Abstract:
A device includes a memory configured to store instructions and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to receive a media packet and to determine, based on a field of the media packet, whether the media packet includes motion data. The one or more processors are also configured to execute the instructions to, based on the media packet including motion data, extract the motion data from the media packet.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a mechanism to perform a CSB burst mode between a master device and one or more slave devices. In CSB burst mode, the master device may broadcast more than one packet of data in a CSB interval, and hence, may use the time slots in a CSB interval more efficiently than while operating in traditional CSB mode. CSB burst mode of the present disclosure may be used to improve the latency and duty cycle of data transmissions, such as for example, broadcast audio. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine to broadcast a set of packets during a CSB interval, where the set of packets includes a plurality of packets. In some aspects, the apparatus may broadcast the set of packets during the CSB interval to a set of second nodes.
Abstract:
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. In certain configurations, the apparatus may connect to a mesh network that includes at least the first device and a second device. The apparatus may communicate with the second device without obtaining one or more access credentials from the second device.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications at a wireless audio device are described. A first (e.g., primary) wireless audio device may initiate a role switch procedure with a second (e.g., secondary) wireless audio device. The first wireless audio device may disable traffic flow between the source device and the first wireless audio device and transmit synchronization information and timing information necessary for taking over the role of primary wireless audio device to the second wireless audio device. The first wireless audio device may transmit a device role switch message, and the first wireless audio device and the second wireless audio device may perform the role switch. After performing the role switch, the first wireless audio device may assume the role of a secondary wireless audio device and the second wireless audio device may assume the role of a primary wireless audio device.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally the described techniques provide for establishing, by a first speaker a control communication link with a second speaker over a first piconet, receiving a signal during an extended synchronous connection-oriented (eSCO) window between a wireless device and the second speaker (e.g., one of a null signal, an acknowledgement (ACK) signal, or a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal) switching from the second piconet to the first piconet based on the received communication, communicating with the second speaker on the first piconet, and closing the eSCO window based at least in part on the communication.
Abstract:
Described are techniques for sharing data among a group of mobile devices that are registered to the same user. In some instances, the shared data is sensor data captured by a mobile device or media content being processed by the mobile device. The mobile devices in the group are configured to wirelessly communicate with each other and to share status information. Using the status information, the mobile devices can keep each other updated as to the operational status of each individual mobile device and, in some aspects, the status of a mobile device with respect to the user. The sensor data or media content can be forwarded to a different mobile device in response to a determination made based on the status information. For instance, forwarding can be based on a rule that specifies one or more conditions relating to the status of a mobile device and/or user status.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes a first slave device that transmits information to a second slave device indicating that a first data packet was improperly received from a master device, so that a corresponding data packet may be relayed from the second slave device to the first slave device. In an aspect, the second slave device may receive a first data packet followed by an indication that the first slave device improperly received the first data packet, where the second slave device is configured to relay the first data packet to the first slave device in response thereto. In another aspect, the second slave device may receive a request to listen for a separate data stream of the first slave device based on a first data packet being improperly received by the first slave device and transmit a second data packet of the separate data stream to the first slave device.
Abstract:
A wireless communication device for concurrent transmission is described. The wireless communication device includes a first transmitter that sends a first transmit packet on a first frequency. The wireless communication device also includes a second transmitter that sends a second transmit packet on a second frequency that overlaps in time with the first transmit packet. The wireless communication device further includes a processor that coordinates when the first and second transmit packets end such that a first receive packet does not overlap in time with a second receive packet or the second transmit packet. The wireless communication device additionally includes a demodulator that demodulates both the first receive packet in response to the first transmit packet and the second receive packet in response to the second transmit packet.
Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for improving performance of short-range wireless network channel scans using receiver diversity. In an aspect, an electronic device having two or more short-range wireless network receiver antennas determines whether to utilize different receiver antennas of the two or more short-range wireless network receiver antennas to perform concurrently scheduled channel scans for different short-range wireless network radio access technologies (RATs) supported by the electronic device, or to perform an accelerated channel scan for a single short-range wireless network RAT of the different short-range wireless network RATs supported by the electronic device, and performs the concurrently scheduled channel scans or the accelerated channel scan based on the determination.
Abstract:
Methods, systems and devices for locating a wireless identity transmitter with a central server connected with one or more proximity broadcast receivers, such as stationary receivers or mobile devices operating as wireless receivers. The wireless identity transmitter may be a compact device configured to broadcast messages, such as through Bluetooth® advertisements, including an identification code. When within proximity, a proximity broadcast receiver may receive broadcast messages from the wireless identity transmitter and relay location information along with the wireless identity transmitter's identification code to a central server as sighting messages. The proximity broadcast receiver's own location may provide an approximate location for the wireless identity transmitter. The central server may process sighting messages, which may include signal strength information, to accurately locate the wireless identity transmitter. The central server may transmit data to third-party devices and/or mobile devices of users in response to receiving sightings messages.
