Abstract:
The present invention relates to a Wireless Communication System (100) for enabling parts of a wireless stack (106) to physically run on multiple wireless devices, connected together by a wireless link (110). The system (100) comprises at least one peer device (102), having at least one application module (104) for at least one embedded device (112), a data routing entity (108) for communicating with the embedded device (112) and at least a part of one or more wireless stacks (106); the embedded device being configured to execute the at least one application (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d), on establishing a connection between the embedded device (112) and the peer device (102), wherein a data routing entity (114) in the embedded device (112) is configured to communicate with the peer device (102).
Abstract:
A system for reducing system latency, MIPS requirements, and power consumption in a wireless communications system includes part of an upper layer stack processing being performed on a controller to relieve a host processor of some data intensive operations. After the initial connection establishment phase in which the controller may retrieve certain information required for data transmission and stores the same locally, the data source may provide data to the controller, such as, without routing the data through the host. The host may be relieved of the data processing that needs to be done while the data is being transferred.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a system and a methodology for enhancing performance during wireless communications by reducing system latency, MIPS requirements and power consumption. The present invention discloses a system and method of wireless data communication in which part of upper layer stack processing is performed on a controller to relieve a host processor of some data intensive operations. After the initial connection establishment phase in which the controller retrieves certain information required for data transmission and stores the same locally, the data source provides data directly to the controller without routing the data through the host. The host is relieved of the data processing that needs to be done while the data is being transferred. Hence, the overall latency of the system is improved because of the optimal routing of data traffic. The host can even go to lower power modes while the controller is performing the data operations on behalf of the upper layer stack thereby saving power consumption of the overall system.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a system and method for remotely upgrading the firmware of a target device using wireless technology from the Bluetooth-enabled PC or Laptop to another Bluetooth device e.g., mouse, Keyboard, headset, mobile phone etc. Existing solutions either may not have upgrade capabilities, or may require the use of proprietary cables. An embodiment of the solution proposed here extends the “Connecting without cables” concept of Bluetooth to firmware upgrades. The system comprises a host device for sending the firmware required for upgradation; and a target device containing a first code and a second code wherein said first code identifies details of the firmware; and said second code identifies the completion of the download operation when the firmware is successfully downloaded.
