  • Method of and apparatus for optimizing a minimum turn around time during an infrared data communication
    Patent number: 6704516
    Abstract: A method of and apparatus for optimizing a minimum turn around time (MTAT) between (a) a reception by a first device of a first infrared data communication (IRDC) frame sent from a second device and (b) a transmission by the first device of a second IRDC frame to the second device. The MTAT value received from the second device is loaded into a storage device. The first IRDC frame from the second device is received, and a counter of the first device either resets upon reception of each of the plurality of characters of the first IRDC frame or increments when none of the plurality of characters are received. The first device transmits the second IRDC frame to the second device when the counter value reaches the MTAT value.
