SELECTIVELY TRIGGERING A COMMUNICATIVE ACTION BASED ON WHETHER A QUORUM CONDITION FOR A PEER-TO-PEER GROUP IS SATISFIED

摘要

In an embodiment, a UE obtains one or more quorum conditions for communication with a given group from a set of groups to which the UE is registered. The UE searches, over a P2P interface, to identify one or more group members that are registered to the given group and which are proximate to the UE. The UE determines whether the identified one or more group members are sufficient to satisfy at least one of the one or more quorum conditions (e.g. if the number of discovered members exceeds a threshold, either in terms of an absolute number of members or as a percentage of the user group). The UE selectively triggers a communicative action associated with the given group if determined that at least one quorum condition is satisfied.
