Abstract
According to various aspects, an isochronous channel may include an update slot in which a source device may schedule a transmission to broadcast control information to one or more sink devices. As such, a sink device may initially listen to a periodic advertising stream to receive synchronization information to acquire or re-acquire the isochronous channel and subsequently synchronize to the isochronous channel according to state information that the source device conveys in the update slot.
