Abstract
A device and method for reserving isochronous resources on a wireless network for connection set-up, where the wireless network includes an isochronous resource manager. The device and method include identifying a talker device and a listener device by a connection controller; acquiring, by the isochronous resource managers, a list of devices to be part of the connection; determining bandwidth required for connecting the talker device and the listener device by the isochronous resource manager, as a function of the list of devices to be part of the connection; and setting-up a multicast group including the talker device and the listener device if the bandwidth is available.
