Abstract
This communication device comprises: a control circuit that allocates a signal to a guard section that is set to an Nth time resource, among the Nth time resource and an N+1th time resource that are included in a plurality of time resources, when a plurality of contiguous time resources are allocated in terminal-to-terminal communication in an unlicensed band; and a transmission circuit that transmits the signal in the plurality of time resources.
Claims16
A communication apparatus, comprising:
- control circuitry, which, in operation, in a case where a plurality of time resources consecutive in time are allocated in terminal-to-terminal communication in an unlicensed band, assigns a signal to a guard interval included in the plurality of time resources;
- and
- transmission circuitry, which, in operation, transmits the signal with the plurality of time resources.
A communication method, comprising:
- assigning, by a communication apparatus, in a case where a plurality of time resources consecutive in time are allocated in terminal-to-terminal communication in an unlicensed band, a signal to a guard interval included in the plurality of time resources;
- and
- transmitting, by the communication apparatus, the signal with the plurality of time resources.
An integrated circuit, comprising:
- control circuitry, which, in operation, in a case where a plurality of time resources consecutive in time are allocated in terminal-to-terminal communication in an unlicensed band, assigns a signal to a guard interval included in the plurality of time resources;
- and
- transmission circuitry, which, in operation, transmits the signal with the plurality of time resources.
