Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
       [0001]    The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transmitting a synchronization signal for device-to-device communication. 
       BACKGROUND ART 
       [0002]    In order to meet wireless data traffic demands that have increased after 4th Generation (4G) communication system commercialization, efforts to develop an improved 5G communication system or a pre-5G communication system have been made. For this reason, the 5G communication system or the pre-5G communication system is called a beyond 4G network communication system or a post LTE system. 
         [0003]    In order to achieve a high data rate, an implementation of the 5G communication system in a mmWave band (for example, 60 GHz band) is being considered. In the 5G communication system, technologies such as beamforming, massive Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO), Full Dimensional MIMO (FD-MIMO), array antenna, analog beam-forming, and large scale antenna are discussed to mitigate a propagation path loss in the mmWave band and increase propagation transmission distance. 
         [0004]    Further, the 5G communication system has developed technologies such as an evolved small cell, an advanced small cell, a cloud Radio Access Network (RAN), an ultra-dense network, Device to Device communication (D2D), a wireless backhaul, a moving network, cooperative communication, Coordinated Multi-Points (CoMP), and a method for receiving interference cancellation to improve the system network. 
         [0005]    In addition, the 5G system has developed Advanced Coding Modulation (ACM) schemes such as Hybrid FSK and QAM Modulation (FQAM) and Sliding Window Superposition Coding (SWSC), and advanced access technologies such as Filter Bank Multi Carrier (FBMC), Non Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA), and Sparse Code Multiple Access (SCMA). 
         [0006]    Meanwhile, the Internet has been evolved to the Internet of Things (IoT) network that exchanges and processes information between distributed components such as objects and the like in a human-oriented connection network in which humans generate and consume information. An Internet of Everything (IoE) technology may be an example of a combination of an IoT technology and a big data processing technology through a connection with a cloud server. 
         [0007]    In order to implement the IoT, research is being conducted on technical factors such as a sensing technique, wired/wireless communication and network infrastructure, service interface technology, and security technology, and thus technologies such as a sensor network, Machine to Machine (M2M), Machine Type Communication (MTC), and the like are required for a connection between objects. 
         [0008]    In an IoT environment, through collection and analysis of data generated in connected objects, an intelligent Internet Technology (IT) service to create a new value for people&#39;s lives may be provided. The IoT may be applied to fields, such as a smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, smart grid, health care, smart home appliance, or high-tech medical service, through the convergence and combination of the conventional Information Technology (IT) and various industries. 
         [0009]    Accordingly, various attempts to apply the 5G communication to the IoT network are made. For example, 5G communication technologies such as a sensor network, Internet of Things, MTC, etc. are implemented by techniques such as beamforming, MIMO, and array antenna. The application of a cloud RAN as the big data processing technology previously described may be an example of convergence of the 5G technology and the IoT technology. 
         [0010]    Recently, due to the supply of smart phones, data traffic has been rapidly increased. A report of the Korea Communications Commission (KCC) shows that mobile data traffic has increased three times over the past year due to the accelerating supply of smart phones. The number of users of smart phones will further increase and application services through the smart phones will become further activated. Accordingly, mobile data traffic is expected to increase much more than now. Particularly, when Machine to Machine (M2M) communication such as communication between a person and a machine and communication between machines that corresponds to a new mobile market beyond communication between people is activated, traffic transmitted to an evolved NodeB (eNB) is expected to increase beyond that which can be handled. 
         [0011]    Therefore, a technology capable of solving these problems is required. Recently, Device to Device direct communication technology has attracted attention. This technology, called ‘Device to Device (D2D) communication’, has been attracting attention in both licensed bands used by cellular mobile communication and unlicensed bands used by WLAN communication. 
         [0012]    When the D2D communication is converged with the cellular mobile communication, it is worthy of notice in that traffic capacity of the eNB increases and overload of the eNB decreases. In other words, when terminals (or User Equipments (UEs)) in the same cell or cells adjacent to each other directly exchange data over a D2D link without passing through a base station (for example, an evolved NodeB (eNB)) after setting up the D2D link between the UEs, two links (that is, a link from a UE to an eNB and a link from the eNB to another UE) may be reduced to one link (that is, a link between the UE and the other UE) so as to contribute to the resource efficiency. 
         [0013]    Research on the unlicensed bands aims to prevent the unnecessary waste of wireless resources by recognizing the requests for communication between people, communication between people and machines, and communication between machines, and to appropriately provide a service by determining the traffic that occurs locally. Therefore, the research is focused on a method of efficiently operating a process of broadcasting information on a service or a content to the surroundings and receiving the service and content by a plurality of devices. 
       DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     Technical Problem 
       [0014]    In order to perform D2D communication, a process of setting up synchronization between devices is required. A device may set up synchronization between devices using time information received through a synchronous eNB or a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver module. According to a method for setting up, by a device, synchronization between devices using time information received through a synchronous eNB or a GPS receiver module, the device is required to access the synchronous eNB or the GPS receiver module. 
         [0015]    However, according to a communication scheme provided by a communication service provider, the device may not support the synchronous eNB, so that it may not set up synchronization using the time information received through the synchronous eNB. In addition, when the device is located in a GPS shadow area (for example, an area between skyscrapers, a tunnel area, an interior of a building, and the like), the device may not set up its synchronization since it cannot receive time information from the GPS. As such, the device may not even initiate the D2D communication when its access to the synchronous eNB or GPS receiver module is not smooth. 
