Wireless Stereo Headset with Bidirectional Diversity - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240267164 titled 'Wireless Stereo Headset with Bidirectional Diversity
Simplified Explanation:
This patent application describes a communication protocol that allows a headset and a host device to transmit right and left audio data on separate channels. Each earpiece establishes an independent channel to the host device, with an additional channel between the earpieces. The earpieces monitor both their own channel and the other earpiece's channel to the host device. This setup enables one earpiece to acknowledge correctly received packets to the host device, avoiding retransmissions. The earpieces can also exchange voice content picked up from the environment to send to the host device, providing path diversity in both the uplink and downlink.
- Each earpiece establishes independent channels to the host device
- Earpieces monitor each other's channels to the host device
- One earpiece can acknowledge correctly received packets to avoid retransmissions
- Earpieces can exchange picked-up voice content for transmission to the host device
- Provides path diversity in both uplink and downlink communication
Potential Applications:
This technology can be applied in wireless communication systems, particularly in headsets and host devices where path diversity is crucial for maintaining a reliable connection and minimizing retransmissions.
Problems Solved:
This technology addresses the issues of signal interference, packet loss, and retransmissions in wireless audio communication systems by providing path diversity and efficient data transmission.
Benefits:
The benefits of this technology include improved audio quality, reduced latency, increased reliability, and enhanced overall performance of wireless audio communication systems.
Commercial Applications:
This technology can be utilized in various commercial applications such as wireless headphones, gaming headsets, conference call systems, and other audio communication devices where high-quality audio transmission is essential for user experience.
Prior Art:
Prior art related to this technology may include research on path diversity in wireless communication systems, audio data transmission protocols, and methods for reducing packet loss in wireless audio devices.
Frequently Updated Research:
Researchers may be conducting studies on optimizing path diversity algorithms, enhancing audio data transmission efficiency, and improving the overall performance of wireless audio communication systems.
Questions about the Technology:
1. How does this communication protocol improve the reliability of audio data transmission in wireless headsets? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this protocol in different types of host devices and earpieces?
Original Abstract Submitted
a communication protocol provides diversity in ul and dl between a headset and a host device that transmits right and left audio data on separate channels. each ear piece establishes an independent channel to the host device, and there is another channel between them. each ear piece monitors not only its own channel to the host, but also the other ear piece's channel to the host. one ear piece may acknowledge the host device for a correctly received packet, which the other ear piece missed, on the other ear piece's channel to the host device, avoiding retransmissions. the eavesdropped data is provided to the other ear piece on the shared channel, providing for path diversity in dl. the ear pieces may exchange picked-up voice content to send to the host device, providing for path diversity in ul.
