Patent number: 11751024Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Nikhil Jain, Justin McGloin, Joel Linsky, James Robert Chapman

Publication number: 20230056166Abstract: Various aspects include methods for supporting context broadcast networking by a device. Aspects provide a cross ecosystem platform that enable seamless user experiences from device centric and fragmented user experiences. Some aspects may include decrypting a broadcast message received from a radio controller if the received broadcast message indicates an account identity value matching a pre-calculated account identity value and is not a duplicate, generating data elements from the decrypted broadcast message, storing the data elements in a data cache; and signaling an interrupt indicating that the data elements are available. Further aspects include a radio controller receiving a first scan interval from a primary host and a second scan interval from a secondary host of the device; scheduling primary host scan windows based on the first scan interval, and cancelling any secondary host second scan windows overlapping any of the scheduled primary host first scan windows.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2022Publication date: February 23, 2023Inventors: Joel LINSKY, Carlos SOLEDADE, Igor MALAMANT, Pavan RUDRAVARAM, Rayadurgam BALAJI, Amarnath HULLUR SUBRAMANYAM, Jacopo CORBETTA

Patent number: 11374623Abstract: Devices and methods for connected isochronous stream (CIS) swapping are disclosed. In an example Bluetoothâ„¢ setting, a smartphone can be connected to multiple earbuds. It is possible that both earbuds include microphones, but only one microphone is enabled at a given time. That is, only one of the CISes established between the smartphone and the earbuds is bidirectional, and the other is unidirectional. The disclosed techniques enable the CISes to be swapped between the earbuds so that the earbud with better microphone quality will have ownership of the bidirectional CIS.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2020Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: Joel Linsky, Mayank Batra

Patent number: 11375574Abstract: Reduced Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) latency on a link between a source and a pair of headphones may be achieved by improving the quality of the link between secondary and primary and establishing a direct link between the source and secondary to mitigate the link quality issues of the source and primary link. In one example, this involves receiving, via a first receiver, packets from a source on a first wireless connection, determining, by the first receiver, that a first packet received via the first wireless connection has an error, establishing a second connection between the first receiver and a second receiver, and establishing a third connection between the second receiver and the source. In particular, the first receiver may be configured as a primary True Wireless Stereo (TWS) Bluetooth device and the second receiver may be configured as a secondary TWS Bluetooth device.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2020Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: Dishant Srivastava, Benjamin Campbell, Joel Linsky, Mayank Batra

Patent number: 11375578Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2019Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: Mayank Batra, Joel Linsky, Robin Heydon, Brian Redding, Laurence George Richardson
