Abstract

The methods, devices, and systems discussed herein describe a wireless communication device broadcasting a periodic discovery channel message that includes an identifier associated with the wireless communication device that indicates its presence to neighboring wireless communication devices. If the neighboring wireless communication devices receive the periodic discovery channel message transmission above a pre-defined received power threshold and successfully decode the periodic discovery channel message, then the transmitting wireless communication device is added to the neighboring wireless communication devices neighboring device list. After receiving the periodic discovery channel messages from all of the neighboring wireless communication devices, a wireless communication device is able to identify all of its immediate neighboring devices and form its neighboring device list. Based on detecting periodic discovery channel message transmissions, a wireless communication device periodically updates its neighboring device list with new additions or removals of neighboring wireless communication devices.
