Methods and apparatus related to signaling request to transmit traffic in wireless communications
Methods and apparatus related to the communication of traffic in peer to peer communications are described. A peer to peer communications system includes traffic slots, and for a pair of devices (first and second) having a connection a first transmission request resource and a second transmission request resource are associated with a traffic transmission interval of the traffic slot, the first request resource preceding the second request resource. The first device can utilize the first resource to transmit a request to transmit traffic to the second device, and when it does, it also uses the second resource to transmit additional information corresponding to the request and/or traffic. If the second device doesn't detect a request on the first resource, then it can use the second resource to transmit a request to first device to transmit traffic to the first device.
