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.
