Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may scan a first channel for access points during a first non-extended-personal-area-network (non-XPAN) service period. The wireless communication device may scan the first channel in one or more additional non-XPAN service periods. Numerous other aspects are described.

Channel scan in multiple service periods

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Techniques described herein provide for a termination of a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) pairing session between a first NAN device and a second NAN device. A first NAN device that has initiated a pairing session with a second NAN device may transmit a deauthentication frame to the other NAN device to terminate the pairing session and remove the authentication key(s). The first NAN device and second NAN device terminate the pairing session and remove the authentication key(s). The deauthentication frame may include a header that indicates the addresses for the first and second NAN devices. In some cases, the first NAN device may establish NAN communications with multiple peer devices (e.g., in a NAN cluster). The first NAN device may multicast the deauthentication frame to the multiple devices. The multicast deauthentication frame may include an identifier for the NAN cluster.
