Prioritization of isochronous streams in multi-protocol system

A wireless communications system comprising:

• a first wireless communications device comprising:
• a transmitter circuit;
• and
• a controller circuit configured to cause the transmitter circuit to transmit, using an isochronous physical channel, at least one subevent for each isochronous stream of a plurality of isochronous streams of an isochronous group based on a historical retransmission rate for each isochronous stream of the plurality of isochronous streams,
• wherein at least one isochronous stream of the plurality of isochronous streams includes fewer than a maximum number of subevents in a corresponding isochronous event of an isochronous group event,
• wherein the at least one subevent is adjacently placed in the isochronous group event and all isochronous events of the isochronous group event are adjacently placed in an isochronous interval,
• wherein the isochronous group event is associated with a first wireless communications protocol and all subevents of the isochronous group event are placed contiguously in the isochronous interval before any event of a second wireless communications protocol in the isochronous interval, and
• wherein communications according to the second wireless communications protocol are present in the isochronous interval and are uninterrupted by subevents of the isochronous group event.

A method for communicating between devices using a wireless communications interface, the method comprising:

• receiving at least one subevent for each isochronous stream of a plurality of isochronous streams of an isochronous group in an order based on a historical retransmission rate for each isochronous stream of the plurality of isochronous streams,
• wherein at least one isochronous stream of the plurality of isochronous streams includes fewer than a maximum number of subevents in a corresponding isochronous event of an isochronous group event,
• wherein the at least one subevent is adjacently placed in the isochronous group event and all isochronous events of the isochronous group event are adjacently placed in an isochronous interval,
• wherein the isochronous group event is associated with a first wireless communications protocol and all subevents of the isochronous group event are placed contiguously in the isochronous interval before any event of a second wireless communications protocol in the isochronous interval, and
• wherein communications according to the second wireless communications protocol are present in the isochronous interval and are uninterrupted by subevents of the isochronous group event.
