US 10,321,499 B2 · Method and apparatus for transmitting signal in a wireless communication system

Abstract

A method for transmitting a signal by a Device-to-Device (D2D) User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes determining a resource pool for a D2D control signal, determining a resource pool for a D2D communication signal based on the resource pool for a D2D control signal, and transmitting a D2D communication signal using the resource pool for a D2D communication signal. Subframes of the resource pool for a D2D communication signal were reindexed, starting from a first subframe following a last subframe of the resource pool for a D2D control signal.
