Patent number: 9277415Abstract: A device implements multiple protocols that share overlapping resources. In some cases, a first operation, such as a scan, may have a resource conflict with a second operation associated with a different protocol. In some cases, determining grant normal priority level requests associated with the first operation over those at the normal priority level associated with the second operation may lead to operator-noticeable degradation in device performance. A protocol controller may request a selected portion of the first operation at a low priority level. Requesting the selected portion at the low priority level may allow the second operation to selectively override the portion of the first operation. The selective overriding of the first operation may allow for execution of the first and second operations without operator-noticeable performance degradation.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2014Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Erik John Rivard, Lih-Feng Tsaur, Shawn Shiliang Ding, Hsiao-Kai Wang, Shanshan Jiang, Daochun Liu

Patent number: 9179136Abstract: A 3D shutter glasses device, coupled via a wireless link to a 3D video display device, maintains a slave clock synchronized with a master clock in the display device. The clocks may comprise Bluetooth clocks. The shutter glasses receive 3D frame display information and time information referenced to the master clock that corresponds to when frames are displayed. The shutter glasses control opening and closing of left and right shutters utilizing slave clock time and the received information. The received display information comprises left, right and/or blank frame pattern information, a frame pattern time interval, a frame refresh rate and a time offset for delaying opening and/or closing of shutters. The time information indicates master clock time when frames are displayed. The shutter glasses and the display maintain synchronization when display and/or time information updates are skipped. The shutter glasses may transmit information to the display device.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2010Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Robert William Hulvey, Shawn Shiliang Ding

Patent number: 9042904Abstract: Techniques for localized dynamic channel allocation help meet the challenges of latency, memory size, and channel time optimization for wireless communication systems. As examples, advanced communication standards, such as the WiGig standard, may support wireless docking station capability and wireless streaming of high definition video content between transmitting and receiving stations, or engage in other very high throughput tasks. The techniques help to deliver the desired user experience in such an environment and support desired performance levels for latency and throughput while controlling memory footprint.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 2014Date of Patent: May 26, 2015Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Hongyu Xie, Srikanth Shubhakoti, Matthew James Fischer, Shawn Shiliang Ding, Gang Lu, Yuan Zhuang, Brima Ibrahim, Payam Torab Jahromi, Murat Mese

Publication number: 20130344809Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed in which a controller enables communication between a Bluetooth®-wireless-protocol unaware host and a Bluetooth®-wireless-protocol enabled remote device. As such, one embodiment of the invention is a controller, which comprises a controller transport to enable communication of data with a Bluetooth®-wireless-protocol unaware host device. The controller further comprises a controller application and a controller Bluetooth® stack to enable communication of the data using Bluetooth® wireless protocol. One embodiment can be seen as a method comprising the steps of receiving data from a Bluetooth®-wireless-protocol unaware host, converting the received data to a Bluetooth® wireless protocol, and transmitting the converted data to a Bluetooth®-wireless-protocol enabled remote device.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2012Publication date: December 26, 2013Applicant: BROADCOM CORPORATIONInventors: Joby Paily Aliyath, Amrit Swarup Devulapalli, Abishek Ambrose, Shawn Shiliang Ding

Publication number: 20130034061Abstract: A responder endpoint establishes a reverse direction communication channel from the responder to an initiator. To that end, the responder endpoint receives a reverse direction grant indicator and determines when primary data is not ready to be sent to the initiator. In response, the responder transmits to the initiator, within a predetermined response time for establishing the reverse direction communication channel, a continuation frame comprising a continuation indicator that indicates that reverse direction communication channel should persist. In one implementation, the continuation frame includes at least one control field including the continuation indicator, but no data payload field.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2011Publication date: February 7, 2013Applicant: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Hongyu Xie, Gang Lu, Yuan Zhuang, Brima Ibrahim, Shawn Shiliang Ding, Payam Torab Jahromi

Patent number: 8213864Abstract: A Bluetooth host in a normal mode is enabled to monitor activities at USB endpoints. A Bluetooth USB radio has one or more active Bluetooth connections with peer Bluetooth radios. When each of the Bluetooth connections is in sniff mode, the Bluetooth host enables cancellation of normal USB activities at USB endpoints to enter a low power mode. The Bluetooth connections are still alive while the Bluetooth host is in the low power mode. In the low power mode, the Bluetooth host is enabled not to poll the bulk endpoint and to poll a USB interrupt endpoint in extended intervals for Bluetooth data received from the Bluetooth USB radio. The Bluetooth host is enabled to switch from the low power mode to the normal mode to process the received Bluetooth data over the bulk endpoint when a specific HCI event is received over the interrupt endpoint.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2012Date of Patent: July 3, 2012Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Victor Zhodzishsky, Shawn Shiliang Ding

Publication number: 20110134231Abstract: A video viewing shutter device, which is wirelessly coupled to a multi-view video display device, generates a slave clock based on a master clock in the display device. The slave and master clocks may be Bluetooth clocks and maintain synchronization. The video viewing shutter device receives display information regarding display of independent video frames and time information referenced to the master clock. Time information corresponds to display time of independent frames. Both shutters open and/or close together, during frame display time, based on the slave clock, display information and/or master clock information. Display information may concern a pattern of independent frames and/or blank frames, pattern display time, refresh rate and/or a time offset. Master clock time information corresponds to frame display time. Shutter open and close times may be maintained when display and/or time information is not received. Information may be transmitted to the multi-view video display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2011Publication date: June 9, 2011Inventors: Robert W. Hulvey, Shawn Shiliang Ding