         [0016]    Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for transmitting a synchronization signal required for D2D communication. 
         [0017]    In addition, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for controlling transmission power for a synchronization signal required for D2D communication

The method includes: receiving, by a first UE, a D2D synchronization signal (D2DSS) and a physical D2D synchronization channel (PD2DSCH) corresponding to the D2DSS from a second UE, and transmitting the D2DSS to the second UE according to a method pre-arranged with the second UE so as to indicate that the first UE has successfully received the D2DSS or the PD2DSCH. 
         [0019]    In addition, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a method for transmitting a synchronization signal for device-to-device (D2D) communication is provided.

         [0020]    In addition, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus for transmitting a synchronization signal for device-to-device (D2D) communication is provided. The apparatus includes: a transceiver unit configured to receive, from another UE, a D2D synchronization signal (D2DSS) and a physical D2D synchronization channel (PD2DSCH) corresponding to the D2DSS, and transmit the D2DSS to the other UE according to a method pre-arranged with the other UE so as to indicate that the D2DSS or the PD2DSCH has been successfully received; and a controller configured to control an operation of the transceiver unit.

     MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION 
       [0028]    Hereinafter, various embodiments will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the same elements will be designated by the same reference numerals although they are shown in different drawings. Further, detailed descriptions of known functions and configurations which may make the subject matter of the present invention unclear will be omitted. Hereinafter, it should be noted that only the descriptions will be provided that may help understanding the operations provided in association with the various embodiments of the present invention, and other descriptions will be omitted to avoid making the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear. 
         [0029]    In the detailed description of the present invention, an example of interpretable meanings of some terms used in the present specification is proposed. However, it is noted that the terms are not limited to the examples of the construable meanings which are proposed below. 
         [0030]    The base station is a subject communicating with a terminal, and may be referred to as a BS, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS), a NodeB (NB), eNodB (eNB), an Access Point (AP) or the like. 
         [0031]    The user equipment is a subject communicating with the BS, and may be referred to as a UE, a device, a Mobile Station (MS), a Mobile Equipment (ME), a terminal and the like. 
         [0032]    A UE performing D2D communication may be divided into a synchronization transmission UE and a synchronization reception UE according to the role thereof. The synchronization transmission UE (also referred to as synchronization source) is a terminal which may transmit a D2D Synchronization Signal (D2DSS), a Physical D2D Synchronous Channel (PD2DSCH), a Physical D2D Broadcast Channel (PD2DBCH), or D2D System Information Channel (D2D SICH) and includes a synchronization reference UE and a synchronization relaying UE. In some cases, the “base station” for transmitting a D2D synchronization signal may be treated as the “synchronization reference UE”. A synchronization reception UE (which may be referred to as D2DUE) is a terminal for receiving a synchronization signal or a synchronization channel. 
         [0033]    The synchronization signal means a signal that includes a synchronization sequence which can be used to identify a cluster or a synchronization transmission UE, and a synchronization signal resource means a resource used to transmit the synchronization signal. The synchronization channel means a channel including a synchronization-related message, or a system-related message, and a synchronization channel resource means a resource for transmitting the synchronization channel. The synchronization transmission UE may transmit a synchronization signal or a synchronization channel. Hereinafter, for convenience, except for a case of being strictly separated from each other, it should be noted that a synchronization signal can be described as a concept including both the synchronization signal and the synchronization channel. 
         [0034]    As previously described, in order to perform the D2D communication, synchronization between terminals has to be performed, and to this end, some or all terminals participating in the D2D communication have to transmit the D2DSS signal. In addition, for the D2D communication, information should be exchanged between terminals, and a part of the information may be transmitted through the D2DSS. Information that is not included in D2DSS may be transmitted through the D2DSCH or D2DBCH. 
         [0035]    Information transmitted through the D2DSS or D2DSCH/D2DBCH is as follows: 
         [0036]    The identifier (Identity; ID) of a synchronization transmission UE for transmitting a synchronization signal 
         [0037]    The type of a synchronization transmission UE for transmitting a synchronization signal: a base station or an in-coverage UE which is connected to the base station or can communicate with the base station or an out-of-coverage UE which is not connected to the base station and cannot communicate with the base station, etc. 
         [0038]    The number of hops of a synchronization signal and a maximum number of hops of the synchronization signal 
         [0039]    The accuracy of a synchronization signal 
         [0040]    The effective time of a synchronization signal, a time scheduled for resetting the synchronization signal, and duration of the synchronization signal 
         [0041]    Resource information for D2D communication 
         [0042]    A system bandwidth for D2D communication 
         [0043]    PD2DBCH period and offset 
         [0044]    Time Division Duplexing (TDD) and Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD) related configuration information 
         [0045]    A maximum transmission power of a UE and power control information of the UE 
         [0046]    Information notification of expected changes in synchronization 
         [0047]    A reception quality threshold value of a synchronization signal 
         [0048]    On the other hand, a UE may match synchronization with a UE which has transmitted a D2DSS by detecting a time point at which the D2DSS is received. The D2DSS can be designed by using several sequences such as a Zadoff-Chu sequence or m sequence. In addition, the D2DSS also may be configured as one type, and may be configured as two types of a Primary D2DSS (PD2DSS) and a Secondary D2DSS (SD2DSS). For example, the PD2DSS can be designed similarly to a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) of the 3GPP LTE system, and the SD2DSS can be designed similarly to the Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS). The PD2DSCH is configured on a channel coding basis not a sequence basis unlike the D2DSS, and may have a structure similar to a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) of a 3GPP LTE system. Therefore, in general, the D2DSS may be transmitted further than the PD2DSCH. 
