Abstract:
A discovery method is provided by a device in a D2D direction communication. The device selects a discovery resource unit from among discovery resource units which are not being used after listening during one or more discovery resource periods. The device transmits a first discovery signal through the selected discovery resource unit in a broadcasting manner at a first discovery resource period, and transmits a second discovery signal through the selected discovery resource unit in a query-based manner at a second discovery resource period.
Abstract:
A synchronization method by a device is provided in a device-to-device direct communication. The device receives synchronization signals from a plurality of other devices at a current frame, and estimates a synchronization time at a next frame based on the synchronization signals received from the other devices.
