Abstract

A method for transmitting a D2D (Device to Device) signal in a wireless communication system, includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a synchronization signal; and transmitting, by the UE, the D2D signal based on a timing advance offset related to a reception timing of the synchronization signal, wherein the timing advance offset is a value greater than 0 based on that the UE is the in-coverage of a node B, and wherein the timing advance offset is a value equal to 0 based on that the UE is the out-of-coverage of the node B and the synchronization signal is related to the in-coverage of the node B.

Claims (16)

1. A method for transmitting a D2D (Device to Device) signal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a synchronization signal; and

transmitting, by the UE, the D2D signal based on a timing advance offset related to a reception timing of the synchronization signal,

wherein the timing advance offset is a value greater than 0 based on that the UE is the in-coverage of a node B, and

wherein the timing advance offset is a value equal to 0 based on that the UE is the out-of-coverage of the node B and the synchronization signal is related to the in-coverage of the node B.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the timing advance offset is applied based on a radio frame which is the synchronization signal received through.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the timing advance offset being the value greater than 0 is 624 Ts, wherein Ts=1/(15000*2048) seconds.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the D2D signal is mapped to a time resource different from a time resource to which the synchronization signal received by the UE are mapped.

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

a transceiver; and

a processor,

wherein the processor is configured to:

control the transceiver to receive a synchronization signal, and

control the transceiver to transmit the D2D signal based on a timing advance offset related to a reception timing of the synchronization signal,

wherein the timing advance offset is a value greater than 0 based on that the UE is the in-coverage of a node B, and

wherein the timing advance offset is a value equal to 0 based on that the UE is the out-of-coverage of the node B and the synchronization signal is related to the in-coverage of the node B.