         [0049]      FIG. 1  is a diagram showing the coverage of a D2DSS and a PD2DSCH. 
         [0050]    In  FIG. 1 , reference numeral  111  represents the coverage of the D2DSS, and reference numeral  112  represents the coverage of a PD2DSCH. Reference numeral  101  (UE or eNB, hereinafter referred to as synchronization transmission UE) may transmit one or both of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. When the synchronization transmission UE  101  has transmitted both the D2DSS and the PD2DSCH, as shown in  FIG. 1 , since the coverage of PD2DSCH is narrower than the coverage of D2DSS, a synchronization reception UE may successfully receive the D2DSS and fail to receive the PD2DSCH. Although it is possible to design such that the PD2DSCH can be transmitted as far as the D2DSS in order to prevent the above problem, there is a disadvantage in that the overhead of a system increases because a large amount of resources for the PD2DSCH transmission should be used. The synchronization reception UE may combine signals for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH received for several time slots in different methods and process the same. Therefore, an embodiment of the present invention proposes a method for more efficiently transmitting a D2D synchronization signal. 
         [0051]    On the other hand, in the present specification, for convenience of explanation, it is assumed that In-Coverage terminals on the boundary of In-Coverage and Out-of-Coverage transmit, for Out-of-Coverage terminals, the D2DSS or PD2DSCH, and the UE of the In-Coverage is in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle state or a RRC connected state. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. 
         [0052]    In addition, in the following description, the fact that a UE has successfully received the D2DSS indicates one or all of the following states: 
         [0053]    The sequence of the D2DSS was correctly detected by the UE. 
         [0054]    A signal quality of the D2DSS received by the UE is equal to or greater than a threshold value (X1). 
         [0055]    In addition, in the following description, the fact that a UE has successfully received the PD2DSCH indicates one or all of the following states: 
         [0056]    Information included in the PD2DSCH is correctly acquired by the UE. 
         [0057]    A signal quality of the PD2DSCH received by the UE is equal to or greater than a threshold value (X2). 
         [0058]    A synchronization signal transmission method according to an embodiment of the present invention may include the following six steps. In addition, all of the following steps are not necessarily successively performed in order to set up synchronization, and the order of the steps may be changed or some steps may be omitted depending on circumstances. 
         [0059]    Step 1: After receiving the D2DSS by a reception UE, making a report, to a transmission UE, on whether the D2DSS has been successfully received 
         [0060]    Step 2: After receiving the D2DSS by the reception UE, making a report, to a transmission UE, on whether the PD2DSCH corresponding to the D2DSS has been successfully received 
         [0061]    Step 3: Making a report to a base station on whether the transmission UE has successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH 
         [0062]    Step 4: Controlling the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH depending on whether the transmission UE has successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH 
         [0063]    Step 5: Setting the transmission power of the D2DSS by the reception UE according to transmission power information included in the PD2DSCH 
         [0064]    Step 6: Stopping the transmission of the D2DSS or PD2DSCH by the transmission UE 
         [0065]    Hereinafter, a detailed method for the above steps 1 to 6 will be described. 
         [0066]    Step 1: After Receiving a D2DSS by a Reception UE, Making a Report, to a Transmission UE, on Whether the D2DSS has been Successfully Received 
         [0067]      FIG. 2  is a diagram for explaining a method by which a reception UE notifies the transmission UE of whether a reception UE has been successfully received a D2DSS according to an embodiment of the present invention. 
         [0068]    Referring to  FIG. 2 , a UE 1   201 , located in the coverage, transmits the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. Reference numeral  211  represents the coverage of the transmitted D2DSS, and reference numeral  212  represents the coverage of the transmitted PD2DSCH. A UE 2   221  is located in an area in which the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmitted by the UE 1   201  can be received, and notifies the UE 1   201  that the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201  has been received, by transmitting the D2DSS after receiving the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 . In order for the UE 2   221  to notify whether the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201  has been successfully received, resources that can be used at the time of transmitting the D2DSS can be predefined. 
         [0069]      FIGS. 3 and 4  are diagrams for explaining resources that can be used, by a reception UE, at the time of transmitting the D2DSS in order to notify of whether the D2DSS has been successfully received. 
         [0070]    Referring to  FIG. 3 , when the UE 1   201  periodically transmits the D2DSS by using resources  301 ,  302 ,  303 , and  304 , resources which are used by the UE 2   221  in order to notify of whether the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201  has been successfully received can be defined by reference numerals  311 ,  312 ,  313 , and  314 . In addition, resources  321 ,  322 ,  323 , and  324  may be defined as resources used by other reception UEs in order to notify of whether the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201  has been successfully received. For example, in  FIG. 3 , resources  321 ,  322 ,  323 , and  324  may be defined as resources for the D2DSS transmission by a UE 3   222 . 
         [0071]    In addition, the sequence of a D2DSS transmitted by the UE 2   221  may be related to the sequence of the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 . For example, the sequence of the D2DSS may be divided into a plurality of sets, and when the UE 1   201  selects one sequence within one set among a plurality of sets and transmits the D2DSS, the UE 2   221  may select other sequences within a set to which the sequence selected by the UE 1   201  belongs and transmit the D2DSS. Accordingly, the UE 1   201  may check whether the sequence transmitted by the UE 2   221  is the sequence within the same set as the sequence transmitted by the UE 1   201  so as to determine whether it is a response for the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 . In this case, the UE 1   201  and UE 2   221  may transmit the D2DSS at predetermined time intervals during a predetermined time using a specified resource. 
