    Abstract: Various embodiments include systems and methods of determining whether media access control (MAC) address spoofing is present in a network by a wireless communication device. A processor of the wireless communication device may determine an anticipated coherence interval based on a beacon frame received from an access point. The processor may schedule an active scan request and may determine whether a response frame corresponding to the scheduled active request is received within the anticipated coherence interval. The processor may calculate a first correlation coefficient in response to the response frame being received within the anticipated coherence interval and may determine that MAC address spoofing is not present in the network when the first correlation coefficient is greater than a first predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for determining a position indicator are presented. In some embodiments, position data indicating a position of a mobile device is obtained. A position indicator is determined based on at least one region of a map. The position of the mobile device is located within the at least one region. The position indicator indicates a map-feature-dependent region of the map. The position indicator is provided.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for enhanced overlay state maintenance in a peer-to-peer overlay network. A first method includes inferring that a first node is leaving the overlay network, and transmitting a decrement message to decrement a size counter value. A second method includes identifying a set of nodes associated with a first node of an overlay network, obtaining a segment length associated with each node of the set of nodes, and determining a size of the overlay network by dividing the total number of nodes in the set of nodes by the sum of the segment lengths. A third method includes identifying a set of nodes associated with a first node of an overlay network, obtaining a size estimate associated with the first node and with each node of the set of nodes, and determining a size of the overlay network by averaging the size estimates.
