Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for Wi-Fi peer-to-peer (P2P) communications. A seeker user equipment (UE) may identify a desired service to be provided via Wi-Fi P2P communication. The seeker UE may broadcast a probe that identifies the desired service. An advertiser UE may receive the probe from the seeker UE. The probe identifies a desired service for the seeker UE that is to be provided via Wi-Fi P2P communication. The advertiser UE may transmit a probe response to the seeker UE only when it is determined that the advertiser UE is capable of providing the identified desired service.

Abstract: Techniques are described for establishing a Wireless Serial Bus (WSB) service to transport data using a Media Agnostic Universal Serial Bus (MAUSB) protocol according to a selected transport mode in a WSB session of the WSB service. The MAUSB protocol may be deployed either over an Internet Protocol (IP) stack or directly over a Media Access Control (MAC) layer. According to the techniques, the wireless service advertiser and the wireless service seeker negotiate the transport mode for the MAUSB protocol in each WSB session of the WSB service. During a service discovery process, the wireless service advertiser identifies one or more supported transport modes for the MAUSB protocol in service information for the WSB service. During a P2P connection setup and a WSB session setup, the wireless service seeker indicates a selected one of the supported transport modes for the MAUSB protocol in session information for the WSB session.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for supporting unknown peripheral function protocols (PFP) with a wireless docking station. A wireless docking station may facilitate connections between a wireless dockee and peripherals employing both recognized and unrecognized PFPs. A docking station may request one or more service discovery parameters from a peripheral having an unrecognized PFP. The docking station may receive service discovery parameters in response, convey the received discovery parameters to a wireless dockee, and facilitate discovery and a connection between the device and the peripheral. The discovery parameters may include various identifiers related to peripheral function, identity, and location.

Abstract: This disclosure provide systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for providing service connectivity to a service of a service provider via a wireless local area network (WLAN). Several service connectivity techniques are described. In some implementations, a first wireless device may establish a communication link with the AP to access the service. In some implementations, the first wireless device may be an internet of things (IoT) device, and may be a headless IoT device. The communication link may be established without the wireless device joining a Basic Service Set (BSS) of an access point (AP). The service connectivity may be implemented using broadcast services between an AP and the wireless device. The broadcast services may be used for uplink broadcast traffic from the wireless device to a service provider via the AP. The service connectivity techniques may support onboarding and security features.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for communicating in a wireless communication network. One method of communicating over a wireless communication network includes transmitting, by a first wireless device, a connection capability request message to a second wireless device requesting connection capability information of the second wireless device. The method further includes receiving, by the first wireless device, a connection capability response from the second wireless device indicating one or more communication protocols available for providing a service to the first wireless device. In some aspects, the method may further include selecting, by the first wireless device, based at least in part on the connection capability response, a communication protocol from one of the one or more communication protocols indicated, wherein the communication protocol may be utilized for obtaining the service from the second wireless device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for service discovery and session establishment framework to enable a synchronous audio/video streaming service from a source to multiple sink devices. In accordance with the present disclosure, a plurality of sink devices (e.g., Wi-Fi speakers) may be deployed in a flexible (e.g., plug-and-play) fashion and may be discoverable by the source device. In some examples, the devices from multiple vendors may interoperate and easily connect with the source device for flexible configuration based on the media content or number of available sink devices. Thus, the present disclosure provides a method for service specific discovery associated with synchronous audio/video streaming by utilizing Application Service Platform (ASP) service discovery prior to establishment of a display service session from a source device to multiple sink devices.
