Method 1400 may proceed to operation 1406 during which data packets may be sent over both a Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connection. In various embodiments, the Bluetooth connection may be a Bluetooth or BLE connection. Accordingly, the data packets may be A2DP or BLE data packets. Thus, during operation 1408, the A2DP/BLE packets may be sent simultaneously over the Bluetooth connection and the Wi-Fi connection. As discussed above, and as will be discussed in greater detail below, the data packets are encapsulated for Wi-Fi transmission such that the A2DP/BLE packets are included in Wi-Fi data packets. Method 1300 may then proceed to operation 1410 discussed in greater detail below.

Returning to operation 1404, if it is determined that an AMP protocol is not being used, method 1400 may proceed to operation 1408 during which data packets may be sent over both the Bluetooth and an RTP/UDP/IP connection via the Wi-Fi connection. Accordingly, the A2DP/BLE packets may be sent simultaneously over the Bluetooth connection and the Wi-Fi connection, and the encapsulation technique may be configured based on the use of the RTP/UDP/IP connection.

Method 1400 may proceed to operation 1410 during which the sink device may be switched to the Bluetooth connection. Accordingly, as discussed above, the sink device may implement synchronization operations, discard redundant data packets from the Wi-Fi connection, and complete the switch over to the Bluetooth connection.
