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 for providing a service in a first device in a vehicle to everything (V2X) communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting a first message related to the service; receiving, from a second device, a second message notifying that the second device enters a zone related to the service; and transmitting, to the second device, a third message indicating that the first device confirms that the second device enters the zone.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for providing a service related to pedestrian safety in a radio communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting, by a road side unit (RSU), a first message indicating that a pedestrian light is on;
receiving, by the RSU, from a vehicle terminal that has received the first message, a second message notifying that the vehicle terminal is located in a zone related to the service; and
transmitting, to the vehicle terminal, a third message instructing the vehicle terminal to broadcast a warning for the pedestrian safety.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the third message further includes instruction that the vehicle terminal to transmit a fourth message notifying that the vehicle terminal is in the zone to a pedestrian terminal.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the third message is transmitted, if the second message is received from the vehicle terminal firstly.

4. A method for providing a service related to pedestrian safety in a radio communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a vehicle terminal, from a road side unit (RSU), a first message indicating that a pedestrian light is on;
transmitting, by the vehicle terminal, to the RSU, a second message notifying that the vehicle terminal is located in a first zone related to the service; and
receiving, from the RSU, a third message instructing the vehicle terminal to broadcast a warning for the pedestrian safety.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the third message further includes information instruction that the vehicle terminal to transmit a fourth message notifying that the vehicle terminal is in the first zone to a pedestrian terminal.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the third message is transmitted, if the second message is received from the vehicle terminal firstly.

7. A method of claim 5 , further comprising:
transmitting the fourth message to a pedestrian terminal if the third message indicates that the vehicle terminal needs to transmit the fourth message.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein transmitting the fourth message to the pedestrian terminal comprises transmitting the fourth message to the pedestrian terminal based on a transmission beam selected for the pedestrian terminal.

9. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
identifying a second zone related to the service upon satisfying a preset criterion; and
transmitting, to a pedestrian terminal, a fifth message notifying that the vehicle terminal exists in the second zone.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the second zone is a part of the first zone.

11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising receiving, from the pedestrian terminal, a sixth message notifying that the pedestrian terminal has received the third message.

12. A method for providing a service related to pedestrian safety in a radio communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a pedestrian terminal, from a road side unit (RSU), a first message indicating that a pedestrian light is on;
receiving, by the pedestrian terminal, from a vehicle terminal, a second message notifying that the vehicle terminal is in a first zone related to the service; and
running a safety service application for generating a warning.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the vehicle terminal transmits the second message, if the vehicle terminal firstly transmits a third message notifying that the vehicle terminal is in the first zone.

14. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
receiving, from the vehicle terminal, a fourth message notifying that a second zone related to the service exists.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the fourth message is transmitted based on a transmission beam selected for the pedestrian terminal.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the second zone is a part of the first zone.

17. The method of claim 14 , further comprising:
transmitting, to the vehicle terminal, a fourth message notifying that the pedestrian terminal exists.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:
outputting a warning by the safety service application.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second message comprises at least one of:
identification information of the vehicle terminal;
identification information of the RSU;
location information of the vehicle terminal; and
speed information of the vehicle terminal.

20. The method of claim 4 , wherein the second message comprises at least one of:
identification information of the vehicle terminal;
identification information of the RSU;
location information of the vehicle terminal; and
speed information of the vehicle terminal.

21. A road side unit (RSU) for providing a service related to pedestrian safety in a radio communication system, the RSU comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller configured to:
transmit, a first message indicating that a pedestrian light is on;
receive, from a vehicle terminal that has received the first message, a second message notifying that the vehicle terminal is located in a zone related to the service; and
transmit, to the vehicle terminal, a third message instructing the vehicle terminal to broadcast a warning for the pedestrian safety.

22. A vehicle terminal for providing a service related to pedestrian safety in a radio communication system, the vehicle terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller configured to:
receive, from a road side unit (RSU), a first message indicating that a pedestrian light is on;
transmit, to the RSU, a second message notifying that the vehicle terminal is located in a first zone related to the service; and
receive, from the RSU, a third message instructing the vehicle terminal to broadcast a warning for the pedestrian safety.

23. A pedestrian terminal for providing a service related to pedestrian safety in a radio communication system, the pedestrian terminal comprising:
a transceiver; and
a controller configured to:
receive, from a road side unit (RSU), a first message indicating that a pedestrian light is on;
receive, from a vehicle terminal, a second message notifying that the vehicle terminal is in a first zone related to the service, and
run a safety service application for generating a warning.
