摘要

Provided are a method and apparatus for checking the validity of a candidate cooperative device list for client cooperation in a wireless communication system. A base station searches at least one candidate cooperative device for a source device, starts a list validity timer indicating a validity time of the candidate cooperative device list for the source device, and determines whether or not the candidate cooperative device list is valid. The base station and the source device are connected through a first system, and the base station and one recommended candidate cooperative device selected from the candidate cooperative device list are connected through a second system.
