METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR ESTABLISHING DEVICE-TO-DEVICE CONNECTION

The present invention discloses a method, an apparatus, and a system for establishing a device-to-device connection, and relates to the field of communications technologies. The method includes: obtaining, by a device-to-device D2D server, registration information of a first device needing to perform D2D communication; performing pre-matching for the first device according to the registration information of the first device to find a second device; and triggering an evolved Node Base eNB to establish a D2D communication link between the first device and the second device. In the present invention, a D2D server triggers an eNB to establish a direct device-to-device connection between two devices.
