Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices suspend and establish wireless communications connections. Methods include determining at least a first wireless communications device should be transitioned to a low power mode, and transitioning, using second logic, first logic of the first wireless communications device to the low power mode. The first logic implements a host stack of a wireless communications protocol, the second logic implements a controller stack of the wireless communications protocol, and the transitioning to the low power mode includes suspending a communications connection between the first wireless communications device and a second wireless communications device. Methods also include transitioning the first logic of the first wireless communications device to an active mode. The transitioning to the active mode reestablishes the communications connection between the first wireless communications device and a second wireless communications device.
