Abstract

According to one disclosed embodiment, a method for efficiently scheduling short-range wireless data transmissions is described. This method may include providing beacon intervals for timed data transmission, receiving a plurality of requests for data, delaying allocation of any of the plurality of requests for data into one of the beacon intervals until a number of admitted requests for data exceeds a threshold. The method may also include allocating timeslots for pseudo-static service periods before allocating timeslots for non-pseudo static service periods and allocating timeslots for non-pseudo static service periods in descending order of relative time urgency.
