System and method for streaming data between a portable server computing device and a client computing device
View Patent ↗A system and a method for streaming data between a portable server computing device and a client computing device are provided. The method includes transmitting an RF signal having streaming data from a first audio file from the portable server computing device to a client computing device. The method further includes emitting sound corresponding to the streaming data in the RF signal from the client computing device, in response to the client computing device receiving the RF signal.
1. A method for streaming data between a portable server computing device and a client computing device, comprising:
transmitting a first RF signal from the client computing device having a request message requesting a digital audio service;
transmitting a second RF signal from the portable server computing device, in response to the portable server computing device receiving the first RF signal, the second RF signal having an acknowledgement message indicating that the portable server computing device is configured to provide the digital audio service;
transmitting a third RF signal from the portable server computing device having streaming data from a first audio file; and
emitting sound corresponding to the streaming data in the third RF signal from the client computing device, in response to the client computing device receiving the third RF signal, wherein the second RF signal has both the acknowledgement message indicating that the portable server computing device is configured to provide the digital audio service and data associated with a plurality of audio files.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data associated with the plurality of audio files comprises textual data associated with the plurality of audio files.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the textual data associated with the plurality of audio files comprises a plurality of audio file names.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying at least a portion of the data associated with the plurality of audio files on a display device of the client computing device, in response to the client computing device receiving the second RF signal.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
selecting a first audio file name from the data associated with the plurality of audio flies to obtain a first selected audio file name associated with the first audio file, utilizing the client computing device;
transmitting a fourth RF signal from the client computing device to the portable server computing device having the first selected audio file name.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first RF signal utilizes one of a Wi-Fi wireless protocol, a Bluetooth wireless protocol, and a WiMax wireless protocol.
7. A system for streaming data, comprising:
a client computing device configured to transmit a first RF signal having a request message requesting a digital audio service;
a portable server computing device configured to transmit a second RF signal, in response to the portable server computing device receiving the first RF signal, the second RF signal having an acknowledgement message indicating that the portable sever computing device is configured to provide the digital audio service;
the portable server computing device further configured to transmit a third RF signal having streaming data from a first audio file; and
the client computing device further configured to emit sound corresponding to the streaming data in the third RF signal, in response to the client computing device receiving the third RF signal, wherein the second RF signal has both the acknowledgement message indicating that the portable server computing device is configured to provide the digital audio service and data associated with a plurality of audio files.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the data associated with the plurality of audio files comprises textual data associated with the plurality of audio files.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the textual data associated with the plurality of audio files comprises a plurality of audio file names.
10. The system of claim 7 wherein the client computer device a further configured to display at least a portion of the data associated with the plurality of audio files on a display device, in response to the client computing device receiving the second RF signal.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the client computing device is further configured to select a first audio file name from the data associated with the plurality of audio files to obtain a first selected audio file name associated with the first audio file, the client computing device further configured to transmit a fourth RF signal to the portable sever computing device having the first selected audio file name.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein the first RF signal utilizes one of a Wi-Fi wireless protocol, a Bluetooth wireless protocol, and a WiMax wireless protocol.
