Abstract

Techniques are provided for opportunistic backhauling of data in a deployment of FTM Responder systems. An example FTM Responder may include a backhaul payload processing circuit configured to determine a requirement to transmit a first instance of backhaul data to a first destination device. The FTM Responder may also include an FTM request handler circuit configured to receive a first FTM request from a first mobile station. The FTM Responder may further include an FTM response generation circuit configured to generate an FTM response that includes FTM data responsive to the request and a first backhaul payload message. The first backhaul payload message includes an address of the first destination device and further includes the first instance of backhaul data. The FTM Responder may further include a transceiver circuit configured to transmit the FTM response to the first mobile station. The FTM Responder may be an FTM capable wireless access point (AP).
