RETRY MECHANISM FOR LOW ENERGY COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240275525 titled 'RETRY MECHANISM FOR LOW ENERGY COMMUNICATIONS

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a retry technique that reduces redundant transmit streams and retransmissions in scenarios where multiple devices are listening to the same audio stream. This technique aims to decrease power consumption and airtime usage by optimizing data communication between a source device and multiple sink devices.

  • **Key Features and Innovation:**
   - Utilizes a hybrid isochronous group to communicate data, consisting of broadcast isochronous streams and connected isochronous streams.
   - Broadcast isochronous streams transmit data from the source device to multiple sink devices.
   - Connected isochronous streams send acknowledgements of receiving the data back to the source device.
  • **Potential Applications:**
   - Wireless audio streaming systems
   - Multi-device communication networks
   - IoT devices with shared audio streams
  • **Problems Solved:**
   - Reducing redundant transmit streams
   - Minimizing retransmissions
   - Optimizing power consumption in multi-device scenarios
  • **Benefits:**
   - Improved efficiency in data transmission
   - Reduced power consumption
   - Enhanced airtime utilization
  • **Commercial Applications:**
   - "Optimizing Data Communication in Multi-Device Audio Streaming Systems"
  • **Questions about the Technology:**
   * **How does the retry technique optimize power consumption in multi-device scenarios?**
       - The retry technique reduces redundant transmit streams and retransmissions, leading to more efficient data communication and lower power consumption.
   * **What are the potential market implications of implementing this technology in IoT devices?**
       - By reducing redundant data transmissions, IoT devices can operate more efficiently and effectively, potentially expanding their market reach.
  • **Frequently Updated Research:**

Original Abstract Submitted

a retry technique reduces or eliminates redundant transmit streams and redundant retransmissions when multiple devices are listening to the same audio stream. the retry techniques reduce power consumption and reduce airtime usage. the retry technique includes communicating data using a hybrid isochronous group including a plurality of broadcast isochronous streams from a source device to a plurality of sink devices. the hybrid isochronous group includes, for each broadcast isochronous stream, a group of connected isochronous streams including a connected isochronous stream to the source device from each of the plurality of sink devices. the broadcast isochronous streams communicate the data and the connected isochronous streams communicate acknowledgements of receiving the data.
