Abstract
The disclosure proposes a method of forming an N-hop synchronous network for D2D communication and devices using the same. In one of the exemplary embodiments, the method may include detecting one or more synchronization signals which are transmitted from one or more nearby synchronization sources; selecting, from the one or more synchronization signals, a first SS transmitted from a neighboring synchronization source having a hop count=i, wherein i is the smallest hop count detected from the one or more neighboring synchronization sources; and if there are more than one neighboring synchronization sources with hop count=i, the first SS is selected as having a maximum RSRP detected by the UE; and if the RSRP of the first SS does not exceeds a predefined threshold: operating as a synchronization source; and transmitting a SS based on the first SS.
