Abstract
A method of supervising device-to-device communication may include determining that a first wireless device and a second wireless device are configured to communicate with each other through device-to-device communication as a device-to-device pair. The method may further include assigning a pair identifier to the device-to-device pair. The pair identifier may be configured to allow the device-to-device pair to communicate with each other and an access point of a wireless communication network while protecting from eavesdropping. Further, the method may include directing the first wireless device and the second wireless device to use the pair identifier while participating in the device-to-device communication.
