COMBINED BLUETOOTH/ALTERNATE RADIO ENVIRONMENT WITH CRITERION FOR REPORTING A CONDITION OF THE ALTERNATE RADIO DEFINED IN A PHYSICAL ABSTRACTION LAYER ASSOCIATED WITH THE ALTERNATE RADIO

摘要

In a combined Bluetooth/alternate radio environment, an intermediate level software layer interprets operational conditions of a Bluetooth radio for an upper level, supervisory software layer. The intermediate level software layer also interfaces between the upper level software layer and a lower level software layer that interfaces to the alternate radio. The lower level software layer defines therein a criterion for reporting a condition of the alternate radio to the upper level software layer.
