Abstract
Embodiments of wireless audio systems and methods for wirelessly communicating audio information are disclosed herein. In one example, a wireless audio system includes a first wireless headphone and a second wireless headphone. The first wireless headphone is configured to receive, from an audio source, audio information using a first type of short-range wireless communication; in response to successfully receiving the audio information from the audio source, generate an error correcting code based on the audio information; and transmit an error correcting message including the error correcting code without transmitting the audio information. The second wireless headphone is configured to receive, from the audio source, the audio information using the first type of short-range wireless communication; receive, from the first wireless headphone, the error correcting message including the error correcting code; and in response to successfully receiving the audio information directly from the audio source or based on the error correcting code, transmit a first status message (STAT) to the first wireless headphone. The first wireless headphone is further configured to receive, from the …
