Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for monitoring a downlink control channel by a first terminal having a single RX chain in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the present invention comprises the steps of: setting a particular gap for a resource area related to device-to-device (D2D) signal transmission/reception; and monitoring a wide area network (WAN) communication-based downlink control channel on the basis of a timer performed according to a discontinuous reception (DRX) operation, wherein the timer is counted on the basis of at least one subframe which does not overlap with the particular gap, and the particular gap is a time interval set for allowing the single RX chain to cover a switching operation between WMN communication and D2D communication.
