Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, devices, and machine readable mediums which provide for device discovery and P2P negotiation in infrastructure mode and then a transition to P2P mode. This allows devices to take advantage of the robustness and improved device discovery of infrastructure mode and the reduced latency of P2P mode.

Abstract: An apparatus to manage wireless communications may include an interface component to monitor channel load over a multiplicity of communications channels in an least one wireless communications band, and an interference management component to identify an active channel of a wireless local area network (WLAN) link, and identify a select channel from the multiplicity of communications channels that is orthogonal to the active channel of the WLAN link to transmit wireless data over a wireless personal area network (WPAN) link.

Abstract: There lies a challenge to develop a technique of effectively establishing a direct communication link between client devices in a communication network. In some implementations, an associated STA is a client device which is associated with a particular access point (AP). A non-associated STA is a client device which is not associated with the AP. A tunneled probe request may be transmitted by an associated STA through the AP to be broadcast to other associated STAs. In some implementations, an active scan may be combined with a tunneled probe request in order to establish a communication link between an associated STA and a non-associated STA.

Abstract: Systems and methods may provide for receiving unfiltered feedback information from a network interface component of a wireless display pipeline and receiving display region-specific information from a region update component of the wireless display pipeline. Additionally, a coding policy associated with wireless display content may be adjusted based on the unfiltered feedback information and the display region-specific information.

Abstract: Techniques related to encoding image content for transmission and display via a remote device with improved latency and efficiency are discussed. Such techniques may include skipping one or more of frame capture, encode, packetization, and transmission for a frame based on a skip indicator. One or more selective updates may be captured for the skipped frame and integrated into an encode of a subsequent non-skipped frame, which may be packetized and transmitted for to the remote device for presentment to a user.

Abstract: Technologies for location-dependent wireless speaker configuration include a mobile computing device wirelessly coupled to a plurality of speakers. The mobile computing device is configured to determine a location of and assign a location indicator to each of the speakers based on the determined locations. The location indicator identifies a location of each speaker relative to the other speakers such that the mobile computing device can generate an audio stream for each of the speakers based on the assigned location indicator and transmit each of the generated audio streams to a corresponding one of the speakers. Other embodiments are described and claimed herein.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose computer-program products for discovery of source or sink devices and their capabilities, prior to establishing a link such as a tunneled direct link setup (TDLS) link. The established link may be used for different applications such as Wi-Fi Display session with the desired source or sink device. The proposed computer-program product may also be applied to devices that utilize peer to peer communication.

In addition, the selected at least two modems are utilized concurrently for the wireless communication.

Abstract: Systems and methods for extending header fields are disclosed. The header field may be extended without changing the current size of the header. Reserve bits may be used to indicate the use of an extended header and the extended header may be store in a variety of locations within the frame, including the frame payload or pad bits.

Abstract: A higher frame rate (a multiple of the original display frame rate at the host) is exploited at a display sink device to opportunistically insert new decoded frames for display at the higher refresh rate of the sink. In other words, delayed frames arriving at the sink may get a chance to be displayed during the higher refresh rate cycle, thus offering a better (“smoother”) viewing experience along with improved interactivity or “responsiveness.

Abstract: A tile concept allows independent encoding and decoding of regions of the video frames combined with changes in the way that the coded tiles are packetized and queued for transport. After the coded tile network abstraction layer (NAL) units are packetized into MPEG-TS frames, the more important tile data is put in the network abstraction layer at the head of the queue while the less important data is inserted later in the queue. Audio can also be accorded high priority. For a given link bandwidth/latency environment, the important data is transmitted first and the less important data can be discarded at the transmitter with less impact on the user perceived quality.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques that can improve the generation of a decomposed multi-stream (DMS) by a host device of a video display system and the display of a DMS by a client device of the video display system. The techniques may apply different frame rates to different streams within a DMS, and the frame rates may depend on the content. For example, one stream within a DMS may comprise a sequence of full-motion video information, which may be rendered at a relatively high frame rate. However, another stream within the DMS may be associated with a background of the display, various graphic user interface control windows or elements, or a display window that includes non-video content (such as e-mail or a document). The second stream in the DMS may be rendered at a much slower frame rate than that used for the sequence of full-motion video information.
