Systems and methods for wireless audio

A method of supporting a plurality of distinct audio signals, the method comprising:

• initializing a plurality of point-to-point wireless communication links between a master circuitry and a respectively corresponding plurality of slave circuitries;
• and
• generating a plurality of streams of packets respectively corresponding with the plurality of point-to-point wireless communication links for transmission through the master circuitry,
• wherein the plurality of streams of packets carry distinct sets of audio data;
• wherein the plurality of streams of packets respectively correspond with a plurality of distinct transport identifiers in corresponding headers of the plurality of streams of packets, the plurality of distinct transport identifiers being included in the corresponding headers by a Logic Link Control and Adaptation Layer Protocol (L2CAP) in compliance with the revision of the Bluetooth core specification;
• wherein the plurality of streams of packets respectively correspond with a plurality of audio distribution profiles implemented in an audio subsystem of an operating system;
• and
• wherein the plurality of audio distribution profiles are distinct Advanced Audio Distribution Profiles (A2DPs).

A system for simultaneously supporting a plurality of distinct audio signals in a piconet, comprising:

• a first circuitry operable to transmit packets in compliance with Basic Rate/Enhanced Data Rate (BR/EDR) transmission per a revision of the Bluetooth core specification;
• a plurality of second circuitries operable to receive packets in compliance with BR/EDR transmission per a revision of the Bluetooth core specification;
• and
• one or more processors having executable instructions stored in a non-transitory memory that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to:
• form a plurality of wireless connections between the second circuitries and the first circuitry;
• associate the second circuitries with a respectively corresponding plurality of distinct logical transport addresses;
• and
• generate a plurality of streams of packets carrying distinct sets of audio data, for transmission through the first circuitry and processing through the plurality of second circuitries,
• wherein the plurality of distinct logical transport addresses are included in corresponding headers of the plurality of streams of packets by a Logic Link Control and Adaptation Layer Protocol (L2CAP) in compliance with the revision of the Bluetooth core specification;
• and
• wherein the plurality of streams of packets respectively correspond with a plurality of distinct Advanced Audio Distribution Profiles (A2DPs).
