Abstract

An embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for transmitting a synchronization signal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: generating a synchronization signal on the basis of a cell ID which is determined depending on whether a terminal for transmitting the synchronization signal is a terminal located outside of a coverage; and transmitting the synchronization signal.

Claims (23)

1. A method of receiving a device-to-device (D2D) synchronization signal (SS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving from a second D2D user equipment (UE), by a first D2D UE, a primary D2D SS including ID information, the ID information informing whether the second D2D UE is an in-coverage UE or an out-of-coverage UE; and

receiving, by the first D2D UE, a secondary D2D SS based on the primary D2D SS,

wherein the primary D2D SS is transmitted on a same subframe as the secondary D2D SS and a Physical Sidelink Broadcast Channel (PSBCH), and

wherein a transient period is included in a transmission region of the secondary D2D SS.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein,

the ID information includes a value that is less than a predetermined value in a first state that the second D2D UE is the in-coverage UE, and

the ID information includes a value that is greater than a predetermined value in a second state that the second D2D UE is the out-of-coverage UE.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein transmit power of the PSBCH and transmit power of the secondary D2D SS have different values.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the transient period included in the transmission region of the secondary D2D SS is between the PSBCH and the secondary D2D SS.

5. A first device-to-device (D2D) user equipment (UE) for receiving a synchronization signal (SS) in a wireless communication system, the first D2D UE comprising:

a transmitter;

a receiver; and

a processor,

wherein the processor is configured to control the receiver to:

receive, from a second D2D UE, a primary D2D SS including ID information, the ID information informing whether the second D2D UE is an in-coverage UE or an out-of-coverage UE, and

receive a secondary D2D SS based on the primary D2D SS,

wherein the primary D2D SS is transmitted on a same subframe as the secondary D2D SS and a Physical Sidelink Broadcast Channel (PSBCH), and

wherein a transient period is included in a transmission region of the secondary D2D SS.

6. The first D2D UE according to claim 5 , wherein,

the ID information includes a value that is less than a predetermined value in a first state that the second D2D UE is the is an in-coverage UE, and

the ID information includes a value that is greater than a predetermined value in a second state that the UE is the out-of-coverage UE.

7. The first D2D UE according to claim 5 , wherein transmit power of the PSBCH and transmit power of the secondary D2D SS have different values.
