Abstract:
A method of transmitting content to a wireless display device is disclosed. The method may include receiving multimedia data, encoding the multimedia data, and writing encoded multimedia data into a first predetermined memory location of a shared memory. Further, the method may include encapsulating the encoded multimedia data and writing encapsulation data into a second predetermined memory location of the shared memory. The method may also include calculating error control encoding and writing the error control encoding into a third predetermined memory location of the shared memory. Further, the method may include transmitting the encoded multimedia data, the encapsulation data, and the error control encoding to the wireless display device.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure provide the concept of a wireless docking profile, which may be standardized across a number of vendors, such that a common standard defining minimum sets of peripherals can be shared by dockees and docking hosts to simplify connection setup and negotiation. Further aspects of the disclosure provide a docking procedure that may be utilized to establish a docking connection between the dockee and the docking host to utilize such a docking profile. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
In general, this disclosure describes techniques for exchanging information between a plurality of encoder modules and a multiplex module to combine segments of data from the encoder modules with an improved overall quality. In particular, the encoder modules associate their respective segments of data with quality and rate information and send at least the quality and rate information associated with the segments of data to the multiplex module. The multiplex module analyzes the quality and rate information to determine whether the segments of data that encoder modules desire to include in the current superframe fit within the available bandwidth of a transmission channel. If the multiplex module determines the plurality of segments of data do not fit within the available bandwidth, the multiplex module selects one or more of the segments to be resized based on the quality and rate information received from the encoder modules.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are disclosed relating to the use and performance of a wireless charger, such as one that utilizes inductive coupling between a primary coil at the charger and a secondary coil at a mobile device that lands on the charger. In particular, the wireless charger is implemented in a wireless docking environment, where the mobile device docks with a docking host. In one example, the wireless charger is integrated as a unit with the wireless docking host. In another example, the wireless charger is a peripheral in the wireless docking environment managed by the docking host.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure enable a persistent docking procedure that, once a persistent docking environment has been established, can simplify the future establishment of a docking environment between the dockee and docking host. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure provide frameworks and related mechanisms to provide for Universal Serial Bus/Internet Protocol (USB/IP) data transfer utilizing WiGig Serial Extension (WSE). The frameworks and related mechanisms (1) adapt USB transfers to variations in wireless channel conditions by making suitable adjustments to the USB transfers, e.g., by adjusting the number of outstanding USB transfers and their sizes at the core driver level; (2) administer the admission of USB devices/endpoints based on channel condition and USB requirements by translating USB requirement parameters into 802.11 admission control parameters; and (3) manage multiple USB/IP endpoint sessions with differential treatments above IP using SCTP streams instead of TCP or UDP.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure enable a docking host that manages a docking environment to establish an initial connection between the docking host and one or more wireless peripheral devices to perform functionality determination of the wireless peripherals devices. The docking host may store the results of the functionality and, upon receiving a request from a dockee to access the functionality that the docking host may provide, will update the results. In one aspect of the disclosed approach, the docking host may determine the current state of the wireless peripheral devices before advertising any functionality information to the dockee. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
An extensible hub is disclosed for providing multi-hop wireless communication among universal serial bus (USB) devices, for example, utilizing a WiGig Serial Extension (WSE) air interface. The extensible hub may include a device protocol adaptation layer (PAL), as well as a host PAL, and further a bridge for providing a data flow path between the device and host PALs. The bridge may be configured to distinguish between request messages and response messages in accordance with a header on those messages. Further, the extensible hub may include virtual ports and may map device handles and endpoint handles to provide for routing of messages to the correct downstream devices in a multi-hop network tree.
