Abstract:
A device synchronization method in D2D communication implements synchronization between devices. One such method includes receiving first device-to-device (D2D) synchronization information sent by a first device in a D2D communication, including a secondary D2D synchronization signal (SD2DSS). The method further includes determining a synchronization source identifier and a forwarding hop count according to preset correspondences between the SD2DSS and the synchronization source identifier and between the SD2DSS and the forwarding hop count. A synchronization source which corresponds to the synchronization source identifier is synchronized with. The forwarding hop count in the first D2D synchronization information is updated in response to determining that the forwarding hop count in the first D2D synchronization information is less than a set threshold, to obtain second D2D synchronization information, and the second D2D synchronization information is sent.

Claim (Index 17):
The method according to  claim 15 , wherein the D2D synchronization signal carries first-part D2D synchronization information of the first D2D synchronization information, the method further comprising:\n sending second-part D2D synchronization information of the first D2D synchronization information through a physical D2D synchronization channel (PD2DSCH), wherein the first-part D2D synchronization information and the second-part D2D synchronization information are combined into the first D2D synchronization information.
