Abstract: The wireless earphone (1) comprises a housing (2) having a bud portion abutting an elongated stem portion. The bud portion is to fit within an ear. The bud portion has a primary sound outlet (5) at its far end that is to be inserted into an outer ear canal, and abuts the stem portion at its near end. A speaker driver (6) is inside the bud portion. Electronic circuitry (7,24) inside the housing (2) includes a wireless communications interface (4) to receive audio content over-the-air and in response provides an audio signal to the speaker driver. A rechargeable battery (3) as a power source for the electronic circuitry is located inside a cavity of the stem portion.

Abstract: A device may store a plurality of different coexistence profiles for different possible communication scenarios. The device may be initialized with a first one of the coexistence profiles, and may operate to dynamically switch to different ones of the coexistence profiles based on current conditions. Each coexistence profile may include a number of coexistence related parameters stored as a plurality of data structures. During device use, the device may dynamically select an appropriate coexistence profile based on the current communication conditions, such as Wi-Fi RSSI, Bluetooth RSSI, and/or the number of Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth devices with which communication is currently occurring, among other possible factors. The coexistence profile is selected to provide the best possible Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth output performance based on current conditions. The device may repeatedly dynamically select different coexistence profiles as conditions change, e.g., may select different coexistence profiles on a second or even millisecond basis.

Abstract: Providing supplemental audio signal processing for a Bluetooth audio link. A wireless device may establish a bi-directional wireless audio link with a Bluetooth device. An indication may be received that the Bluetooth device supports audio signal processing. A device type of the Bluetooth device may be determined. The wireless device may perform one or more audio signal processing operations on audio data transmitted to and/or received from the Bluetooth device via the bi-directional wireless audio link. The audio signal processing operations may be selected based on the device type of the Bluetooth device, and may be performed in addition to audio signal processing operations which may be performed on the audio data by the Bluetooth device.

Abstract: An electronic device is described. When this electronic device receives a command from another electronic device via a connection using an interface circuit on the electronic device, the electronic device provides the command from the interface circuit to a program module that executes on the portable electronic device, and the program module executes the command. The command may include: starting an application on the electronic device, turning off the application, and/or transitioning the application to a modified presentation operation mode. In this way, the other electronic device may remotely interact with the application on the electronic device.
