Abstract

According to certain embodiments, a smart dongle is used for enabling wireless communication between a user's computer and a plurality of user's wireless computer peripheral devices, the smart dongle is configured to: (i) create a data frame for digital transmission based on an audio-type frame format of sample rate in a range of 44 kHz to 96 kHz; (ii) create a respective time slot in the data frame for each of a wireless mouse, a wireless keyboard and a wireless audio headset of the plurality of user's wireless peripheral devices that are paired to the smart dongle; (iii) transmit data from the wireless keyboard to the user's computer at a first latency that is less than a first time period in a range of 2 milliseconds to 3 milliseconds; (iv) transmit data from the wireless mouse to the user's computer at a second latency that is less than a second time period in a range of 2 milliseconds to 3 milliseconds; and (v) transmit data from the wireless audio headset to the user's computer at a third latency that is less than a third time period in a range of 10 milliseconds to 14 milliseconds.

Claims (15)

1. A smart dongle for enabling wireless communication between a user's computer and a plurality of user's wireless computer peripheral devices, the smart dongle comprising:

a memory;

a micro controller, the micro controller configured to:

create a data frame for digital transmission based on an audio-type frame format of sample rate in a range of 44 kHz to 96 kHz;

create a respective time slot in the data frame for each of a wireless mouse, a wireless keyboard and a wireless audio headset of the plurality of user's wireless peripheral devices that are paired to the smart dongle;

transmit data from the wireless keyboard to the user's computer at a first latency that is less than a first time period in a range of 2 milliseconds to 3 milliseconds;

transmit data from the wireless mouse to the user's computer at a second latency that is less than a second time period in a range of 2 milliseconds to 3 milliseconds; and

transmit data from the wireless audio headset to the user's computer at a third latency that is less than a third time period in a range of 10 milliseconds to 14 milliseconds.

2. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to dynamically assign time slots in the data frame to the plurality of user's wireless computer peripheral devices based on corresponding communication needs of the plurality of user's wireless computer peripheral devices with respect to the user's computer.

3. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to dynamically assign size of payloads in the data frame to the plurality of user's wireless computer peripheral devices based on corresponding communication needs of the plurality of user's wireless computer peripheral devices with respect to the user's computer.

4. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to minimize transmit slots and receive slots in the data frame by reducing payloads.

5. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to optimize timing between transmit and receive settings.

6. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to scan channels to reduce data packet loss.

7. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to transmit multiple types of data in small chunks of data packets.

8. The smart dongle of claim 1 , wherein the micro controller is configured to reconstruct the small chunks of data packets that are received into full data packets.