         [0072]    On the other hand, since the UE 3   222  is also located in the D2DSS coverage of the UE 1   201 , it may receive the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 , and accordingly the UE 3   222  may transmit the D2DSS according to the same procedure as the UE 2   221  in order to notify that the UE 3  itself has successfully received the D2DSS. 
         [0073]    A UE 4   223  is located outside the D2DSS coverage of the UE 1   201 , and accordingly it may not receive the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 . Thus, the UE 4   223  does not transmit the D2DSS. 
         [0074]    For a predetermined time T 1  after transmitting the D2DSS, the UE 1   201  monitors whether the D2DSS is received by other UEs in response to the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1  itself. When the D2DSS is not received during a time T 1 , the UE 1   201  may stop the transmission of D2DSS. At this time, the UE 1   201  may be in an additional standby state for a predetermined time T 2  and stop the D2DSS transmission. In addition, the UE 1   201  may also stop the transmission of PD2DSCH. 
         [0075]    In addition, in  FIG. 3 , when the UE 2   221  transmits the D2DSS in response to the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 , the UE 3   222  may receive the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 2   221  if the UE 3   222  is located in-coverage of the D2DSS of the UE 2   221 . The UE 3   222  which has received the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 2   221  may recognize that the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 2   221  is a response to the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 , and may not transmit the D2DSS in response to the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 . 
         [0076]    In addition, although  FIG. 2  illustrates a case where the UE 1   201  transmits both the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, the D2DSS may be transmitted by the UE 1   201  and the PD2DSCH corresponding thereto may be transmitted by another UE. 
         [0077]    Step  2 : After Receiving the D2DSS by the Reception UE, Making a Report, to a Transmission UE, on Whether the PD2DSCH Corresponding to the D2DSS has been Successfully Received 
         [0078]    In  FIG. 2 , the UE 2   221  and UE 3   222 , which have successfully received the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 , perform a monitoring operation in order to receive the PD2DSCH corresponding to the D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201 . The UE 2   221  may successfully receive the PD2DSCH because it is located within the PD2DSCH coverage  212  of the UE 1   201 , and the UE 3   222  may not successfully receive the PD2DSCH because it is located outside the PD2DSCH coverage  212  of the UE 1   201 . In addition, since the UE 4   223  is located outside the D2DSS coverage  211  of the UE 1   201 , it may not receive the D2DSS and accordingly not monitor the PD2DSCH. 
         [0079]    UEs which have received the D2DSS are required to report, to UEs which have transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, on whether the PD2DSCH corresponding to the D2DSS received by the UEs themselves has been successfully received. Since information required by out-of-coverage UEs may be included in the PD2DSCH, it is important that the UE, which has transmitted the PD2DSCH, checks whether the PD2DSCH has been successfully transmitted to the UEs. 
         [0080]    In an embodiment of the present invention, a method by which a UE, which has received the PD2DSCH, notifies a UE, which has transmitted the PD2DSCH, of whether the PD2DSCH has been successfully received includes a method for using a signal transmitted by the UE, which has received the PD2DSCH, a method for using a sequence of the D2DSS, and a method for using resources by which the D2DSS is transmitted. These methods, sequences, and resources may be agreed upon between a UE and a base station in advance. 
         [0081]    First, according to the method for using a signal transmitted by the UE, which has received the PD2DSCH, only the D2DSS is transmitted when only the D2DSS is received by the UE, there is no signal to be transmitted when only the PD2DSCH is received, and both the D2DSS and PD2DSCH are transmitted when both the D2DSS and the PD2DSCH are received. The UE, which has transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, may determine that the corresponding UE has failed to receive the PD2DSCH when the D2DSS only is received from another UE, and determine that the corresponding UE has successfully received the PD2DSCH when both the D2DSS and the PD2DSCH are received from the other UE. 
         [0082]    Next, a description will be given for a method of using a sequence of D2DSS. 
         [0083]    The sequence of D2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201  in  FIG. 2  includes two types of sequences. One type of sequence includes information indicating that the reception UE may not receive the PD2DSCH, and the other type of sequence includes information indicating that the reception UE has received the PD2DSCH. For example, when there are a total of 10 sequences from 1 to 10, five sequence sets, which are grouped by two sequences, may be configured as follows. 
         [0084]    A sequence set: (1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6), (7, 8), and (9, 10) 
         [0085]    A small number among two sequences in the sequence set may indicate a reception failure for the PD2DSCH, and a large number may indicate a successful reception of the PD2DSCH. 
         [0086]    The UE 1   201  may transmit the D2DSS using a sequence belonging to one of the five sets. After receiving the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, the UE 2   221  may transmit the D2DSS using a sequence within the same sequence set as the sequence set used by the UE 1   201  for the transmission of D2DSS. For example, when the UE 1   201  uses the sequence set (1, 2), the UE 2   221  may notify of the successful reception of the PD2DSCH by transmitting the D2DSS using a sequence  2 , which is a large number in the set, after successfully receiving the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. In the above example, the UE 1   201  may also use a sequence other than the five sets. The sequence used by the UE 1   201  and the sequence set (1, 2) are related in advance so as to correspond to each other. 
