    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments, an apparatus of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless environment comprises at least one transceiver; and at least one processor operably coupled to the at least one transceiver. The at least one transceiver is configured to receive a reference signal configuration comprising information for indicating whether a reference signal of a transmission and reception point (TRP) is transmitted through beam sweeping from the TRP, and receive the reference signal from the TRP based on the received reference signal configuration.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-fifth generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond fourth generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE).A synchronization signal transmission/reception method for use in a device-to-device (D2D) communication system is provided. A method of transmitting a synchronization signal for D2D communication in an asynchronous network, in which a first terminal located in a first cell controls synchronization with a second terminal located outside of the first cell, includes transmitting, at the first cell, a system information block (SIB) including resource allocation information of the first cell and at least one neighboring cell, determining whether the first terminal is in a first mode and whether the first terminal is scheduled to perform one of a D2D communication and a D2D discovery; determining, when the first terminal is in the first mode, whether the first terminal is required to transmit a D2D synchronization signal (D2DSS); and transmitting, when the first terminal is required to transmit the D2DSS, scheduling information including a transmission time point and transmission reference timing information to the first terminal.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A terminal includes a transceiver configured to transmit or receive signals, and a controller configured to determine whether a current subframe is a subframe in which the terminal has to monitor a PDCCH, in response to the current subframe not being the subframe, determine whether a discovery pool for the terminal exists, and when the discovery pool for the terminal exists, operate a D2D discovery operation in the current subframe.
