Abstract
A first and second host device are configured to communicate data via a data channel (e.g., a half-duplex channel). A control channel (e.g., a full-duplex channel) may be used to arbitrate the dynamic assignment of the respective roles of master and slave to the first and second host devices. The arbitration procedure may include transmitting a first message from the first host device to the second host device that specifies information for allocating one or more time slots to the first host device, and transmitting a second message from the second host device to the first host device that specifies information for allocating one or more time slots to the second host device. At each of the first and second host devices, a communication schedule for the data channel may be determined based on a rule set, the first message and the second message.
