Delegated peer-to-peer scheduling on allocated channels

A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer program code that, when executed by operation of one or more computer processors, performs an operation comprising:

• determining, by a first peer-to-peer device, one or more wireless channels allocated for peer-to-peer communication;
• receiving, by the first peer-to-peer device, a first request indicating a first set of transmission characteristics from a second peer-to-peer device that uses the first peer-to-peer device as a communications proxy;
• scheduling, by the first peer-to-peer device, wireless resources of the one or more wireless channels to a plurality of peer-to-peer devices based at least in part on the first set of transmission characteristics, comprising assigning one or more communication time slots to each of the plurality of peer-to-peer devices based on respective priorities for each of the plurality of peer-to-peer devices;
• and
• performing, by the first peer-to-peer device, peer-to-peer communications with the second peer-to-peer device in accordance with the scheduled wireless resources.

A system, comprising:

• one or more computer processors;
• and
• a memory containing a program which when executed by the one or more computer processors performs an operation, the operation comprising:
• determining, by a first peer-to-peer device, one or more wireless channels allocated for peer-to-peer communication;
• receiving, by the first peer-to-peer device, a first request indicating a first set of transmission characteristics from a second peer-to-peer device that uses the first peer-to-peer device as a communications proxy;
• scheduling, by the first peer-to-peer device, wireless resources of the one or more wireless channels to a plurality of peer-to-peer devices based at least in part on the first set of transmission characteristics;
• performing, by the first peer-to-peer device, peer-to-peer communications with the second peer-to-peer device in accordance with the scheduled wireless resources;
• receiving, by the first peer-to-peer device, one or more updated requests indicating one or more updated sets of transmission characteristics;
• and
• scheduling, by the first peer-to-peer device, wireless resources of the one or more wireless channels to the plurality of peer-to-peer devices based on the one or more updated set of transmission characteristics.

A method, comprising:

• determining, by a first peer-to-peer device, one or more wireless channels allocated for peer-to-peer communication;
• receiving, by the first peer-to-peer device, a first request indicating a first set of transmission characteristics from a second peer-to-peer device that uses the first peer-to-peer device as a communications proxy;
• scheduling, by the first peer-to-peer device, wireless resources of the one or more wireless channels to a plurality of peer-to-peer devices based at least in part on the first set of transmission characteristics;
• receiving, by the first peer-to-peer device, a second request indicating a second set of transmission characteristics from a third peer-to-peer device that acts as a communications proxy for a fourth peer-to-peer device;
• scheduling, by the first peer-to-peer device, the wireless resources of the one or more wireless channels to the plurality of peer-to-peer devices based further on the second set of transmission characteristics;
• and
• performing, by the first peer-to-peer device, peer-to-peer communications with the second peer-to-peer device in accordance with the scheduled wireless resources.
