A system and method for providing content protection in a wireless network for transmitting uncompressed video data is disclosed. An association request is received from a new device by a domain manger. A proximity control test is conducted to determine whether the new device is located within an acceptable distance from the domain manager. The association request is granted or rejected based at least partly on the result of the proximity control test. An authorization token is transmitted to the new device when the association request is granted.

1. A method of providing content protection in a wireless network, the method comprising: receiving an association request from a new device by a domain manager;conducting a proximity control test to determine whether the new device is located within an acceptable computed distance from the domain manager, wherein the proximity control test includes a round trip time (RTT) test, and the proximity control test is launched within a modified reservation function defined within a wireless protocol;determining whether to grant or reject the association request based at least partly on the result of the proximity control test;transmitting an authorization token and the domain manager's public key to the new device when the association request is granted, wherein the public key is used to verify other authorization tokens of other devices within the wireless network that are within the acceptable computed distance from the domain manager. 2. An apparatus for providing content protection in a wireless network, the apparatus comprising: a receiver configured to receive an association request from a new device; anda processor configured to: conduct a proximity control test to determine whether the new device is located within an acceptable computed distance from the apparatus, anddetermine whether to grant or reject the association request based at least partly on the result of the proximity control test, wherein a public key is used to verify an authorization token of the new device within the wireless network that is within the acceptable computed distance from the apparatus, wherein the authorization token includes: a signature field formed by a domain manager, an identifier of one of the domain manager and the new device, and a hash of the public key of the new device. 3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the apparatus is a domain manager. 4. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the processor is further configured to send the authorization token to the new device when the association request is granted. 5. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the authorization token further includes a hash of the identifier concatenated with the public key of the new device. 6. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the proximity control test includes a round trip time (RTT) test. 7. A method of providing content protection in a wireless network, the method comprising: receiving an authorization token transmitted from a second device by a first device located within a domain having an acceptable computed proximity distance range to a domain manager, wherein the authorization token includes: a signature field formed by a domain manager, an identifier of one of the domain manager and the new device, and a hash of the public key of the new device;verifying that the authorization token is issued to the second device for being located within the domain, wherein a first public key belonging to the first device is used to verify the authorization token received by the second device and authorization tokens of other devices within the wireless network that are within the acceptable computed distance from the domain manager; andtransmitting protected content to the second device from the first device. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the verifying includes authenticating a signature field of the authorization token. 9. The method of claim 7, further comprising conducting a mutual authentication procedure by the first device and the second device. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the mutual authentication procedure includes transmitting the first public key belonging to the first device signed by the domain manager to the second device for authentication and receiving a second public key belonging to the second device signed by the domain manager for authentication. 11. An apparatus for providing content protection in a wireless network, the apparatus comprising: a processor configured to: receive an authorization token by a first device transmitted from a second device located within a domain having an acceptable computed proximity distance range to a domain manager, wherein the authorization token includes: a signature field formed by a domain manager, an identifier of one of the domain manager and the new device, and a hash of the public key of the new device, andverify that the authorization token is issued to the second device for being located within the domain, wherein a public key belonging to the first device is used to verify the authorization token received by the second device and authorization tokens of other devices within the wireless network that are within the acceptable computed distance from the domain manager; anda transmitter configured to transmit protected content to the second device. 12. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the processor is configured to verify the authorization token by authenticating the signature field of the authorization token. 13. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the processor is further configured to conduct a mutual authentication procedure. 14. A non-transitory computer-usable medium in a system for providing content protection in a wireless network having computer readable code comprising instructions for: receiving an association request from a first device by a domain manager in a wireless domain, wherein the first device having an acceptable computed proximity distance range to the domain manager;conducting a proximity control test to determine whether the first device is located within the acceptable computed proximity distance range to the domain manager, wherein the proximity control test includes a round trip time (RTT) test, and the proximity control test is launched within a modified reservation function defined within a wireless protocol;determining whether to grant or reject the association request based at least partly on the result of the proximity control test;receiving an authorization token transmitted from the first device by a second device located within the wireless domain having an acceptable computed proximity distance range to the domain manager;verifying that the authorization token is issued to the first device for being located within the domain; andtransmitting protected content to the first device. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the reservation function is defined by a wireless protocol prior to modification. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the modified reservation function is one of a distributed coordinated function (DCF), a point coordinated function (PCF) and a hybrid coordinated function (HCF). 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the reservation function is modified from a wireless protocol defined reservation function to include RTT test indicators. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein the RTT test computes a measurement of distance from the new device to the domain manager. 19. The method of claim 1, wherein the RTT test is performed during an IEEE 802.11 defined function comprising: a distributed coordinated function (DCF), a point coordinated function (PCF) and a hybrid coordinated function (HCF). 20. An apparatus for providing content protection in a wireless network, the apparatus comprising: a receiver configured to receive an association request from a new device; anda processor configured to: conduct a proximity control test to determine whether the new device is located within an acceptable computed distance from the apparatus, anddetermine whether to grant or reject the association request based at least partly on the result of the proximity control test, wherein a public key is used to verify an authorization token of the new device within the wireless network that is within the acceptable computed distance from the apparatus, wherein the authorization token includes: a signature field formed by a domain manager, an identifier of one of the domain manager and the new device, and a hash of the identifier concatenated with the public key of the new device.
