Abstract

Provided are a method by which a first device performs wireless communication, and an apparatus for supporting same. The method may comprise the steps of: generating at least one token on the basis of a bucket size and a token generation rate; determining, on the basis of the triggering of the first manipulation intent, the number of tokens for executing a first manipulation intent; transmitting, to a second device, sidelink control information (SCI) for scheduling a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) through a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), the SCI including information related to priorities, information related to resource allocation, and information related to a modulation and coding scheme (MCS); and transmitting, to the second device through the PSSCH, a medium access control protocol data unit (MAC PDU) including the information related to the number of tokens and a request for the first manipulation intent.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method performed by a first device, the method comprising:
generating at least one token based on a size of a bucket and a token creation rate;
determining, based on a triggering of a first manipulation intention, a number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention;
transmitting, to a second device, sidelink control information (SCI) for scheduling a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) through a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), wherein the SCI includes information regarding a priority, information regarding resource assignment, and information regarding modulation and coding scheme (MCS); and
transmitting, to the second device, a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU) including information regarding the number of tokens and a request for the first manipulation intention through the PSSCH.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a resource to be occupied by the first manipulation intention of the first device overlaps a resource to be occupied by a second manipulation intention of the second device.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the size of the bucket is a maximum number of tokens that can be stored in the bucket.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the second device, acceptance information for the request, based on that a number of tokens for executing a second manipulation intention of the second device is less than the number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
executing the first manipulation intention based on the acceptance information,
wherein a number of tokens stored in the bucket is deducted by the number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the second device, rejection information for the request, based on that a number of tokens for executing a second manipulation intention of the second device is greater than the number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein, based on the rejection information, the first manipulation intention is not executed, and a number of tokens stored in the bucket is not deducted.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the second device, acceptance information for the request, based on that a number of tokens for executing a second manipulation intention of the second device is equal to the number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the size of the bucket or the token creation rate is determined based on congestion level.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein a size of a bucket or a token creation rate related to high congestion level is smaller than a size of a bucket or a token creation rate related to low congestion level.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the congestion level includes vehicle density or channel busy ratio (CBR).

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the size of the bucket or the token creation rate is determined based on a priority of the first device.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein a size of a bucket or a token creation rate of a device with a high priority is greater than a size of a bucket or a token creation rate of a device with a low priority.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the size of the bucket or the token creation rate is determined based on characteristics of a region.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein a size of a bucket or a token creation rate related to a region with a high congestion level is smaller than a size of a bucket or a token creation rate related to a region with a low congestion level.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the size of the bucket and the token creation rate are determined by the first device.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein information related to the size of the bucket and information related to the token creation rate are received from a third device, and
wherein the third device includes at least one of a road side unit (RSU), a server, and a network.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the information related to the size of the bucket and the information related to the token creation rate received from the third device are prioritized over information related to the size of the bucket and information related to the token creation rate determined by the first device.

19. A first device, comprising:
at least one transceiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one memory connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed, cause the first device to perform operations comprising:
generating at least one token based on a size of a bucket and a token creation rate;
determining, based on a triggering of a first manipulation intention, a number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention;
transmitting, to a second device, sidelink control information (SCI) for scheduling a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) through a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), wherein the SCI includes information regarding a priority, information regarding resource assignment, and information regarding modulation and coding scheme (MCS); and
transmitting, to the second device, a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU) including information regarding the number of tokens and a request for the first manipulation intention through the PSSCH.

20. A processing device, comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed, cause a first device to perform operations comprising:
generating at least one token based on a size of a bucket and a token creation rate;
determining, based on a triggering of a first manipulation intention, a number of tokens for executing the first manipulation intention;
transmitting, to a second device, sidelink control information (SCI) for scheduling a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) through a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), wherein the SCI includes information regarding a priority, information regarding resource assignment, and information regarding modulation and coding scheme (MCS); and
transmitting, to the second device, a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU) including information regarding the number of tokens and a request for the first manipulation intention through the PSSCH.
