Abstract
The present invention provides a transmission method for reducing radio resource overhead for a slave device of the Bluetooth system. The transmission method includes the steps of setting an active time slot window on a communication time comprising at least a reception time slot and transforming the reception time slots in the active time slot window into transmission time slots.
Claims18
A transmission method of reducing radio resource overhead for a slave device of a Bluetooth system, the transmission method comprising the steps of:
- receiving a function setup message generated by a master device of the Bluetooth system from the master device, and activating an active transmission function according to the function setup message;
- setting an active time slot window on a communication time comprising at least a reception time slot;
- and
- transforming the reception time slots in the active time slot window into transmission time slots;
- wherein the master device sets a corresponding active time slot window according to the function setup message, and transforms all corresponding transmission time slots in the corresponding active time slot window into corresponding reception time slots, to receive a Bluetooth packet from the slave device.
A communication device for reducing radio resource overhead for a slave device of a Bluetooth system, the communication device comprising:
- a central processing unit (CPU) for performing a program code;
- a storage device coupled to the central processing unit, for storing the program code;
- wherein the program code comprises:
- receiving a function setup message generated by a master device of the Bluetooth system from the master device, and activating an active transmission function according to the function setup message;
- setting an active time slot window on a communication time comprising at least a reception time slot;
- and
- transforming the reception time slots in the active time slot window into transmission time slots;
- wherein the master device sets a corresponding active time slot window according to the function setup message, and transforms corresponding transmission time slots in the corresponding active time slot window into corresponding reception time slots, to receive a Bluetooth packet from the slave device.
