Abstract

One embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for shifting the state of a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) terminal in a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of: receiving a first synchronization beacon frame; and receiving a second synchronization beacon frame after the first sync beacon frame has been received, wherein the state of the NAN terminal is shifted to a state capable of transmitting synchronization beacon frames regardless of a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of the synchronization beacon frames, when anchor master rank information included in the first synchronization beacon frame and anchor master rank information included in the second synchronization beacon frame are different, and the NAN terminal is in a non-master non-sync state.
