    摘要: Devices and methods of providing a NAN schedule update are generally described. NAN devices communicate data on a schedule of repeating time blocks in which transmission in different time blocks are on different channels. A public action frame indicates in a subfield that the frame is a schedule update frame. The schedule update frame provides attributes to have general schedule update for availability time, existing unicast service or existing multicast service. The schedule update frame also contains a schedule update control field that indicates in a subfield that the current time block is cancelled or extended or provides a general schedule update. The schedule update control field also indicates a reason for the schedule update.

    摘要: A multicast publisher and method of establishing multicast scheduling are provided. The publisher determines a schedule for a multicast service that is selected from time slots of a schedule candidate. The schedule candidate is set by the publisher that initiates the multicast group. The multicast group is one-to-many or many-to-many. A response to a request for the service is transmitted to a subscriber and contains the multicast schedule. The response indicates whether the service is available for unicast transmission in addition to multicast. A schedule selection policy for other multicast publishers joining the multicast group specifies that the other multicast publishers are to follow the multicast schedule acquired when joining the multicast group, use the multicast schedule candidate to determine a multicast schedule, or are free to choose a multicast schedule.

    摘要: A STA and method of providing a subscription policy are provided. The STA determines a subscription policy for a multicast, broadcast or unicast service and provides a policy comprising an indication that indicates active subscription (i.e. group joining is required) or no subscription (i.e. group joining is prohibited) or implicit subscription (i.e. group joining is implicit), dependent on network or subscription conditions. Updates to the policy are transmitted upon one or more thresholds are being reached. Subscribers re-subscribe to the service when the indication switches from implicit subscription to active subscription.

    摘要: Embodiments of a station (STA) and method for contention based communication are generally described herein. As part of a Neighborhood Awareness Network (NAN) communication, an originating STA may perform a group of one or more data transmissions to a destination STA during a current time block. The data transmissions may be performed in accordance with a NAN Data Link (NDL) between the originating STA and the destination STA. An initial data transmission of the group may be delayed, with respect to a determined idle period of the current time block, by a back-off interval selected in accordance with a starting contention window (CW) size. In some embodiments, the starting CW size may be based at least partly on a previous CW size used by the originating STA for a data transmission during a previous time block.

    摘要: A network communication device comprises physical layer (PHY) circuitry configured to transmit and receive radio frequency electrical signals to communicate directly with one or more separate network devices; and medium access control layer (MAC) circuitry. The MAC circuitry is configured to: initiate transmission of a packetized message that includes a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) public action frame; receive a data connection request message from a second network device that includes one or more quality of service (QoS) requirements; initiate transmission of a data connection response message that includes data exchange time window information and channel information; and communicate data device-to-device with the second network device according to the data exchange time window information and channel information.

    摘要: A wireless communication device comprises a transceiver configured to communicate information with one or more neighbor devices in accordance with a sync mode of a WiFi communication protocol, and a controller. The controller is configured to monitor for reception of at least one of a response frame or a beacon frame sent by any neighbor device, determine whether to schedule transmission of a service frame, and change operation to a background scan mode when the at least one of the response frame or the beacon frame sent by any neighbor device is undetected for a specified time duration and the transmission of a service frame is unscheduled.

    摘要: Embodiments of a user station (STA) and methods for device-to-device discovery and advertisement through broadcast beacon signals are generally described herein. In some embodiments, group information, including a list of STAs in an advertising group, is transmitted in a beacon. A STA may transmit a request to join the advertising group. The request may be transmitted to an upchain STA, the upchain STA being determined based on inspection of the list of STAs of the advertising group. After receiving a response to the request, the STA may periodically broadcast the beacon and the STA may transmit acknowledgements to the upchain STA upon receiving beacons from the upchain STA.
