Abstract
Methods and systems for processing data are disclosed herein and may include compressing audio information on-chip within a Bluetooth® transceiver chip utilizing an audio codec implemented within the Bluetooth® transceiver chip. The audio codec may be a low complexity sub-band codec (SBC). An audio stream with the audio information may be generated outside the Bluetooth® transceiver chip. The audio stream may be generated via an audio/video distribution transport protocol (AVDTP) external to the Bluetooth® transceiver chip. A data channel may be established by the Bluetooth® transceiver chip between a Bluetooth® enabled device and a peer Bluetooth® device, for communicating the established audio stream to the Bluetooth® transceiver chip for compression. The data channel may be established utilizing a logical link control and adaptation protocol (L2CAP) and/or an advanced audio distribution profile (A2DP).