         [0087]    When the D2DSS includes PD2DSS and SD2DSS, the UE 1   201  may notify of whether the PD2DSCH has been successfully received, by selecting a combination of sequences of the PD2DSS and SD2DSS. That is, when the UE 1   201  transmits the PD2DSS, SD2DSS, and PD2DSCH, the UE 2   221  receives the PD2DSS and SD2DSS and performs a monitoring operation in order to receive the PD2DSCH corresponding thereto. A combination of the sequence of the PD2DSS and SD2DSS transmitted by the UE 1   201  with the sequence to be used by the UE 2   221  for the transmission of the PD2DSS and SD2DSS may be divided into a combination of sequences including information indicating that the reception of the PD2DSCH has failed and a combination of sequences including information indicating that the reception of the PD2DSCH has succeed. Thus, when the PD2DSS and SD2DSS are received and the PD2DSCH corresponding thereto has been successfully received, the UE 2   221  may select a combination of sequences including information indicating the reception success and transmit the PD2DSS and SD2DSS, and when the PD2DSS has not been successfully received, UE 2   221  may select a combination of sequences including information indicating the reception failure and transmit the PD2DSS and SD2DSS. At this time, the PD2DSS and SD2DSS may be transmitted using the same sequence or may be transmitted using different sequences. 
         [0088]    For example, when there are a total of 12 sequences from 1 to 12, three sequence sets, which are groups of four sequences in order, may be configured as follows. 
         [0089]    A sequence set: (1, 2, 3, 4), (5, 6, 7, 8), and (9, 10, 11, 12) 
         [0090]    Two small numbers of four sequences in the sequence set may indicate a reception failure for the PD2DSCH, and two large numbers may indicate a successful reception for the PD2DSCH. 
         [0091]    The UE 1   201  may transmit the PD2DSS and SD2DSS using a sequence belonging to one of the three sets. After receiving the PD2DSS, SD2DSS, and PD2DSCH, the UE 2   221  may transmit the PD2DSS and SD2DSS using a sequence within the same sequence set as the sequence set used by the UE 1   201  for the transmission of the PD2DSS and D2DSS. For example, when the UE 1   201  uses the sequence set (1, 2, 3, 4), the UE 2   221  may notify of the successful reception of the PD2DSCH by transmitting the PD2DSS and SD2DSS using sequence numbers 3 and 4, which are large numbers in the set, after successfully receiving the PD2DSS, SD2DSS, and PD2DSCH. 
         [0092]    Next, a description will be given for a method of using resources for transmitting the D2DSS. 
         [0093]    Referring to  FIGS. 2 and 3 , resources used when the UE 2   221  transmits the D2DSS, in response to the D2DSS  301 ,  302 ,  303 , and  304  transmitted by the UE 1   201 , may be divided into two groups. That is, in  FIG. 3 , one group includes information indicating that the UE 2   221  may not receive the PD2DSCH when the UE 2   221  transmits the D2DSS through the resources  311 ,  312 ,  313 , and  314 , and the other group includes information indicating that the UE 2   221  has successfully received the PD2DSCH when the UE 2   221  transmits the D2DSS through the resources  321 ,  322 ,  323 , and  324 . The resources divided into two groups may be allocated for the periodic transmission of D2DSS for a predetermined time. 
         [0094]    When the D2DSS includes the PD2DSS and SD2DSS, the UE 2   221  may notify of whether the PD2DSCH has been successfully received, by selecting resources of the PD2DSS and SD2DSS. That is, when the UE 1   201  transmits the PD2DSS, SD2DSS, and PD2DSCH, the UE 2   221  receives the PD2DSS and SD2DSS and performs a monitoring operation in order to receive the PD2DSCH corresponding thereto. Referring to  FIG. 4 , resources used when the PD2DSS and SD2DSS are transmitted by the UE 2   221 , in response to PD2DSS  401 ,  402 , and  403  and SD2DSS  411 ,  412 , and  413  transmitted by the UE 1   201 , may be divided into two groups. That is, in  FIG. 4 , one group includes information indicating that the UE 2   221  may not receive the PD2DSCH when the UE 2   221  transmits the PD2DSS through resources  421 ,  422 , and  423 , and the other group includes information indicating that the UE 2   221  has successfully received the PD2DSCH when the UE 2   221  transmits the PD2DSS through resources  441 ,  442 , and  443 , and transmits the SD2DSS through resources  451 ,  452 , and  453 . The resources divided into two groups may be allocated for the periodic transmission of D2DSS for a predetermined time. 
         [0095]    In addition, another method for notifying of whether the PD2DSCH has been successfully received, by using resources, may include a method for notifying of the same through a relative positional relationship between resources of the PD2DSS and SD2DSS. For example, when the UE 2 , which has received the PD2DSS and SD2DSS from the UE 1   201 , may not receive the PD2DSCH, the UE 2  may notify that the PD2DSCH has not been successfully received by itself, by transmitting the SD2DSS by using a resource which is separated by a distance K 1  from a resource by which the PD2DSS is transmitted. In addition, when the UE 2 , which has received the PD2DSS and SD2DSS from the UE 1   201 , has successfully received the PD2DSCH, the UE 2  may notify that the PD2DSCH has been successfully received by itself, by transmitting the SD2DSS by using a resource which is separated by a distance K 2  (k 1  # K 2 ) from a resource by which the PD2DSS is transmitted. 
