OFFLOADING MAC/LINK LAYER FUNCTIONS

The disclosure relates to offloading MAC/link layer functions. Disclosed is a wireless device having processor circuitry; and a hardware circuit configured to implement, during an active steady-stateof a Medium Access Control/Link Layer (MAC/LL) with scheduled channel access, a MAC/LL function without processor circuitry intervention, wherein the steady-state is a state that is control packet transmission free for managed connections in connection oriented communications or a continuous broadcast or scan operation in connectionless communications. 本公开涉及卸载MAC/链路层功能。公开了种无线设备，包括：处理器电路；以及硬件电路，其被配置为在具有经调度的信道接入的介质接入控制/链路层(MAC/LL)的活跃稳定状态期间在没有处理器电路干预的情况下实现MAC/LL功能，其中，稳定状态是针对面向连接的通信中的受管理连接、或无连接通信中的连续广播或扫描操作的无控制分组传输的状态。
