    Abstract: A mobile device can include ranging circuitry to determine distance to another mobile device. A first wireless protocol can establish an initial communication session to perform authentication and/or exchange ranging settings. A second protocol can perform ranging, and other wireless protocols can transmit content. In one example, the distance information can be used to display a relative position of another device on a user interface of a sending device. The user interface can allow a user to quickly and accurately select the recipient device for sending the data item. As other example, the distance information obtained from ranging can be used to trigger a notification (e.g., a reminder) to be output from a first mobile device or used to display a visual indicator on a receiving device. Proximity of a device (e.g., as determined by a distance) can be used to suggest recipient for a new communication.

    Abstract: The first mobile device transmits (602) a request to establish outgoing pairwise ranging sessions with other mobile devices of the group. Each of the mobile devices of the group of mobile devices can establish ranging sessions with the other mobile devices (604). Each mobile device can act as both an initiating device and a responding device for the ranging session. The first mobile device detects (606) one or more redundant ranging sessions the mobile devices. The first mobile device identifies (608) whether to keep or terminate each of the one or more redundant ranging sessions based on a common criterion. The first mobile device performs (610) ranging using remaining ranging sessions with each of the other mobile devices.
