| 20120108282 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR POWER CONTROL AND INTERFERENCE MANAGEMENT IN WIRELESS MICROPHONE TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS - A wireless microphone receiver is used to control transmission power and/or channel configuration of wireless microphones which communicate audio data to the wireless microphone receiver. In some embodiments the wireless microphone receiver searches for available channels, e.g., on a periodic or other basis. Based on wireless microphone receiver loading and interference considerations, channel availability may be determined and channel assignments are made. In some embodiments channel assignments are made based on wireless microphone battery status. Channel assignments to wireless microphones are communicated via a control channel. In addition to channel assignments, wireless microphone transmitter power can be controlled by the wireless microphone receiver. Commands to increase or decrease transmission power may occur as channel conditions change and/or on a recurring periodic basis. The rate of power control transmission may be relatively infrequent, e.g., a second apart in some embodiments, given that wireless microphones tend to be relatively stationary during use. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20120114134 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL AND TRAFFIC SIGNALING IN WIRELESS MICROPHONE TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS - Methods and apparatus for controlling the communications between a wireless microphone receiver and one or more wireless microphone transmitters are described.

In accordance with some other embodiment, a time division approach is used in which there are microphone transmit time periods and control signaling time periods. During the microphone transmit time periods, wireless microphone transmitters transmit audio data signals and, in some embodiment, control signals, to the wireless microphone receiver using separate frequency subbands within a frequency band. During control signaling time periods, the wireless microphone receiver transmits a control signal to a wireless microphone transmitter using the frequency band. | 05-10-2012 |

Similarly, the wireless peer group may monitor for timing signals received from devices that are not part of the wireless peer group. This monitoring burden may also be distributed (shared) among the devices in the peer group allowing for a greater sleep time for individual wireless devices, increasing the useful operation time of the individual wireless devices. | 05-31-2012 |
