==SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS FOR EXTENDED PERSONAL AREA NETWORK (XPAN) COVERAGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240284301 titled 'SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS FOR EXTENDED PERSONAL AREA NETWORK (XPAN) COVERAGE

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on extending the range of a personal audio device connected to a personal wireless communication device.

* Personal audio devices can connect to personal wireless communication devices via an access point (AP) to stream audio or voice calls when the direct link quality is below a threshold.
* To reduce latency and packet loss during transitions between devices or multiple APs, the personal audio device can establish a new wireless communication connection before breaking the current one.

Potential Applications:
- Enhancing the range and connectivity of personal audio devices in wireless communication setups.
- Improving the quality of audio streaming and voice calls by utilizing access points for better connectivity.

Problems Solved:
- Addressing issues related to limited range and connectivity between personal audio devices and wireless communication devices.
- Minimizing latency and packet loss during transitions between devices or access points.

Benefits:
- Enhanced range and connectivity for personal audio devices.
- Improved audio streaming and voice call quality.
- Reduced latency and packet loss during transitions.

Commercial Applications:
The technology can be applied in the development of wireless headphones, earbuds, and other personal audio devices to improve connectivity and audio quality, catering to consumers looking for seamless wireless communication experiences.

Questions about the Technology:
1. How does this technology improve the connectivity of personal audio devices in wireless communication setups?
2. What are the potential benefits of using access points to extend the range of personal audio devices in wireless communication systems?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. techniques described herein provide for extending the range of a personal audio device connected to a personal wireless communication device via enabling the personal audio device to connect to and communicate with the personal wireless communication device via an access point (ap). an ap may have a larger range than a personal wireless communication device, and accordingly, an ap may be used to stream audio or voice calls to the personal audio device when the direct link quality between the personal audio device and the personal wireless communication device is below a threshold. to reduce latency and packet loss associated with transitions between communicating with the personal wireless communication device directly and via the ap or transitions between multiple aps, the personal audio device may be configured to establish a new wireless communication connection before breaking a current wireless communication connection.
