Logic to cause transmission of an audio protocol data unit (PDU) during each of the one or more subevents. Logic to generate a feedback request frame as a feedback request PDU. Logic to cause transmission of the feedback request PDU on a feedback channel. Logic to scan the feedback channel for one or more feedback response PDUs transmitted in response to transmission of the feedback request PDU. Logic to modify the one or more parameters of transmission of the audio PDUs in a subsequent broadcast isochronous group (BIG) event based on the one or more feedback response PDUs. Logic to receive of an audio PDU during each of the one or more subevents. Logic to receive the feedback request PDU on a feedback channel. Logic to generate a feedback response PDU in response. And logic to cause transmission of the feedback response PDU on the feedback channel.

Methods and arrangements for a broadcast audio receiver feedback channel

This disclosure describes methods, apparatus, and systems related to enhanced Bluetooth triggering of device Wi-Fi radios. A device may determine a first Bluetooth data packet including transport data and an indication of a Wi-Fi service discovery, the transport data including a first sub-field and a second sub-field, the first sub-field indicating a length of the second sub-field, and the second sub-field indicating one or more Wi-Fi services supported by the device. A Bluetooth radio of the device may send the first Bluetooth data packet including an indication of a Wi-Fi service. The device may identify a second Bluetooth data packet received by the Bluetooth radio from a second device, the second Bluetooth data packet indicating that the Wi-Fi service is supported by the second device. The device may use a Wi-Fi radio to send one or more Wi-Fi frames associated with the Wi-Fi service to the second device.

Enhanced Bluetooth mechanism for triggering Wi-Fi radios

Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for a wireless communication device switching between lower energy and higher energy wireless communication techniques are disclosed. The wireless communication device includes processing circuitry to: receive a packet in accordance with a lower energy wireless peer-to-peer (P2P) network communication technique from a service provider wireless device, wherein the packet indicates one or more services provided by the service provider wireless device. The processing circuitry may be further to: determine to switch to a higher energy wireless P2P communication technique to communicate with the service provider wireless device based on a determination that a target service is provided by the service provider wireless device. The processing circuitry may be further to: perform a connectivity setup with the provider wireless device to use the target service in accordance with the higher energy wireless P2P communication technique.

Method, apparatus, and computer readable medium for switching between lower energy and higher energy wireless communication techniques

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to improve Bluetooth low energy streaming connection efficiency are disclosed herein. An example method includes accessing a request received at a first device from a second device, the request requesting set up of an isochronous link between the first device and the second device, the request including a configuration identifier. Whether the configuration identifier identifies a configuration stored at the first device is determined. In response to determining that the configuration identifier identifies the configuration stored at the first device, the isochronous link using the stored configuration.

Methods and apparatus to improve Bluetooth low energy streaming connection efficiency

Disclosed herein are techniques to enable remote discovery of connectivity capabilities and remote connection of devices in a power efficient manner. In particular, discovery and connection requests for connectivity capabilities utilizing a first radio may be communicated using a second radio, the second radio utilizing a lower amount of power relative to the first radio. For example, connectivity capabilities such as Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, WiGig, Zigbee can be discovered and connection request communicated using a Bluetooth radio.

Bluetooth assisted remote discovery and wakeup

Embodiments of the present disclosure include methods, devices and systems for Bluetooth low energy discovery in wireless application service platforms. One example embodiment relates to transmitting, by a first terminal including a radio, a request message for seeking service, receiving, by a peer terminal, the request message for seeking service, transmitting to the first terminal, by the peer terminal, a response frame advertising service including service provider information.

Methods, systems, and devices for bluetooth low energy discovery

This disclosure describes an enhanced Bluetooth channel establishment. A device may identify an isochronous connection oriented (ICO) command for a Bluetooth communication. The device may send a first ICO start command from a first link layer (LL) to a second LL, and the first LL may receive a first ICO start confirmation from the second LL. The first LL may then send a second ICO start command to a third LL, and the first LL may receive a second ICO start confirmation from the third LL. A third ICO start confirmation may then be sent. The device may also have an ICO request and response exchange between LL's.

Enhanced bluetooth channel establishment

The disclosure relates to a method, system and apparatus for extending Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology to conserve energy in multi-mode wireless devices. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a device comprising a first module configured for radio communication at a non-BLE communication mode; a second module to communicate at a BLE communication mode; and a controller for controlling the first and the second communication modules, the controller configured to direct the BLE communication mode to at least one of advertise or scan for information relating to the non-BLE communication mode.
