Method and system for optimized architecture for bluetooth streaming audio applications
First Claim
1. A method for processing data, the method comprising:
- in a Bluetooth transceiver chip comprising at least one on-chip processor, wherein said at least one on-chip processor performs the function of;
compressing audio information received by said Bluetooth transceiver chip, wherein said compressing utilizes an on-chip audio codec implemented within said at least one on-chip processor; and
generating outside said Bluetooth transceiver chip an audio stream comprising said audio information, wherein said audio stream is generated via an audio/video distribution transport protocol (AVDTP) external to said Bluetooth transceiver chip.

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).
