Abstract:
예컨대, 애드 혹 피어 투 피어 네트워크와 같은 모바일 무선 시스템에서 피어/네트워크/서비스 발견과 관련된 방법들 및 장치들이 설명된다. 예컨대, 상위 계층 발견 정보와 같은 발견 정보의 전송은 시간에 따라 개별적으로 전송될 다수의 부분들로 나누어진다. 각각의 부분들의 전송은 피어 발견 전송들의 주파수에 있어서 유연성(flexibility)뿐만 아니라 이러한 전송들의 모니터링을 가능하게 하도록 구조화된다. 다양한 실시예들은 예컨대, 신뢰성있는 피어들에 의한 선택적 발견과 같은 고속(rapid) 발견 및/또는 보안 발견을 용이하게 한다. 상기 구조화는 예컨대 지원 노드와 같은, 제 3 자에 의한 몇몇의 전송들의 프록싱(proxy)을 가능하게 한다. 상기 지원 노드는 제 1 레이트에서 통신되는 발견 정보 부분들을 수신하고 제 1 레이트보다 높은 제 2 레이트에서 수신된 발견 정보 부분들을 재전송한다.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods and apparatus relating to wireless remote control.SOLUTION: A communications device, such as a cell phone with peer to peer signaling capability, supports remote control functionality. The same communications device can be used as a universal wireless remote controller for a plurality of different remotely controllable devices including, e.g., a television, a DVD player, a light switch, a garage door opener, etc. The communications device monitors for and detects peer to peer signals from remotely controllable devices in its local vicinity. The communications device maintains a list of remotely controllable devices in its vicinity on the basis of the detected peer to peer signals. The universal remote controller user interface is configured in accordance with the maintained list. The universal remote controller provides a user interface which varies on the basis of the device to be controlled.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for managing wireless communications. In one method, a mobile device may determine to transition to a relay status. The relay status may indicate a capability of the mobile device to function as a relay device between at least one other mobile device and a base station. A peer discovery signal that indicates the relay status may then be transmitted. In another method, a mobile device may broadcast an out-of-coverage status indicator in a first peer discovery signal. A second peer discovery signal may be received from at least one other mobile device. The second peer discovery signal may indicate a capability of the at least one other mobile device to function as a relay device.

Abstract:
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS IN REGIONAL NETWORKS, E.G., AD HOC PEER TO PEER NETWORKS, ARE DESCRIBED. WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES TRANSMIT AND MONITOR FOR PRESENCE INDICATOR SIGNALS BROADCAST FROM OTHER PEER COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES IN ITS LOCAL VICINITY. A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE MAINTAINS A LIST OF DISCOVERED DEVICES IN ITS VICINITY. A FIRST WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE TRANSMITS A PAGING SIGNAL DIRECTLY OVER AN AIRLINK TO A SECOND COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE, WHICH IS ON ITS LIST AND TO WHICH IT DESIRES TO SEND DATA UNITS, E.G., USER DATA IN A PEER TO PEER TRAFFIC SEGMENT. IN RESPONSE TO A RECEIVED PAGING RESPONSE SIGNAL FROM THE SECOND DEVICE, THE FIRST DEVICE TRANSMITS DATA UNITS, INTENDED FOR THE SECOND DEVICE, TO A THIRD DEVICE, WHICH ACTS AS AN INTERMEDIARY NODE. THE POWER LEVEL FOR THE DATA UNIT SIGNAL IS CONTROLLED TO BE LOWER THAN THE POWER LEVEL USED FOR THE PAGING SIGNAL.

Un procedimiento (700) para transmitir información de descubrimiento de homólogos, llevada a cabo por unprimer nodo homólogo, que comprende: generar (702) una pluralidad de claves asociadas con un primer identificador; comunicar (704) el primer identificador y por lo menos una de las claves de la pluralidad de claves a unsegundo nodo homólogo; derivar (706) un segundo identificador como una función del primer identificador y la al menos una clave de lapluralidad de claves; y anunciar (708) el segundo identificador a una pluralidad de nodos homólogos.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for wireless communications in regional networks, e.g., ad hoc peer to peer networks, are described. Wireless communications devices transmit and monitor for presence indicator signals broadcast from other peer communications devices in its local vicinity. A wireless communications device maintains a list of discovered devices in its vicinity. A first wireless communications device transmits a paging signal directly over an airlink to a second communications device, which is on its list and to which it desires to send data units, e.g., user data in a peer to peer traffic segment. In response to a received paging response signal from the second device, the first device transmits data units, intended for the second device, to a third device, which acts as an intermediary node. The power level for the data unit signal is controlled to be lower than the power level used for the paging signal.

Un procedimiento (902) para hacer funcionar un primer nodo de comunicaciones (104) en una red de comunicación inalámbrica entre pares, que comprende: recibir (908) un primer mensaje (310) desde un segundo nodo de comunicaciones (102) con el cual existe una relación de confianza, incluyendo el primer mensaje (310) la información de verificación de fuente de mensaje y un identificador de mensaje que identifica un segundo mensaje (303) enviado desde el segundo NODO de comunicaciones (102) a un tercer nodo de comunicaciones (106); y transmitir (914) un tercer mensaje (322) al tercer NODO de comunicaciones (106) con el que existe una relación de confianza, incluyendo el tercer mensaje (322) información de verificación de fuente de mensaje y dicho identificador de mensaje.
Abstract:
A method an apparatus and a computer program product are provided in which information is exchanged through peer to peer communication with a second wireless device using a first radio technology. The information regards at least one additional radio technology. In addition whether to utilize a second radio technology of the at least one additional radio technology for peer to peer communication with the second wireless device rather than the first radio technology is determined. Furthermore the first radio technology is utilized to exchange control information for the second radio technology.
