Abstract
A method and apparatus for sharing information among a plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) in a wireless communication system comprises a first WTRU in the wireless communication system broadcasting a request for desired information. A second WTRU in the wireless communication system searches a memory of the second WTRU for the desired information and responds to the broadcast by indicating to the first WTRU that it is capable of providing the desired information. The first WTRU requests that the second WTRU provide the desired information, and the second WTRU retrieves the desired information from the memory in the second WTRU and sends the desired information to the first WTRU.
