Abstract: A source communication device includes a source network clock to control timing of communicating with other devices in a network, a source streaming clock associated with processing of audio or video data, a time stamp generator to generate a time stamp that includes a source network clock value and a source streaming clock value, and a time stamp insertion mechanism that incorporates the time stamp into a data unit that is to be transmitted to one of the other devices in the network. A sink communication device includes a sink network clock synchronized with the source network clock, a sink streaming clock associated with processing of audio or video data, and a sink time stamp mechanism to compare a sink streaming clock value with the source streaming clock value, and adjust the sink streaming clock based on the comparison.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to frequency hopping (FH) communication systems, such as Bluetooth. In particular, it relates to a substantially automatic recovery procedure for re-establishing a previously lost link or connection between a master unit and a slave unit in a frequency hopping communications system. Some embodiments of the disclosed invention relates to methods for recovery of a previously lost link or connection between two Bluetooth units in a Bluetooth Sniff mode.

Abstract: A device for indicating a present status for a certain parameter, such as the charge of a battery. A parameter-sensing unit devised to sense a parameter value is connected to a control unit, devised to present an indicator area on a display. The indicator area is defined within an indicator frame, and an area portion of the indicator area is marked to represent a relative parameter level. A gyro sensor is connected to the control unit, wherein the control unit is devised to present the marked area portion as a bottom portion of the indicator area with a gyro-controlled upper border of the area portion which is maintained substantially horizontal. This way, the marked area portion will be experienced as a fluid, confined within a jar represented by the indicator frame.
