Detailed ways [0035] It will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings of embodiments of the present invention. Elements and features of the elements and features described in one figure or one embodiment of the present invention may be illustrated embodiment with one or more other drawings or embodiments described combination. It should be noted that for purposes of clarity, the drawings and the description is omitted irrelevant to the present invention, shown and described are known to those of ordinary skill in the components and processes. [0036] As shown in FIG. 1, the processing circuit 110 for an electronic device according to the present embodiment the user equipment side 100 includes. For example, the processing circuit 110 may be implemented as a particular chip, the chip set or a central processing unit (CPU) and the like. [0037] Processing circuit 110 includes an acquisition unit 111, a sensing unit 113, and an adjusting unit 115. It is noted that, while the figures in the form of a functional block diagram of an acquisition unit 111, a sensing unit 113 and an adjustment unit 115, it should be understood that the acquiring unit 111, a sensing unit 113 and the function unit 115 may also be adjusted by the processing circuit 110 It is implemented as a whole, but not necessarily implemented by the processing circuit 110 actually separate member. Further, although FIG illustrated blocks to a processing circuit 110, however, the electronic device 100 may include a plurality of processing circuits, and may acquisition unit 111, functional unit 113 and the sensing unit 115 to adjust the distribution of the plurality of processing circuits, so that a plurality of processing circuits cooperating to perform these functions. [0038] Acquisition unit 111 is configured to control the user equipment acquires the signal strength reference information on a specific spectrum resources from the base station within the predetermined area. [0039] The predetermined region may be, for example, a region which is not covered by the communication network, the user equipment belongs, so that the user equipment can perform relevant operations as will be described later autonomously in the case of using no network coverage of the acquired reference information. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, but may be provided depending on the application of the predetermined region, and the predetermined region may comprise a region covered by the network. In other words, even in the case of network coverage, the user equipment may be acquired using the reference information related operations autonomously. [0040] Specific spectrum resources may include, for example, the car's proprietary networking spectrum resources (corresponding to the user equipment is a case of a vehicle) or unlicensed spectrum resources bands. [0041] Signal strength on a specific spectrum resources can be reflected in the density or the number of other user devices operating on that particular spectrum resources, when the user equipment is currently utilizing the spectrum resources for specific services close communication within the target area, the other user equipment is interfere with the communication traffic near the source. The reference information may comprise or reflect predetermined corresponding relationship between the reference value of the parameter with the particular spectrum resource signal strength to meet the predetermined communication near-rate traffic admission in the specific spectrum resources and / or transmission reliability sex. The predetermined reference rate of the access information may comprise, for example, using the current reference value of the operating parameter and satisfies the specific spectrum resources on communications traffic near and / or maximum signal transmission reliability when the user equipment is able to endure strength. . [0042] Short-range communication service may include, for example: a machine type communication (the MTC), device-to-device (D2D) communication with the communication, vehicle and other equipment (the V2X), things (IOT) communications. Wherein, the V2X communication may include a vehicle with the vehicle (V2V) communications, vehicular and pedestrian (the V2P) and a vehicle communication infrastructure (V2I) communications. [0043] The reference information may be held and maintained by the base station. The base station may obtain the reference information in various ways, for example: can (the number of user equipment, distribution, use spectrum resources, signal strength, etc.) across the network based on historical data of the reference information is estimated in a predetermined area; or a base station position and motion information can be obtained which services the user equipment, it follows that the number of vehicles entering the predetermined area, the reference information is estimated according to the usual business models; or, respectively, their user equipment the measurement result stored in the target area, in when the signal measurement result reported to the base station, the measurement results can be shared between the base stations, the base station so that a predetermined area at the edge based on the measurement result can be determined that the reference information. [0044] When the sensing unit 113 is configured to the user equipment is within a predetermined area, the control device senses the user signal strength on a specific spectrum resource. [0045] As described above, the control by the acquisition unit 111 to obtain the reference information from the base station based on the estimated signal strength is within a predetermined area of ​​the historical or statistical data derived, for example, be controlled by the sensing unit 113 to sense the signal intensity corresponding to the actual measured value. Sensing a control unit 113, for example, the energy-aware user equipment (energy sensing) or feature detection (feature detection) for signal sensing. [0046] Adjustment unit 115 is configured to control the user equipment is adjusted based on the acquired reference information and the perceived signal strength parameters for the service communication within a predetermined area close to achieve the desired communication performance. Wherein the parameters affecting the rate of admission of traffic near the communication and / or transmission reliability. [0047] Parameters for short-range communication within a predetermined service area, for example, the following parameters may include one or more of: a clear channel assessment (CCA) to access a particular spectrum resource threshold; send traffic communications via short-range the message frequency and / or frequency; communications traffic signal transmission power close. [0048] Wherein the frequency threshold and CCA messages / frequency can affect the rate of admission of the close of business communication, it can affect the signal transmission power of the communication traffic transmission reliability close. More specifically, in the case of certain interference strength, the lower the threshold the CCA message or the higher the frequency, the user equipment access to the higher probability of short-range communication service. Similarly, in the case of certain interference strength, the stronger the signal transmission power, the transmission near the higher the reliability of the communication traffic. [0049] Further, using the current parameter information comprises a reference (e.g. a user equipment or a reference parameter default parameter notified from the base station) to meet a predetermined traffic admission rate close communication on that particular spectrum resources and / or transmission reliability the user equipment can withstand the