Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A first wireless device may establish a communication session with a second wireless device using a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) radio access technology (RAT). The first wireless device may transmit a first indication that the first wireless device is capable of using a secured ranging protocol. The first wireless device may receive a second indication that the second wireless device is also capable of using the secured ranging protocol. The first wireless device may determine one or more setup parameters to use for a ranging procedure between the first wireless device and the second wireless device based on the first indication and the second indication. Accordingly, the first wireless device may obtain a measurement report after using the secured ranging protocol to perform the ranging procedure in accordance with the one or more setup parameters.
