Abstract: In some implementations, a wireless device schedules Bluetooth packets for transmission to a peripheral device over a Bluetooth link during an event, and obtains a number of sub-events (NSE) and a burst number (BN) for the event, the BN indicating the number of Bluetooth packets scheduled for transmission during the event, the NSE indicating the number of sub-events within the event. The wireless device obtains a minimum transmission attempt (minTx) value for the scheduled Bluetooth packets, the minTx value indicating a minimum number of transmission attempts allocated for each of the scheduled Bluetooth packets during the event. The wireless device determines flush points of the scheduled Bluetooth packets based at least in part on the minTx value, and transmits one or more of the scheduled Bluetooth packets over the Bluetooth link during the event based at least in part on the determined flush points.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an initiator device may transmit a protocol data unit (PDU) associated with a first stream during a first subevent within a portion of an event that is shared between the first stream and a second stream. Additionally, or alternatively, the initiator device may transmit a PDU associated with the second stream during a second subevent within the portion of the event that is shared between the first stream and the second stream. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: The apparatus receives a first PDU and a first CRC that is based on the first PDU. The first PDU is encrypted based on a first nonce. The apparatus decrypts the first PDU to obtain a first payload and a first cipher stream. The apparatus soft combines the decrypted first payload with a decrypted set of payloads. The set of payloads have been encrypted based on at least one nonce different than the first nonce. The apparatus generates a second CRC based on the soft combined decrypted payloads and based on the first cipher stream. The apparatus determines whether the generated second CRC for the soft combined decrypted payloads passes a CRC check against the first CRC.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first peripheral device may receive audio stream packets sniffed from an owner audio stream assigned to a second peripheral device paired with the first peripheral device. The first peripheral device may receive a synchronization message from the second peripheral device that includes an owner packet bitmap that identifies packets in the owner audio stream. The first peripheral device may identify missed packets that the first peripheral device missed from the owner audio stream, based on a result of a comparison of the owner packet bitmap and a sniffer packet bitmap that identifies sniffed audio stream packets. The first peripheral device may transmit a response message indicating the missed packets. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Systems and methods for Bluetooth voice link shadowing are disclosed. A primary device may receive an eSCO packet from host device over master slot(s) of an enhanced synchronization connection oriented (eSCO) window within an interval of a host piconet shared between the host and primary devices. A secondary device may sniff for the eSCO packet also over master slot(s) of the eSCO window. When the primary device successfully receives the eSCO packet from the host, it may unconditionally relay the packet to the secondary device. Alternatively, it may conditionally relay the packet when the secondary device does not successfully sniff the packet. When the secondary device successfully sniffs the eSCO packet from the host, it may unconditionally relay the packet to the primary device. Alternatively, it may conditionally relay the packet when the primary device does not successfully receive the packet.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for dynamic link recovery are described. Generally, a first device may transmit a first packet to a second device using a first set of transmission parameters, and may monitor for a feedback message from the second device. The first device may not receive a feedback message, and may therefore generate a second packet with the same sequence number as the first packet, and may introduce an error to the second packet that will trigger a feedback message from the second device, and may transmit the second packet to the second device using second transmission parameters (e.g., that are more robust than the first transmission parameters). The first device may monitor for and receive a feedback message from the second device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device may receive a first packet including a set of segments. A segment of the set of segments may include a cyclic redundancy check (CRC). The device may determine a corruption of one or more segments of the first packet, and process the one or more segments based on the corruption. The device may receive a second packet based on the corruption of the one or more segments of the first packet. The second packet may include one or more of the segments of the first packet. The device may process the one or more segments of the first packet received in the second packet, and transmit a positive acknowledgment indicating a reception of all segments of the set of segments based on the first packet and the second packet.
