Methods and apparatus for integrating bluetooth devices into neighbor aware networks

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• a receiver configured to receive at least one parameter indicating availability of a service associated with a first wireless protocol from a first wireless device configured to communicate according to the first wireless protocol;
• a processor configured to encapsulate the at least one parameter into a service discovery frame associated with a second wireless protocol;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit the service discovery frame to a second wireless device configured to communicate according to the second wireless protocol.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising code that, when executed, causes an apparatus to:

• receive at least one parameter indicating availability of a service associated with a first wireless protocol from a first wireless device configured to communicate according to the first wireless protocol;
• encapsulate the at least one parameter into a service discovery frame associated with a second wireless protocol;
• and
• transmit the service discovery frame to a second wireless device configured to communicate according to the second wireless protocol.
