Device - to - device (D2D) communications between user equipments (UEs) that lead to effecient reuse of radio resources is likely to become integral to the future 5G standards. In such a D2D system. UEs do not necessary communicate via evolved Node Base station (eNB): however, they are allowed to communicate directly with each other. On the one hand, this underlying communication structure offers a short yet, fast communication links that permits to offload the network increase the capacity and extend the cellular coverage
