Abstract

In the present application, a method for transmitting a signal using device-to-device direct communication by a transmission user equipment in a wireless communication system is disclosed. Specifically, the method comprises the steps of: calculating, within a first resource pool which is periodically defined, a predetermined metric with one or more resource units for a plurality of resource units included in the first resource pool; determining a transmission resource on the basis of the calculated metric; and transmitting a device-to-device communication signal to a reception user equipment using the transmission resource in a second resource pool subsequent to the first resource pool.

Claims (20)

1. A method for transmitting a device-to-device (D2D) signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

monitoring a plurality of first subframes located before a subframe n;

determining at least one second subframe based on received signal strength indication (RSSI) measured in the plurality of first subframes, wherein the at least one second subframe is located after a subframe n+x and x is integer number; and

transmitting the D2D signal using the at least second subframe.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein x is less than or equal to 4 and positive integer.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a subframe having a reference signal received power (RSRP) not satisfied a threshold value is not determined as the at least one second subframe.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of first subframe is consecutive on a time axis.

5. The method according to claim 1 ,

wherein if a number of the at least one second subframe is smaller than a specific value, the RSSI is repeatedly measured until the number of the at least one second subframe becomes greater than or equal to the specific value.

6. A user equipment (UE) for transmitting device-to-device (D2D) signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a wireless communication module for transmitting and receiving a signal to and from a base station (BS) or a peer UE; and

a processor for processing the signal,

wherein the processor is configured to:

monitor a plurality of first subframes located before a subframe n,

determine at least one second subframe based on received signal strength indication (RSSI) measured in the plurality of first subframes, wherein the at least one second subframe is located after a subframe n+x and x is integer number; and

transmit the D2D signal using the at least second subframe.

7. The UE according to claim 6 , wherein x is less than or equal to 4 and positive integer.

8. The UE according to claim 6 , wherein a subframe having a reference signal received power (RSRP) not satisfied a threshold value is not determined as the at least one second subframe.

9. The UE according to claim 6 , wherein the plurality of first subframe is consecutive on a time axis.

10. The UE according to claim 6 , wherein if a number of the at least one second subframe is smaller than a specific value, the RSSI is repeatedly measured until the number of the at least one second subframe becomes greater than or equal to the specific value.
