. A remote user equipment (UE) according to the present disclosure is configured to acquire a first parameter related to relay load from each of a plurality of relay candidate UEs, to select a relay UE which will perform a relay communication with the remote UE from among the plurality of relay candidate UEs based on the first parameter acquired from each of the plurality of relay candidate UEs, and to perform the relay communication with the selected relay UE. The first parameter is generated based on cellular communication load between a base station (BS) connected to a corresponding relay candidate UE and the corresponding relay candidate UE.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for traffic safety are provided using vehicle driving-related information obtained on the basis of a transmission/reception beam pair of a road side unit (RSU) and a vehicle on-board unit (OBU), thereby reducing a probability that vehicle collisions occur where visual fields may be obscured. The method includes setting a path from a current location of the electronic device to a destination, and transmitting a message indicating an emergency situation to other devices located on the path while moving to the destination. The method further includes determining a transmission/reception beam pair of the electronic device and a road apparatus, using a reference signal received from the road apparatus, transmitting a signal including information for the transmission/reception beam pair to the road apparatus, and receiving, from the road apparatus, a message warning that the electronic device and another neighboring electronic device are approaching each other.

A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving data in a communication system are disclosed and relate to 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system that will be provided to support a higher data transmission rate after the 4G communication system, such as long term evolution (LTE). A method for transmitting data by a transmitting device in a wireless communication system that supports device-to-device (D2D) communication, may include separating, from a piece of video container data, video data and video-related data that is output together with the video data, outputting the video data, and transmitting the video-related data to a receiving device.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing a state transition for Device to Device (D2D) communication are provided. The method includes determining whether D2D initiation is required, while a terminal is operating in a first or a second state defined by EPS (Enhanced Packet System) Mobility Management (EMM)-Deregistered and EPS Connection Management (ECM)-IDLE at a Non-Access Stratum (NAS) layer and Radio Resource Control (RRC)-IDLE. If the D2D initiation is required, the method includes transitioning to a third state defined by EMM-Registered and ECM/RRC-Connected and performing the D2D initiation through a mobile communication network. If a deactivation condition is satisfied or a D2D state update is completed in the third state, the method includes transitioning to a fourth state defined by EMM-Registered and ECM/RRC-IDLE, and if a state update or scheduling for D2D communication is required in the fourth state, the method includes transitioning to the third state.
