chapter the bluetooth le audio architecture |
multiple devices which are not configured as members of a coordinated set can still be used |
in gaf as an ad hoc set in this case they need to be individually configured by the |
application it means that they do not benefit from the locking f eature of csis which could |
result in different connections to members of the ad hoc set |
cap the common audio profile introduces the commander role which brings together |
the features which can be used for remot e control of bluetooth le audio streams the |
commander is a major change from anything weve seen in previous bluetooth specifications |
allowing the design of ubiquitous distributed remote control for audio it is particularly useful |
for encrypted broad casts where it provides a way to convert broadcast transmissions into a |
private listening experience well explore that in more detail in chapter |
cap uses csis and csip to tie devices together and ensure that procedures are applied to |
both it also introduces the concept of context type s and content control ids which allow |
applications to make decisions about stream setup and control based on a knowledge of the |
controlling devices the use cases for the audio data and which applications are available this |
is used to inform transitions between different streams whether that is prompted by different |
applications on a device or a request from a different device for an audio connection a lot of |
this functionality is based on new concepts which have b een introduced in bluetooth le |
audio these are explained in more detail in chapter |
top level profiles |
finally on top of the gaf specifications we have top level profiles which provide additional |
requirements for specific audio use cases the first of these are the hearing access profile |
and service hap and has which cover applications for the hearing aid ecosystem the |
telephony and media audio profile tmap which specif ies the use of higher quality codec |
settings and more complex media and telephony control and the public broadcast profile |
pbp which helps users select globally interoperable broadcast streams public broadcast |
profile is anomalous in having no accompanying service but thats a consequence of the nature |
of broadcasts where there is no connection for any client server interaction |
the low complexity communications codec lc |
although not a part of the gaf the bluetooth le audio releases include a new efficient |
codec called lc which is the mandated codec for bluetooth le audio streams this |
provides excellent performance for telephony speech wideband and super wideband spe ech |
and high quality audio and is the mandated codec within bap every bluetooth le audio |
product has to support the lc codec to ensure interoperability but additional and proprietary |
codecs can be added if manufacturers require lc encodes audio into single streams so |
there is a corresponding minimalist tmas specification which is included within the tmap |
specification |
section talking about bluetooth le audio |
stereo is encoded as separate left and right streams this means that gaf can configure a |
unicast stream to an earbud to carry only the audio which that earbud requires a broadcast |
transmitter sending music would normally include bot h left and right audio streams in its |
broadcast individual devices would only need to receive and decode the data relevant to the |
stream which they want to render |
talking about bluetooth le audio |
writing over twenty specification s has generated a lot of new abbreviations including ones |
for the name of each individual specification over time the working groups have come up |
with different ways of referring to these sometimes as acronyms where you pronounce them |
as words sometimes as initialisms w here you just pronounce the letters and occasionally as |
a mix of both the following table captures the current pronunciations of the most commonly |
used ones as a help to anyone talking about bluetooth le audio |
acronyms |
