Abstract
In the communication control method according to the present embodiment, a user terminal transmits a scheduling assignment indicating the location of a radio resource used in a reception of communication data by direct device-to-device communication. The user terminal transmits the communication data including initial transmission data and retransmission data by using the radio resource. The retransmission data is transmitted depending on the number of times of re-transmissions associated with a predetermined scheduling assignment by using a predetermined radio resource of which the location is indicated by the predetermined scheduling assignment.
Claims3
A communication control method, comprising:
- receiving, by a first user terminal, second communication data transmitted from a second user terminal by direct communication;
- deciding, by the first user terminal, a first number of times of retransmission, which is a number of times for transmission of retransmission data that is the same as an initial transmission data, on the basis of a comparison between a reception success rate of the second communication data and a threshold value;
- transmitting, by the first user terminal, a scheduling assignment indicating a location of a radio resource used in a reception of first communication data transmitted by the first user terminal by the direct communication;
- and
- transmitting, by the first user terminal, the first communication data including the initial transmission data and the retransmission data based on the first number of times of retransmission by using the radio resource, wherein
- the second communication data transmitted from the second user terminal includes initial transmission data and retransmission data transmitted from the second user terminal,
- in deciding the first number of times of retransmission, when the reception success rate of the second communication data is below the threshold value, the first user terminal decides a value larger than a second number of times of retransmission of the retransmission data transmitted from the second user terminal as the first number of times of retransmission, and
- in transmitting the first communication data, the user terminal transmits a new data identifier (NDI) with the retransmission data.
A first user terminal, comprising:
- a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute processes of:
- receiving second communication data transmitted from a second user terminal by direct communication;
- deciding a first number of times of retransmission, which is a number of times for transmission of retransmission data that is the same as an initial transmission data, on the basis of a comparison between a reception success rate of the second communication data and a threshold value;
- transmitting a scheduling assignment indicating a location of a radio resource used in a reception of first communication data transmitted by the first user terminal by the direct communication, and
- transmitting the first communication data including the initial transmission data and the retransmission data based on the first number of times of retransmission by using the radio resource, wherein
- the second communication data transmitted from the second user terminal includes initial transmission data and retransmission data transmitted from the second user terminal,
- in deciding the first number of times of retransmission, when the reception success rate of the second communication data is below the threshold value, the processor decides a value larger than a second number of times of retransmission of the retransmission data transmitted from the second user terminal as the first number of times of retransmission, and
- in transmitting the first communication data, the processor transmits a new data identifier (NDI) with the retransmission data.
