Abstract

A method and apparatus for indicating quality of service (QoS) of device-to-device (D2D) data in a wireless communication system is provided. A first user equipment (UE) determines a value of a field in a header based on an identified QoS of the D2D data, and transmits to a second UE a layer 2 protocol data unit (PDU), which includes the header including the field having the determined value. Upon receiving the layer 2 PDU, the second UE identifies the QoS of the D2D data based on the value of the field in the header.