         [0096]    Step 3: Making a Report to a Base Station on Whether the Transmission UE has Successfully Transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH 
         [0097]    As described in step 1 and step 2, the UE 1  may transmit the D2DSS and PD2DSCH and receive the signal indicating whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully received, and then determine whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmitted by UE 1  itself have been successfully transmitted, on the basis of the signal received from the UE 2 , and report a result of the determination to the base station. The base station may execute a command for increasing or decreasing the transmission power of the UE 1  according to a report on whether the UE 1  has successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. The report on whether the UE 1  has successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH and the transmission power control for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to the command by the base station may be simultaneously performed by the D2DSS and PD2DSCH or may be performed separately according to whether each of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted. In the following description, for convenience, a case will be described where the report on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted and the transmission power control according to the command by the base station are simultaneously performed. 
         [0098]    A method for reporting, by the UE 1 , whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, to the base station, is as follows. 
         [0099]    When the UE 1  is in an RRC CONNECTED state, that is, the UE 1  is in a state of monitoring a control channel, transmitting and receiving data to and from the base station through a data channel, and reporting various measurement results by the base station and a neighboring base station in order to help scheduling of the base station, the UE 1  may report, to the base station, on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, using N bit Uplink Control Information (UCI). In this case, the UCI may be transmitted using a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) or a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH). When a plurality of resources, by which the PUCCH or the PUSCH may be transmitted, are allocated, the PUCCH or PUSCH may be transmitted by selecting one of the resources so that the UE 1  may indirectly report, to the base station, on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted. Alternatively, the UE 1  may load, on an N bit Media Access Control(MAC) Payload, information on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, and then report the same to the base station by using the PUSCH. 
         [0100]    When the UE 1  is in an RRC IDLE state, that is, the UE 1  is in the state of selecting a base station (or cell), monitoring a paging channel, and acquiring system information (SI), but the UE 1  is not in the state of transmitting and receiving data to and from the base station, the base station may switch the UE 1  to the RRC CONNECTED state, and then the UE 1  may report, to the base station, on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, through the method described above. 
         [0101]    Furthermore, the UE 1  may notify the base station of whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, by performing a random access procedure. For example, when selecting a sequence for transmitting a random access preamble, the UE 1  may select a predefined sequence so as to report, to the base station, on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted. In addition, the UE 1  may transmit the random access preamble and receive a random access response from the base station, and then may include, in a message to be transmitted to the base station by using the PUSCH, information on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, and transmit the same. 
         [0102]    The base station which has received, from the UE 1 , the report on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted may command the UE 1  to adjust the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. 
         [0103]    The UE 1  transmits the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and PD2DSCH. When the UE 2  has successfully received the D2DSS but has failed to receive the PD2DSCH, the UE 1  notifies of PD2DSCH reception failure to the UE 1 , according to the method mentioned above. Then, the UE 1  reports to the base station the fact that the UE 2  has received the D2DSS but has failed to receive the PD2DSCH, and the base station commands the UE 1  to increase the transmission power of the PD2DSCH. In this case, the UE 1  may also increase the transmission power of D2DSS. The UE 1  increases the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to a command from the base station and transmits the same. 
         [0104]    When the base station commands the UE 1  to increase the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, and if the UE 1  is in the RRC CONNECTED state, the base station may transmit the command for increasing the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH by including the same in the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). For example, the base station may command the UE 1  to increase the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmission power by using the N bit information field of Downlink Control Information (DCI) of the PDCCH, and when receiving the PDCCH including a command for increasing transmission power, the UE 1  may increase the transmission power by a predetermined value or increase the transmission power according to a predetermined power control equation. 
         [0105]    In addition, when the base station commands the UE 1  to increase the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, and if the UE 1  is in the RRC CONNECTED state, the base station may transmit a Medium Access Control (MAC) message for increasing the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH using the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). Specifically, the base station may command the UE 1  to increase the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmission power by using the N bit MAC Payload, and when receiving the PDCCH including a command for increasing the transmission power, the UE 1  may increase the transmission power by a predetermined value or increase the transmission power according to a predetermined power control equation. 
         [0106]    When the UE 1  is in the RRC IDLE state, the base station may switch the UE 1  to the RRC CONNECTED state, and command the UE 1  to increase the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH through the above-described method. In addition, the base station may command the UE 1  to increase the PD2DSCH transmission power by transmitting the N bit through a paging channel, and when receiving a paging channel including an N bit indicating a command for increasing transmission power, the UE 1  may increase the transmission power by a predetermined value or increase the transmission power according to a predetermined power control equation. 
         [0107]    Although the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH using the maximum power according to the transmission power increasing command, when the UE 1  has not successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH (that is, UE 1  has not received, from the UE 2 , a report on the reception success for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, or received a report on the reception failure thereof), the UE 1  may transmit a transmission failure report to the base station, and the base station may command other UEs to transmit the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. In this case, the base station may select a UE(s) to which the command for transmitting the D2DSS and PD2DSCH is to be executed, where the UE(s) is UE(s) located closer to the UE  2  than the UE 1 . In addition, the base station may command the UE 1  to stop the transmission of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. 
