Abstract:
The described technology is generally directed towards an autonomous topology management scheme in a wireless communications network that establishes a hierarchical structure from a peer-to-peer network without assistance from the wireless network. A group of user equipments negotiate with each other to elect a local manager that acts as a base station by which other user equipments of the group can access network resources. Described is an example voting scheme by which the negotiation process elects the local manager for a term.

Claim (Index 4):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the determining the local manager of the group further comprises receiving at least two neighbor-candidacy notifications within a certain time window that nominate at least two corresponding radio user equipment as candidates to be the local manager of the group, choosing a selected candidate of the candidates of the at least two corresponding radio user equipment based on signal strength information corresponding to the at least two neighbor-candidacy notifications, and sending, within a time duration, the voting data identifying the selected candidate in response to the receiving the at least two neighbor-candidacy notifications.
