Abstract
Aspects of a method and system for a distributed Bluetooth® Host Architecture may include combining a single main Bluetooth® host with subsidiary Bluetooth® hosts to form a distributed Bluetooth® processing entity that operates as a single Bluetooth® host for a Bluetooth® host controller. An active data connection may be handed over between the main Bluetooth® host and the subsidiary Bluetooth® hosts, where the active data connection may be between the Bluetooth® host controller and the distributed Bluetooth® entity. The active data connection may be an Asynchronous connection-less (ACL) link or a Synchronous Connection-Oriented (SCO) link. Layers of a protocol stack of the main Bluetooth® host may be synchronized with one or more of the subsidiary Bluetooth® hosts to achieve hand over.
