Methods and apparatus related to group communications in a wireless communications system, e.g., a peer to peer wireless communications system, are described. Methods and apparatus directed to closed groups, e.g., where the number of group members are fixed at a given time and known to one or more members of the group, are described. Various embodiments are well suited to decentralized peer to peer wireless networks including a plurality of individual traffic resources, e.g., traffic slots and/or traffic segments, which may be independently scheduled in a decentralized manner. Various features and/or aspects are directed to associating group transmission request resources and/or request response resources with device identifiers as opposed to associating such resources with connection identifiers. This approach is well suited for large size groups of N members, where the number of the number of connections between members of the group is approximately N2. This approach provides for efficient resource utilization supporting group traffic signaling.
