Abstract
Disclosed herein are techniques to enable remote wakeup of controlled devices. In particular, a controlling device and a controlled device may each power on a radio during a wakeup window. The controlling device may communicate a wakeup frame to the controlled device during the wakeup window to wake the controlled device from a sleep or low power state for purposes of communicating with the controlled device in a network, such as a peer-to-peer network.

26. An apparatus for a device in a wireless network, the apparatus comprising:
-
circuitry; a radio wakeup component executable by the circuitry, the radio wakeup component to determine a wakeup window for communicating information including an indication of a request to wakeup a controlled device in order to communicate in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network with the controlled device, the radio wakeup component to determine the wakeup window based on a wireless network different than the P2P network. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)

41. A method implemented by a device in a wireless network, the method comprising:
-
determining a wakeup window for communicating information including an indication of a request to wakeup a controlled device in order to communicate in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network with the controlled device based on a wireless network different than the P2P network; and sending a control directive to power on a radio during the wakeup window. - View Dependent Claims (42, 43, 44, 45, 46)

47. At least one machine readable medium comprising a plurality of instructions that in response to being executed on a device in a wireless network cause the device to:
-
determine a wakeup window for communicating information including an indication of a request to wakeup a controlled device in order to communicate in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network with the controlled device; send a control directive to power on a radio during the wakeup window; determine whether the controlled device is the device in the wireless network based on the wakeup frame; and generate an awake frame based on the determination that the controlled device is the device in the wireless network. - View Dependent Claims (48, 49, 50)
