Abstract: In response to determining that a Bluetooth inquiry phase or a Bluetooth paging phase is beginning, a power save (PS) mode signal is sent from a first device to a second device via a wireless local area network (WLAN) communication link, wherein the PS mode signal indicates that the first device is in a WLAN PS mode. A PS poll signal is sent from the first device to the second device via the WLAN communication link in a gap between Bluetooth inquiry phase message transmissions during the Bluetooth inquiry phase or between Bluetooth paging phase message transmissions during the Bluetooth paging phase.

Abstract: A device previously configured as a registrar and that has established an independent ad-hoc network is automatically discovered by another device also previously configured as a registrar. To form an ad-hoc wireless network between these two devices, each device periodically enters a scanning mode to scan for and intercept beacons transmitted by the other device. Upon such interception, one of the devices becomes an enrollee in accordance with a predefined condition and in response to a user selected option. Subsequently, the enrollee modifies its beacons to include an attribute, such as the MAC address, associated with the other device. After intercepting the modified beacon, the remaining registrar prompts it user to decide whether to allow the enrollee to join the registrar's network. If the user responds affirmatively, a handshake is performed between the two devices and a subsequent attempt is made by the enrollee to join the registrar's network.

Abstract translation: 先前配置为注册商并已建立独立的自组织网络的设备由先前配置为注册商的另一设备自动发现。 为了在这两个设备之间形成一个自组织无线网络，每个设备周期性地进入扫描模式，以扫描和拦截另一个设备传输的信标。 在这种截取时，其中一个设备根据预定义的条件并响应于用户选择的选项而变为登记者。 随后，登记者修改其信标以包括与其他设备相关联的属性，例如MAC地址。 在拦截修改的信标后，其余的注册商提示用户决定是否允许登记人加入注册商的网络。 如果用户肯定地做出回应，则在两个设备之间执行握手，并且登记者进行随后的尝试以加入注册商的网络。

Abstract: A network interface comprises a random or pseudo-random number generator. The network interface determines that a first communication device is group owner of a peer-to-peer (P2P) group, and randomly or pseudo-randomly generates a media access control (MAC) address for the first communication device using the random or pseudo-random number generator. The network interface utilizes the randomly or pseudo-randomly generated MAC address for the first communication device in group owner communications with one or more second communication devices in the P2P group.

Abstract: A network interface includes a radio frequency system and a media access controller. The media access controller includes first and second client modules and a control module. Each of the client modules wirelessly communicates with a network via the radio frequency system and the antenna. Each of the client modules is controllable to be in an active state or a sleep state. The control module determines priority levels of the first client module and the second client module. The control module also, based on the priority levels, (i) controls the first client module to be in the active state to permit communication between the first client module and the radio frequency system, and (ii) controls the second client module to be in the sleep state to prevent communication between the second client module and the radio frequency system.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for sharing power load in a network. The method includes identifying a first device to serve as an AP of the network in a next time interval, providing network information from a second device that presently serves as the AP to the first device. When the first device starts to serve as the AP of the network, the second device can be configured to enter into a power save state in order to reduce power consumption by the second device in the next time interval.

Abstract: A first message is received that includes a value indicative of a first timeout interval associated with configuring a second device to operate as a peer-to-peer (P2P) group owner or a P2P client in a P2P wireless network. A second timeout interval is determined based at least on the first timeout interval, and it is determined whether the second timeout interval expired. It is determined whether a second message is received from the second device prior to the second timeout interval expiring, and it is determined that a P2P connection with the second device failed based on a determination that the second message was not received from the second device prior to the second timeout interval expiring.
