Method and apparatus for resource allocation for distributed device to device synchronization
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in connection with improving resource allocation for distributed D2D synchronization in densely populated communications systems. In an example, a communications device is equipped to transmit a synchronization signal during a beacon period of a synchronization channel. In an aspect, the synchronization channel may include the beacon period, a paging period, and a TIB period. The communications device may further be equipped to monitor at least one of the beacon period, the paging period, or the TIB period of the synchronization channel for one or more signals from one or more UEs in a D2D network, and determine whether to transmit information during at least one of the beacon period, the paging period, or the TIB period based at least in part on the monitoring.
