Abstract: Disclosed is a method for controlling interference for D2D communication. The method includes: identifying whether a position of a first user device belongs to a first area that satisfies a predetermined criterion; and if the position of the first user device is identified to belong to the first area, determining some resources constituting dedicated resources of the first area, among available resources of a signal for discovering a counterpart user device of D2D communication by the first user device, as resources of the signal.

Abstract: An apparatus and method select a Device (D2D) communication mode according to whether there is signal interference. A method of operating a Transmitting (Tx) terminal, linked to a Receiving (Rx) terminal, for performing D2D communication includes confirming that the terminal is included in at least any one of groups in which links are grouped according to a link priority, receiving a result of determining whether there is a signal interference caused by at least three in-group links from the Rx terminal, and selecting a communication mode for communicating with the Rx terminal according to whether the signal interference exists.

Abstract: A link scheduling apparatus and method based on inter-link interference information sharing technique for use in a Device to Device (D2D) communication system is provided. A link scheduling method of a transmission node in a wireless communication system supporting direct communication between the transmission and recipient nodes includes receiving interference information of at least one recipient node from at least one recipient node, the interference occurring from at least one transmission node to at least one reception node, scheduling links based on the interference information; and transmitting data according to the scheduled links.
