  • Patent number: 12003934
    Abstract: The description relates to a device (CTRL-DEV) for controlling a dual-mode Bluetooth low energy multimedia device (DM-BLE), the dual-mode BLE multimedia device comprising a first sound system (SS1) and a second sound system (SS2) which are arranged to simultaneously stream an input multimedia stream, the first and second sound systems being respectively associated with at least one first Bluetooth multimedia device (SPK1, SPK2, SPKN) and at least one Bluetooth multimedia device (BLE-SPK1, BLE-SPK2, BLE-SPKN). The description also refers to a dual-mode Bluetooth low energy multimedia device (DM-BLE?), a method, a computer program and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium.

  • Publication number: 20240114290
    Abstract: Various arrangements for managing a plurality of multimedia communication links in a point-to-multipoint Bluetooth network established between a source device and a plurality of sink devices are presented. An initial set of values of configuration parameters respectively related to each sink device of the plurality of sink devices can be determined. An initial value of a maximum bandwidth usage parameter related to the point-to-multipoint Bluetooth network can be determined. A new set of values of the configuration parameters different from the initial set of values can be determined. The new set of values may be determined to allocate bandwidth usage values between the plurality of multimedia communication links without exceeding the value of the maximum bandwidth usage parameter.

  • Patent number: 11889281
    Abstract: A method for managing a plurality of multimedia communication links in a point-to-multipoint Bluetooth network established between a source device and a plurality of sink devices, the method comprising: determining a new set of values of the configuration parameters upon: —receiving a request for adding a new sink device to the plurality of sink devices of the point-to-multipoint Bluetooth network, or —receiving a request for changing a value of a configuration parameter related to a sink device of the plurality of sink devices, or —determining an updated value of the maximum bandwidth usage parameter, wherein the new set of values is determined to allocate data rates between the plurality of multimedia communication links without exceeding the value of the maximum bandwidth usage parameter.
