  • Publication number: 20240032122
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first peripheral device may establish, with a user equipment (UE), a first connected isochronous stream (CIS), a second CIS, and a control channel for the first CIS and the second CIS, where the first peripheral device is configured to output audio signals for the first CIS and handle feedback for the first CIS. The first peripheral device may transmit, to a second peripheral device paired with the first peripheral device, an indication that the second peripheral device is to output audio signals for the second CIS and handle feedback for the second CIS. The first peripheral device may receive the first CIS, while maintaining the control channel for the first CIS and the second CIS. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • Patent number: 11477600
    Abstract: A device includes one or more processors configured to execute instructions to obtain, at a first audio output device, first spatial audio data and a first reference time associated, and to cause the first reference time and data representing at least a portion of the first spatial audio data to be transmitted from the first audio output device. The instructions further cause the one or more processors to receive, at the first audio output device from a second audio output device, second spatial audio data and a second reference time. The instructions further cause the one or more processors to, based on the first reference time and the second reference time, time-align the first spatial audio data and the second spatial audio data to generate combined audio data representing a three-dimensional (3D) sound field and to generate audio output based on the combined audio data.

  • Patent number: 11375574
    Abstract: 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.

  • Patent number: 11115811
    Abstract: Two devices (e.g., two wireless Bluetooth earbuds) may exchange device address information (e.g., Bluetooth address information) and may identify a primary address. When either of the devices connect to a source device (e.g., a phone), the primary address may be used by the connecting device such that the pair of devices appear as a single device (e.g., a Bluetooth-pairable device) to the source device, regardless of the device connecting to the source device as the primary device. The primary device may then send identity information (e.g., that has been exchanged with the secondary device) to the source device, such that the source device may connect to either of the two devices. Further, once a primary device connects to the source device, the primary device may transmit, to the secondary device, connection information such that the secondary device may connect to the source device and operate in the primary role.

  • Patent number: 10779210
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. One method may include determining that a quality condition of a primary Bluetooth-enabled device is lower than a quality condition of a secondary Bluetooth-enabled device. The primary Bluetooth-enabled device may transmit, to the secondary Bluetooth-enabled device, a handover request message based on the determining. The handover request message may include a subset of connection information associated with a connection between the primary Bluetooth-enabled device and a device in wireless communications with the primary Bluetooth-enabled device. The primary Bluetooth-enabled device may receive, from the secondary Bluetooth-enabled device, a handover response message based on the handover request message. As a result, the primary Bluetooth-enabled device may handover, to the secondary Bluetooth-enabled device, at least one logical transport channel of the set of logical transport channels based on the handover response message.

  • Publication number: 20160309258
    Abstract: A controller for determining the location of speakers in a system of speakers configured to play out audio signals received according to a wireless communications protocol. The controller configured is to, for each speaker of the system of speakers, transmit a signal to that speaker comprising an indication of a playout time for playing out an identification sound signal comprising the identification data of that speaker. The controller is configured to receive data indicative of a played out identification sound signal from each speaker as received at least two listening locations, wherein relative positional information about the at least two listening locations is known. For each of the at least two listening locations, the controller determines the locations of the speakers of the speaker system relative to the position of one of the at least two listening locations.
