Abstract

A system for enabling data packets of variable size to be used on Bluetooth communication links over Universal Serial Bus (USB) is provided. A host device is configured to identify a target device with Bluetooth capabilities. The host device may determine a USB alternate setting for Bluetooth communication having data packets of variable sizes and establish a Bluetooth connection link with the target device having the determined USB alternate setting. Data packets are provided to the target device with variable sizes up to a maximum size associated with the alternate setting. In one implementation, the USB alternate setting is a new setting that is added to an existing Bluetooth SIG specification.
