Abstract:
A device and a method for performing Device to Device (D2D) communication in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes transmitting information on a self-frequency band selected from all frequency bands for the D2D communication, to the second mobile station, receiving information on a counterpart-frequency band selected for the D2D communication, from the second mobile station, determining transmission and reception frequency bands to be used for the D2D communication, based on the information on the self-frequency band and the information on the counterpart-frequency band, transmitting data to the second mobile station in the determined transmission frequency band, and receiving data from the second mobile station in the determined reception frequency band.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing a state transition for Device to Device (D2D) communication are provided. The method includes determining whether D2D initiation is required, while a terminal is operating in a first or a second state defined by EPS (Enhanced Packet System) Mobility Management (EMM)-Deregistered and EPS Connection Management (ECM)-IDLE at a Non-Access Stratum (NAS) layer and Radio Resource Control (RRC)-IDLE. If the D2D initiation is required, the method includes transitioning to a third state defined by EMM-Registered and ECM/RRC-Connected and performing the D2D initiation through a mobile communication network. If a deactivation condition is satisfied or a D2D state update is completed in the third state, the method includes transitioning to a fourth state defined by EMM-Registered and ECM/RRC-IDLE, and if a state update or scheduling for D2D communication is required in the fourth state, the method includes transitioning to the third state.
