Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Embodiments of the present application relate generally to electrical and electronic hardware, computer software, wired and wireless network communications, Bluetooth systems, RF systems, self-powered wireless devices, and consumer electronic (CE) devices. More specifically the present application relates to provision of networked based services to Bluetooth-enabled devices. The present application describes a very low-cost, multi-purpose, rapidly re-purposable Bluetooth node that may sit at the edge of a network and may be configured to allow a network system to dynamically add and remove different Bluetooth capabilities and allow for a much higher level of management of Bluetooth devices that are interacting with the network.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for providing network based services to Bluetooth-enabled devices, comprising: encapsulating host controller interface (HCI) packets on a Bluetooth (BT) host device; forwarding the encapsulated HCI packets over a network, to a compute engine in communication with the network; implementing from a non-transitory computer readable medium, profiles and applications contained in the encapsulated HCI packets on the compute engine; and forwarding HCI…
