Abstract

Examples of techniques for wireless communication are presented. In some examples, an apparatus comprises a wireless transceiver and a hardware processor configured to perform: receiving, from a host device, a first indication of a host device clock signal, the apparatus and the host device being coupled via a wired interconnect; determining, based on the first indication and a second indication of an endpoint device clock signal, a phase relationship between the host device clock signal and the endpoint device clock signal; determining, based at least on the phase relationship, a first time for transmitting a sensor data request to a peripheral device of a computer; transmitting, using the wireless transceiver, the sensor data request to the peripheral device at the first time; receiving, from the peripheral device, the sensor data; and providing the sensor data to the host device via the wired interconnect as input data to the computer.
