Methods and apparatus are provided for searching for a peripheral device and transmitting device information in a device-to-device service. First information is transmitted using a first tone in a first region of a search duration. A second tone is determined by transposing a subcarrier index and a symbol index of the first tone. The first information is transmitted through the second tone in a second region of the search duration. First information of a peripheral device is received in the first and the second region of the search duration. The second information is transmitted through a resource region corresponding to the first tone in a third region of the search duration. Second information of the peripheral device is received in the third region of the search duration. Device information of the peripheral device is determined by combining the first and second information of the peripheral device.

Method and apparatus for device to device communication

A method performed by a device for performing synchronization between devices for a Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is provided. The method includes setting, according to a process of the device, the device to a group of devices for performing a dynamic switching; outputting a synchronization signal corresponding to the set group as a signal for setting synchronization in a physical layer; controlling, upon receiving another synchronization signal from another device, the outputting of the synchronization signal by applying a time offset according to a relation between the set group that includes the device and the group that includes the another device; and setting, if the synchronization signal and the another synchronization signal are converged, synchronization of the device based on a time point where the synchronization signal is output.

Method and apparatus for performing synchronization between devices

A mobile station and a network control apparatus are provided. The network control apparatus may generate beamforming information, associated with an interference alignment of a plurality of mobile stations, and transmit the beamforming information to a plurality of base stations. The mobile station may receive a signal from the plurality of base stations based on the beamforming information.

Adaptive interference alignment precoding and decoding to prevent multi-cell interference

Provided are a mobile station that may determine a Precoding Matrix Index (PMI) of a serving channel, generate Channel State Information (CSI) based on only interference channels, and feed back the PMI and the CSI to a serving base station, a base station that may design a precoding vector based on the PMI and the CSI, and an operation of the mobile station. Also, provided are a mobile station that may determine a PMI based on only interference channels, generate CSI of a serving channel, and feed back the PMI and the CSI to a serving base station, a base station that may design a precoding vector based on the PMI and the CSI, and an operation method of the mobile station.
