  • Patent number: 10129839
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and devices are described for synchronizing timing of wireless streaming transmissions to multiple sink devices. A source device may identify timing information associated with a common timing source, e.g., a media timing source at Multimedia layer or a Wi-Fi timing source, and send the timing information to the sink devices. The sink devices may receive the timing information and determine a composite timing delay, e.g., a wireless transmission link delay, an internal interface link delay, or combinations thereof. The source device may stream the content to the sink devices which may use a locally adjusted timing signal to synchronize the presentation of the content.

  • Patent number: 9749682
    Abstract: Techniques are described for tunneling high definition multimedia interface (HDMI) data over a wireless connection from an HDMI-capable source device to a client device that is physically connected to an HDMI-capable sink device via an HDMI connector. The techniques enable wireless transmission of HDMI data without video compression by using an encapsulation scheme that maps HDMI audio and video channels into a transport stream format and maps HDMI side channels into an IP datagram for transmission over the wireless connection. The source device may operate as an HDMI controller and perform HDMI-based data, control, and security processing required for HDMI connectivity with the sink device via the client device. The client device, therefore, may be a “dummy” client device that does not perform HDMI-based processing, but acts as a wireless HDMI bridge to pass the HDMI data between the source device and the sink device.

  • Patent number: 9723610
    Abstract: A device for transmitting data to a network includes a source subsystem and a communication subsystem. The source subsystem generates a first data packet that includes first timing information that is based on a time that the first data packet is generated. The first timing information is generated responsive to a first timing generator included in the source subsystem. The communication subsystem is coupled to the source subsystem via one or more abstraction layers and is configured to modify the first data packet to generate a modified data packet for transmission to the network. The modified data packet includes the first timing information and second timing information that is based on a time that the modified data packed is transmitted. The communications subsystem includes a second timing generator that is linked to the first timing generator through the one or more abstraction layers to generate the second timing information.

  • Patent number: 9668204
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a collaborative demand-based dual-mode Wi-Fi network control framework that may optimize wireless power and performance on wireless devices that may support multiple Wi-Fi networking technologies. In particular, a high performance Wi-Fi link may be reserved to services or applications that have substantial quality of service (QoS) requirements and conventional Wi-Fi links may be utilized to transfer data for services or applications that have typical performance requirements. For example, bandwidth requirements associated with forward traffic may be measured according to sizes and latency requirements associated with the forward traffic and the appropriate Wi-Fi networking mode may be controlled according to the forward traffic bandwidth requirements in combination with the average bandwidth and average retransmission rate associated with the conventional Wi-Fi links, among other factors.