         [0108]    In addition, although the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and PD2DSCH a predetermined maximum transmission number of times, and if the report of reception success for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH is not received from the UE 2 , the UE 1  may report to the base station that the PD2DSCH transmission has failed. Then, the base station may command other UE(s) other than the UE 1  to transmit the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. In this case, the base station may select a UE(s) to which the command for transmitting the D2DSS and PD2DSCH is to be executed, where the UE(s) is UE(s) located closer to the UE  2  than the UE 1 . In addition, the base station may command the UE 1  to stop the transmission of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. At this time, ‘one’, which is the number of transmission times for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH may be defined such that the UE 1  transmits the corresponding synchronization signal by N number of times. Alternatively, the transmission number of times of ‘one’ may be defined such that the UE 1  transmits the D2DSS and PD2DSCH for T seconds by using available D2DSS and PD2DSCH resources. 
         [0109]    On the other hand, when the transmission success report has been received from the UE 1 , the base station may command the UE 2 , which has received the D2DSS and PD2DSCH of the UE 1 , to stop the transmission of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH. 
         [0110]      FIG. 5  is a diagram illustrating a procedure for reporting, to a base station, on whether a transmission UE has successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to an embodiment of the present invention. 
         [0111]    Referring to  FIG. 5 , the UE 1  transmits the D2DSS and PD2DSCH (indicated by reference numerals  501  and  502 ). The UE 2  receives both the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmitted by the UE 1 , and transmits the D2DSS (and PD2DSCH) to the UE 1  according to the method described in steps  1  and  2  (indicated by reference numerals  511  and  512 ). Since a UE 3  has received the D2DSS but has not received the PD2DSCH, the D2DSS only is transmitted by the UE 3  (indicated by reference numeral  521 ). 
         [0112]    The UE 1 , which has received the D2DSS (and PD2DSCH) from the UE 2 , determines that the PD2DSCH transmitted by the UE 1  itself is successfully transmitted, and report the same to the base station (indicated by reference numeral  513 ). In addition, the UE 1 , which has received the D2DSS from the UE 3 , determines that the PD2DSCH transmitted by the UE 1  itself was not successfully transmitted, and reports the same to the base station (indicated by reference numeral  513 ). Then, the base station transmits, to the UE 1 , a command for increasing or decreasing the transmission power for the (D2DSS and) PD2DSCH according to the report by the UE 1  (indicated by reference numeral  532 ), and accordingly, the UE 1  increases or decreases the transmission power for the (D2DSS and) PD2DSCH. 
         [0113]    On the other hand, although the PD2DSCH is transmitted the maximum transmission number of times or transmitted using the maximum transmission power but the transmission of the PD2DSCH has failed, the UE 1  reports the same to the base station (indicated by reference numeral  541 ), and the base station commands a UE 4  to transmit the D2DSS and PD2DSCH (indicated by reference numeral  542 ). At this time, the base station may command the UE 1  to stop the transmission of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH (indicated by reference numeral  543 ). The UE  4 , which has received the transmission command, transmits the D2DSS and PD2DSCH (indicated by reference numeral  551  and  552 ), and the UE 3 , which has received the same, transmits the D2DSS (and PD2DSCH) to the UE  4  according to the method described in steps 1 and 2 (indicated by reference numerals  561  and  562 ). 
         [0114]    Step 4: Controlling the Transmission Power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH Depending on Whether the Transmission UE has Successfully Transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH 
         [0115]    In step 3, an example has been described where the base station commands the UE 1  to adjust the transmission power of PD2DSCH depending on whether D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted, however, the UE 1  may determine whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted depending on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been received by the UE 2 , and adjust the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH based on the result thereof. The transmission power control for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to the determination of the UE 1  itself may be applied equally to both the D2DSS and the PD2DSCH, and may be applied separately according to whether each of the D2DSS and the PD2DSCH has been successfully transmitted. 
         [0116]    That is, when the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and PD2DSCH, and then the UE 2 , which has received the D2DSS of the UE 1 , has not received the PD2DSCH, the UE 2  may notify of a PD2DSCH reception failure to the UE 1  according to the method mentioned above. The UE 1  increases the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH and then retransmits the same. The transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH may be determined in Equation 1 as follows. 
         [0000]      (Transmission power of PD2DSCH)=Min {(Maximum transmission power of PD2DSH), (Initial transmission power of PD2DSCH)+(Transmission number of times −1)*(Amount of increased transmission power of PD2DSCH)}
 
         [0000]      (Transmission power of D2DSS)=Min {(Maximum transmission power of D2DSS), (Initial transmission power of D2DSS)+(Transmission number of times −1)*(Amount of increased transmission power of D2DSS)}  [Equation 1]
 
         [0117]    In addition, when the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and then the UE 2 , which has received the D2DSS of the UE 1 , has not received the D2DSS, the UE 2  notify of a D2DSS reception failure to the UE 1  according to the method mentioned above. Then, the UE 1  increases the transmission power of the D2DSS according to the equation (1) and retransmit the same. 
         [0118]    When the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH using the maximum transmission power, but has failed to transmit the PD2DSCH, or when the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH the maximum transmission number of times, but has failed to transmit the PD2DSCH, the UE 1  may report a PD2DSCH transmission failure to the base station as described above. 
         [0119]    In addition, when the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and PD2DSCH and then the UE 2 , which has received the D2DSS of the UE 1 , has also received the PD2DSCH, the UE 2  may notify of a PD2DSCH reception success to the UE 1  according to the method mentioned above. Then, the UE 1  decreases the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH and then retransmits the same. The transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH may be determined in Equation  2  as follows. 
