Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques to advertise and discover peer to peer services and connection attributes. In particular services and connection attributes for a peer to peer network like Wi Fi Direct can be advertised and discovered using near field communication techniques by transmitting at least a handover select frame including an advertised services hash in the P2P attributes portion of the frame.

14. The apparatus of claim 13, the second radio to comprise a near field communication (NFC) radio.
15. The apparatus of claim 14, wherein the service discovery request is a handover request frame and wherein handover request frame includes a P2P attributes portion, the P2P attributes including an indication of a service hash.
16. The apparatus of claim 14, wherein the P2P service information is a handover select frame and wherein the handover select frame includes a P2P attributes portion, the P2P attributes portion including an indication of the services available to the device through the P2P network.
17. The apparatus of claim 11, the discovery component to send a control directive to power on the second radio in order to transmit the P2P service information.
18. The apparatus of claim 11, further comprising:
a first antenna array operably coupled to the first radio; and a second antenna array operably coupled to the second radio.
19. The apparatus of claim 11, the circuitry to comprise an application processor or a baseband processor.
20. A method implemented by a device in a wireless network, the method comprising:
receiving peer-to-peer (P2P) service information from a device, the P2P service information including indications of one or more services available on the device through a P2P network using a first radio, the P2P service information received from the device using a second radio.
21. The method of claim 20, comprising transmitting a service discovery request to the device using the second radio, the service discovery request including an indication of a request to receive P2P service information from the device.
22. The method of claim 20, wherein the service discovery request is a handover request frame, the handover request frame including a P2P attributes portion, the P2P attributes including an indication of a service hash and wherein the P2P service information is a handover select frame, the handover select frame including a P2P attributes portion, the P2P attributes portion including an indication of the services available on the device through the P2P network.
23. At least one machine readable medium comprising a plurality of instructions that in response to being executed on a wireless device cause the wireless device to:
receive a service discovery request from a device, the service discovery request including an indication of a request to receive peer-to-peer (P2P) service information; and
transmit P2P service information to the device, the P2P service information including indications of one or more services available to the device through a P2P network using a first radio, the service discovery request received from the device using a second radio and the P2P service information transmitted to the device using the second radio.
24. The method of claim 23, the first radio comprising a Wi-Fi radio, the second radio comprising a near field communication (NFC) radio, and the P2P network comprising a Wi-Fi Direct network.
25. The method of claim 24, wherein the service discovery request is a handover request frame and the P2P service information is a handover select frame.
