Assignee: CYPRESS SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 14:
15. A multi-protocol communication network comprising:
a first device including a first transceiver and a first interface-controller coupled to a first wired-connection, and a second device including a second-transceiver and a second interface-controller coupled to a second wired-connection using a packet-switched-wireless-protocol,
wherein the first device is operable to receive first-packets over the first wired-connection using a packet-switched-wired-protocol and to receive non-packet based data, convert the first-packets to second-packets compatible with the packet-switched-wireless-protocol by proactively starting a preamble transmission and inserting a number of synchronization bits in a preamble field of the first-packets to align a packet duration of the second-packets with a packet duration of packets of the packet-switched-wireless-protocol, wherein the number of synchronization bits include bits of the non-packet based data, and
wherein the first device is further operable to transmit the second-packets from the first device to the second device through a wireless-connection.
