Abstract

A method for a first terminal communicating with a base station to perform direct communication with a second terminal is provided. The first terminal determines first timing for transmitting or receiving a first signal to or from the base station. Next, the first terminal determines second timing for transmitting a second signal for terminal discovery to the second terminal. When the first timing and the second timing overlap, the first terminal then changes either the first timing or the second timing.
