Abstract
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for wireless communication over a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) data link (NDL). In some aspects, an apparatus may be configured to determine frequency band information for communicating over a NDL associated with a NAN service. In some other aspects, the apparatus may be configured to provide the determined frequency band information for transmission to a subscriber of the NAN service for setting up the NDL.
Claims30
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- a processing system configured to:
- determine frequency band information for communicating over a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) data link (NDL) associated with a NAN service;
- and
- provide the determined frequency band information for transmission to a subscriber of the NAN service for setting up the NDL.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- a processing system configured to:
- receive, from a second apparatus, a message that comprises frequency band information for communicating over a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) data link (NDL) associated with a NAN service;
- select a frequency band for communicating over the NDL based on the received frequency band information;
- and
- attempt to setup a connection with the second apparatus over the NDL based on the selected frequency band.
