Abstract

The present invention provides a method for performing device-to-device communication in a wireless access system that supports the device-to-device communication and an apparatus therefor. Specifically, the invention comprises the steps of: receiving, from a base station, device-to-device communication parameters for broadcasted device-to-device communication; transmitting a detection signal to one or more devices using the received device-to-device communication parameters; receiving, from the one or more devices, link measurement information for measuring a link between a first device and the one or more devices using the detection signal; selecting a second device for performing the device-to-device communication from the one or more devices using the link measurement information; and performing the device-to-device communication with the selected second device.
