Abstract
This disclosure involves methods and systems for providing a host with a Bluetooth transceiver by way of a virtual USB connection to a PCI/PCIe bus in which the virtual USB connection is controlled by a modified OHCI. The Bluetooth transceiver is configured to send a status signal when there is data to be transferred to the host. The modified OHCI is configured to activate a list processor upon receipt of the status signal, such that the list processor controls the transfer of the data to be transferred to the host. After delivery of the data to the host, the modified OHCI is configured to inactivate the list processor. Further, the modified OHCI is configured to be compatible with standard USB software resident on the host.
