Abstract
A method includes generating a paging message at a first device of a data link group of a neighbor aware network (NAN). The paging message includes a paged device list. The paged device list identifies a subset of devices of the data link group, the subset of devices scheduled to receive data from the first device during a transmission window. The paging message includes a receiver address field having a particular receiver address value. The method also includes transmitting, during the paging window, the paging message from to at least one device of the data link group other than the first device.
