This disclosure pertains to a method for operating a terminal (10) for a wireless communication network. The terminal (10) is adapted for device-to-device, D2D, communication. The method comprises decoding first data contained in a first D2D message based on a determination of first demodulation reference signaling and/or first scrambling coding associated to the first data, wherein the determination of demodulation reference signaling and/or scrambling coding is based on information extracted from a second D2D message different from the first D2D message, the second D2D message pertaining to second data to which second reference signaling and/or second scrambling coding is associated, the second reference signaling and/or second scrambling coding being different from the first reference signaling and/or second scrambling coding. The disclosure also pertains to related devices and methods.
