Abstract

A method for a neighbor aware network (NAN) according to one embodiment of the present specification comprises the steps of: allowing a first terminal to exchange device capability information regarding a scheduling scheme for data communication with a second terminal in a search window; allowing the first terminal to maintain an awake state in a paging window to receive a paging message including identification information indicating a receiving terminal (recipient) for traffic to be received from the second terminal, when a paging scheme is selected by means of the scheduling scheme; and allowing the first terminal to terminate, early, the paging window and switching from the awake state to a sleep state, when a channel evaluation indicator indicating a channel state of a wireless channel according to a signal received at a physical layer of the first terminal is idling for a predetermined threshold time.
