Abstract: A multi-member Bluetooth device for communicating data with a remote Bluetooth device is disclosed including: a main Bluetooth circuit and an auxiliary Bluetooth circuit. In the period during which the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit operates at a sniffing mode, the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit sniffs packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device and the main Bluetooth circuit receives packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device. But the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit switches from the sniffing mode to a relay mode if the data type of packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device changes. In the period during which the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit operates at the relay mode, the main Bluetooth circuit receives packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device and forwards the received packets to the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit, and the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit does not sniff packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device.

Abstract: A multi-member Bluetooth device for communicating data with a remote Bluetooth device is disclosed including: a main Bluetooth circuit and an auxiliary Bluetooth circuit. In the period during which the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit operates at a relay mode, the main Bluetooth circuit receives packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device and forwards the received packets to the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit; the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit does not sniff packets issued from the remote Bluetooth device, but will switch to a sniffing mode if a signal reception quality indicator of the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit is superior to a predetermined indicator value. In the period during which the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit operates at the sniffing mode, the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit sniffs packets issued from the remote Bluetooth device and the main Bluetooth circuit receives packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device.

Abstract: An auxiliary Bluetooth circuit for use in a multi-member Bluetooth device is disclosed including: a second Bluetooth communication circuit, a second packet parsing circuit, and a second control circuit. In a period during which the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit operates at a sniffing mode, the main Bluetooth circuit receives packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device, while the second control circuit utilizes the second Bluetooth communication circuit to sniff packets issued from the remote Bluetooth device. In a situation of that a throughput of packets sniffed by the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit is lower than a predetermined threshold, the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit switches from the sniffing mode to a relay mode. In a period during which the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit operates at the relay mode, the second control circuit utilizes the second Bluetooth communication circuit to receive packets forwarded from the main Bluetooth circuit.

Abstract: A multi-member Bluetooth device includes: a main Bluetooth circuit capable of bidirectionally communicating with a remote Bluetooth device through a first Bluetooth communication circuit; and an auxiliary Bluetooth circuit capable of communicating with the main Bluetooth circuit through a data transmission circuit. While the main Bluetooth circuit utilizes the first Bluetooth communication circuit to communicate with the remote Bluetooth device, the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit utilizes a second Bluetooth communication circuit to sniff packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device. When detected that the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit has missed packets transmitted from the remote Bluetooth device, the main Bluetooth circuit transmits missing packets of the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit to the auxiliary Bluetooth circuit through the data transmission circuit.