maximum signal strength. [0050] In the case of a reference parameter notified from the base station, in accordance with one embodiment, the processing circuit 110 may also be configured to acquire parameters of the user equipment from the base station to control the reference value. Wherein the reference values ​​of the parameters of the base station side, for example, determined according to the target access rate of the reference signal intensity within a predetermined region near and business communication and / or transmission reliability. That is, if the signal intensity (interference intensity) in a predetermined region of a reference signal strength, and the user equipment using the reference parameter, it is possible to meet the target access rate and / or transmission reliability. [0051] Adjustment unit 115 may be configured to bias the reference information and the perceived signal strength based on the obtained parameters to adjust. Estimated as described above, by the acquisition unit 111 acquires reference information corresponding to the signal intensity (potential interference level) within the predetermined area, the sensing unit 113 sensing the actual signal strength, it may be based on the perceived intensity of the reference signal the difference between the bias parameter information, thereby enabling access to still meet the target rate and / or transmission reliability when the actual level of interference. [0052] Further, different service communication resource pool near, the target may have different access rate / transmission reliability, or access rate / transmission reliability and interference strength relationship may be different. Accordingly, the reference values ​​of the parameters may be set for different resource pool alone. [0053] Further, it is possible to limit the scope of the adjusted parameter. According to one embodiment, the adjusting unit 115 is configured to adjust a parameter within a predetermined range. In the case of CCA threshold parameters, for example, may be provided, for example, upper and lower thresholds CCA, CCA, for example, when the threshold value reaches the lower limit, even if the target access rate is not satisfied, then no further reduce the CCA threshold. [0054] For example, in the case where a plurality of systems coexist or operator can adjust the parameters of the agreed terms, for example in order to avoid reach their target access rate is excessively reduced CCA threshold, or in order to achieve their excessive increase transmission reliability large signal transmission power. [0055] In addition, short-range communication may include different traffic priority traffic portion. V2X communication with, for example, security-related communications may have a higher priority, such as communication traffic congestion messages, etc. can have normal priority, and communication messages such as advertising may have a lower priority. [0056] According to one embodiment, the adjusting unit 115 may be configured according to the service priority adjustment parameter close business communications, such that admission of high priority service and / or transmission reliability reaches a predetermined level. In other words, to ensure that the priority of high priority access service and / or transmission reliability. [0057] Further, the operation of one embodiment, the sensing unit 113 and adjust the sensing unit 115 may be operated and adjusted periodically, or only for sensing and adjustment in the case where a predetermined trigger condition is satisfied. For example, in a case where a predetermined time has not obtained to find service communication spectrum resources in close, you can trigger the above-described sensing and adjusting operation. [0058] Next, FIG 13 an embodiment with reference to exemplary embodiments, in this example, the user equipment is a vehicle, close to V2X communication service communications, and the CCA threshold parameter. It should be understood, some aspects of the present example is also applicable to other application scenarios. [0059] FIG 13 shows a base station (eNB) or roadside devices (RSU) 1310 with a user equipment (UE) 1320 to exchange information and operation FIG. [0060] In the process (1), eNB / RSU 1310 The UE 1320 (hereinafter may also become a "target node") movement characteristics (e.g. speed, direction), it is determined which is about to leave their coverage area and enter the no network signal coverage region (hereinafter may also become a "target area"). [0061] In the process (2), eNB / RSU 1310 transmits a reference signal strength information which is about to enter the target region to UE 1320. In the present example, a density of a user equipment within the target area to reflect the interfering signal strength in the target area, and accordingly, the reference information may comprise an interference signal I target node receives a source of interference from a reference sent, or a reference interference channel model and transmission information source, and a CCA threshold adjustment required additional information, additional information includes a reference CCA threshold, the corresponding network node density, CCA reference bias adjustment. [0062] In the process (3), V2X UE 1320 based on a signal measurement estimate the density within the target area. The trigger operation may include periodic trigger or do not have the available resources trigger threshold within a preset time. [0063] Further, in the process (3), UE 1320 may select the service corresponding resource pool, for example, select a predetermined pool of available resources, and performs sensing operation for the selected resource pool. [0064] For example, one option is to resource pool, under the same conditions, a wide bandwidth transmission rate can be increased so as to reduce the transmission delay of messages, thereby reducing message collision probability, the resource pool may be wide to the narrow bandwidth resources by unit composed of a sorting unit bandwidth of the widest annular starting sequence, selected according to the operational sequence of the loop. Select the resource pool consider the following features, which can be considered alone or in combination be considered: [0065] Priority (i) is expressed as Rank service X (X), is generally characterized as the probability of access to resources and the transmission delay requirement, the higher the probability of obtaining a higher priority claim of available channels, the transmission delay required for shorter messages, accordingly, a higher priority resource pool service start selection unit resource wide bandwidth, low-priority traffic starting pool of selected resource unit resource the bandwidth is narrow; [0066] (Ii) Message length: the longer the service initiation message selected resource unit resource pool wide bandwidth, short message service start selection unit resource resource pool bandwidth is narrow; [0067] (Iii) the received information needs: usually equipped only with a transceiver device, having properties resulting in only half-duplex, i.e., the information can not be transmitted and received at the same time, if another UE transmits information of the arrival at the target UE sends due to the nature of half-duplex will not lead to information received, one solution to this problem is to increase the bandwidth of the transmission resource, reduce the time required, and accordingly, if the user equipment receives a high demand for other network nodes message, starting the selected resource unit resource pool wide bandwidth; [0068] After the selected resource pool, UE on resources which are perceived signal. Suppose perceived target channel signal strength E AGG , a clear channel assessment threshold the CCA Th , if E AGG
