According to the method of the present invention, an outage margin of the D2D communication is obtained, wherein the outage margin indicates the margin that the communication from the D2D transmitter to the D2D receiver is in outage; and a target transmission power of the at least one UE is determined based on the outage margin to perform cellular scheduling.
