Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for message flooding in a wireless communication system, and is characterized in that it includes the steps of: broadcasting, by a transmission node, a flooding message to a surrounding node through a first common channel; checking, by a reception node, whether the first common channel has received the flooding message; transmitting, by the reception node, an ACK signal through a second common channel or a NACK signal through a third common channel, based on a result of the check; and determining, by the transmission node, whether the second common channel or the third common channel has detected a signal, to determine whether to re-transmit the flooding message.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for receiving a flooding message in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a first receiving node from a transmitting node, the flooding message on a first common channel;
transmitting, by the first receiving node, an ACK signal on a second common channel or a NACK signal on a third common channel based on a reception result of the flooding message;
when the first receiving node transmits the NACK signal a predetermined number of times or when the first receiving node transmits the NACK signal with more energy than a predetermined value, stopping, by the first receiving node, a transmission of the NACK signal; and
transmitting, by the first receiving node, a poll signal for requesting a retransmission of the flooding message on a fourth common channel,
wherein the poll signal is transmitted when the first receiving node has not successfully received the flooding message on the first common channel, but has detected an ACK signal transmitted by a second receiving node on the second common channel.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first common channel, the second common channel, the third common channel and the fourth common channel are included in one radio frame and are repeated for each radio frame.

3. A first receiving node for receiving a flooding message in a wireless communication system, the first receiving node comprising:
a transmitter for transmitting a radio signal;
a receiver for receiving a radio signal; and
a processor configured to control the transmitter and the receiver, wherein the processor is configured to:
receive, from a transmitting node, the flooding message on a first common channel;
transmit an ACK signal on a second common channel or a NACK signal on a third common channel based on a reception result of the flooding message;
when the NACK signal is transmitted a predetermined number of times or when the NACK signal is transmitted with more energy than a predetermined value, stop a transmission of the NACK signal; and
transmit a poll signal for requesting a retransmission of the flooding message on a fourth common channel,
wherein the poll signal is transmitted when the first receiving node has not successfully received the flooding message on the first common channel, but has detected an ACK signal transmitted by a second receiving node on the second common channel.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
when the first receiving node detects the retransmission of the flooding message,
stopping, by the first receiving node, a transmission of the poll signal.
