Abstract

One or more wireless stations may operate to configure direct communication with neighboring mobile stations, e.g., direct communication between the wireless stations without utilizing an intermediate access point. A mechanism for wireless stations to learn preferred channels of neighboring wireless stations and to schedule channel sequences within a time period based on the learned channels may include advertisement of preferred channels and adaptation of channel sequences, based on the preferred channels, to maximize bandwidth utilization.