         [0000]      (Transmission power of PD2DSCH)=Max {(Minimum transmission power of PD2DSH), (Initial transmission power of PD2DSCH)−(Transmission number of times −1)*(Amount of decreased transmission power of PD2DSCH)}
 
         [0000]      (Transmission power of D2DSS)=Max {(Minimum transmission power of D2DSS), (Initial transmission power of D2DSS)−(Transmission number of times −1)*(Amount of decreased transmission power of D2DSS)}  [Equation 2]
 
         [0120]    In addition, when the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and then the UE 2 , which has received the D2DSS of the UE 1 , has successfully received the D2DSS, the UE 2  may notify of a D2DSS reception success to the UE 1  according to the method mentioned above. Then, the UE 1  decreases the transmission power of the D2DSS according to the equation (1) and retransmits the same. 
         [0121]    When an initial transmission power is set to low, the equation (1) may be used, and when the initial transmission power is set to high, the equation (2) maybe used. The UE 1  may determine an optimal transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH through the method as described above. 
         [0122]      FIG. 6  is a diagram illustrating a process for adjusting the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH depending on whether a transmission UE has successfully transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to an embodiment of the present invention. 
         [0123]    Referring to  FIG. 6 , the UE transmits the D2DSS and PD2DSCH (indicated by reference numeral  601 ), and checks whether the report on the reception success of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH has been received (indicated by reference numeral  603 ). When the report on the reception success for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH is not received from another UE, the UE checks whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been transmitted using the maximum transmission power (indicated by reference numeral  605 ), and if they have not been transmitted using the maximum transmission power, the UE checks whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been transmitted the maximum transmission number of times (indicated by reference numeral  607 ). When the D2DSS and PD2DSCH are not transmitted the maximum transmission number of times, the UE increases the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to equation (1) (indicated by reference numeral  609 ) and retransmits the D2DSS and PD2DSCH ( 601 ). On the other hand, when the reception success report on the D2DSS and PD2DSCH has been received from the other UE, when the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been transmitted using the maximum transmission power, and when the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been transmitted the maximum transmission number of times, the UE reports a transmission result of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH to the base station ( 611 ). 
         [0124]    In addition, when the initial transmission power is set to high, the transmission power through transmission UE may gradually reduce a process similar to  FIG. 6 , upon receipt of the report on the reception success of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, from another UE. 
         [0125]    Step 5: Setting the Transmission Power of the D2DSS by the Reception UE According to Transmission Power Information Included in the PD2DSCH 
         [0126]    As previously described, the PD2DSCH may include transmission power information of the D2DSS (or PD2DSS and SD2DSS) and transmission power information of the PD2DSCH. Thus, the UE 2 , which has successfully received the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmitted by the UE 1 , may acquire the transmission power information of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH from the PD2DSCH. In addition, the UE 2 , which has successfully received the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmitted by the UE 1 , may estimate a path loss value between the UE 1  and the UE 2  based on the signal quality of the received D2DSS and PD2DSCH. Furthermore, the UE 2  may use the estimated path loss value for the D2DSS and PD2DSCH transmission. That is, the UE 2  sets the D2DSS transmission power and transmits the D2DSS by using the set transmission power in consideration of the estimated path loss value and a required Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) required for the reception of the D2DSS. Similarly, the UE 2  sets the transmission power of PD2DSCH and transmits the PD2DSCH by using the set transmission power in consideration of the estimated path loss value and the required SNR required for the reception of the PD2DSCH. 
         [0127]    Step 6: Stopping the Transmission of the D2DSS or PD2DSCH by the Transmission UE 
         [0128]    As described above, when the UE 1  has transmitted the D2DSS and PD2DSCH and has received a report from the UE 2  that the PD2DSCH was successfully received, the UE 1  may stop the transmission of PD2DSCH. At this time, the D2DSS transmission may also be stopped. 
         [0129]      FIG. 7  is a simplified diagram showing a device configuration of a base station and UE according to an embodiment of the present invention. 
         [0130]    Referring to  FIG. 7 , a base station  700  includes a transceiver unit  701  and a controller  703 . The transceiver unit  701  may transmit and receive a signal to and from a UE, receive, from the UE, a report on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH are successfully transmitted, and transmit, to the UE, a command for adjusting the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH according to an embodiment of the present invention. The controller  703  may control an overall operation of the transceiver unit  701 . The UE 1   710  may also include a transceiver unit  711  and a controller  713 . The transceiver unit  711  may transmit and receive a signal to and from the base station  700  or a UE 2   720 , transmit and receive the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, and transmit, to the base station, a report on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted according to an embodiment of the present invention. The transceiver unit  711  may also receive a command for adjusting the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH from the base station. The controller  713  may control an overall operation of the transceiver unit  711 . In addition, the controller  713  may set and adjust the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH as described in a transceiver steps 4 and 5. Similarly, the UE 1   720  may also include a transceiver unit  721  and a controller  723 . The transceiver unit  721  may transmit and receive a signal to and from the base station  700  or the UE 1   710 , transmit and receive the D2DSS and PD2DSCH, and transmit, to the UE, a report on whether the D2DSS and PD2DSCH have been successfully transmitted according to an embodiment of the present invention. In addition, the transceiver unit  721  may also receive a command for adjusting the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH from the base station. The controller  723  may control an overall operation of the transceiver unit  721 . In addition, the controller  713  may set and adjust the transmission power of the D2DSS and PD2DSCH as described in steps  4  and  5 .
