Claim 9:
10. An apparatus, comprising:
receiving circuitry configured to receive and process radio signals; and
processing circuitry configured to:
receive a first indication of a first transmit activity pattern associated with a second apparatus that transmits data to the apparatus via a radio interface without passing through a base station, the first indication indicating a first scheduled data transmit cycle of the first transmit activity pattern of the second apparatus;
receive a second indication of a second transmit activity pattern associated with a third apparatus that transmits data to the apparatus directly via the radio interface, the second indication indicating a second scheduled data transmit cycle of the second transmit activity pattern of the third apparatus;
compute a first receive activity pattern including a first receive active portion in time domain for receiving the data transmitted from the second apparatus and the third apparatus, the first receive active portion of the first receive activity pattern being inclusive of at least a first transmit active portion of the first scheduled data transmit cycle of the first transmit activity pattern and a second transmit active portion of the second scheduled data transmit cycle of the second transmit activity pattern; and
control the receiving circuitry to monitor the radio interface according to the first receive activity pattern.
