Abstract

The disclosure relates to a method performed by a UE, for using subframes of a radio access network for a D2D communication. The method comprises determining (650) subframes available for D2D communication among subframes of the radio access network. The subframes available for D2D communication exclude a number of subframes of the radio access network, such that a periodicity of the D2D communication in number of subframes divides the number of subframes available for D2D communication. The method also comprises using (660) the determined subframes for enabling D2D communication.
