Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for determining a D2D relay node, including steps of: measuring, by a first UE, its own running state; in the case that the first UE determines that its own running state meets a predetermined condition in accordance with a measurement result, determining the first UE as a relay node; and notifying, by the first UE, other UEs currently using a D2D link that the first UE is the relay node via a PC5 interface.
