Provided in various embodiments are a method by which a D2D terminal transmits a reference signal (RS) for a PDoA in a wireless communication system, and a device therefor. Disclosed are a method by which a D2D terminal transmits a reference signal (RS) for a PDoA, and a device therefor, the method comprising the steps of: determining, on the basis of the maximum value of a difference between indexes of subcarriers of a resource block for the transmission of a reference signal (RS), an index set for RS mapping among preconfigured index sets; mapping the RS to the subcarriers of the resource block having indexes corresponding to each of the indexes included in the index set for the RS mapping; and transmitting the resource block to which the RS is mapped, wherein the preconfigured index sets include indexes in which differences between two pairs of indexes are not the same for each number of indexes.
