Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives information from a serving base station and at least one neighboring base station. The information indicates a time allocation of discovery resources allocated by each of the serving base station and the at least one neighboring base station for performing direct discovery. The apparatus further determines a subframe timing of the serving base station and the at least one neighboring base station, and performs direct discovery using the time allocation of the discovery resources allocated by each of the serving base station and the at least one neighboring base station based on a determined subframe timing of the serving base station or a neighboring base station corresponding to the discovery resources.
