Chapter 3
Architectural Overview
This chapter presents an overview of the Wireless USB architecture and key concepts. Wireless USB is a logical bus that supports data exchange between a host device (typically a PC) and a wide range of simultaneously accessible peripherals. The attached peripherals share bandwidth through a host-scheduled, TDMA-based protocol. The bus allows peripherals to be attached, configured, used, and detached while the host and other peripherals are in operation. Security definitions are provided to assure secure associations between hosts and devices, and to assure private communication.
Later chapters describe the various components of Wireless USB in greater detail.
3.1USB System Description
A USB system consists of a host and some number of devices all operating together on the same time base and the same logical interconnect. A USB system can be described by three definitional areas:
•USB interconnect
•USB devices
•USB host
The USB interconnect is the manner in which USB devices are connected to and communicate with the host. This includes the following:
•Topology: Connection model between USB devices and the host.
•Data Flow Models: The manner in which data moves in the system over the USB between producers and consumers.
•USB Schedule: The USB provides a shared interconnect. Access to the interconnect is scheduled in order to support isochronous data transfers and to eliminate arbitration overhead.
USB devices and the USB host are described in more detail in subsequent sections.
3.1.1 Topology
Wireless USB connects USB devices with the USB host using a ‘hub and spoke’ model. The Wireless USB host is the ‘hub’ at the center, and each device sits at the end of a ‘spoke’. Each ‘spoke’ is a point-to-point connection between the host and device. Wireless USB hosts can support up to 127 devices and because Wireless USB does not have physical ports there is no need, nor any definition provided, for hub devices to provide port expansion. Figure 3-1 illustrates the topology of Wireless USB.

Figure 3-1 Bus Topology
3.1.1.1USB Host
There is only one host in any USB system. The USB interface to the host computer system is referred to as the Host Controller. Host controllers are typically connected to PCs through an internal bus such as PCI. The Host Controller may be implemented in a combination of hardware, firmware, or software.
This specification defines another way that a host controller may be ‘connected’ to a PC. Chapter 8 describes a Wire Adapter device class that allows USB host functionality to be connected to a PC through a USB connection (either wired or wireless).
Wire Adapters that directly connect to the PC using wired USB are known as Host Wire Adapters. Host Wire Adapters add Wireless USB capability to a PC.
Wire Adapters that are Wireless USB devices and hence connect to the PC wirelessly are known as Device Wire Adapters. Device Wire Adapters typically have USB ‘A’ connectors (ie. they look like wired hubs) and allow wired USB devices to be connected wirelessly to a host PC.
Note that each Wire Adapter creates a new ‘USB system’, in that there is one host (the wire adapter) talking to one or more devices using the same time base and interconnect.
Wire Adapters are important enabling devices for Wireless USB. Host Wire Adapters enable existing PCs to support Wireless USB. Device Wire Adapters allow existing wired USB devices to have a wireless connection to the host PC.
Additional information concerning hosts may be found in Section 3.10 and in Chapter 4.
3.1.1.2Wireless USB Devices
Wireless USB devices are one of the following:
•Functions, which provide capabilities to the system, such as a printer, a digital camera, or speakers
•Device Wire Adapter, which provides a connection point for wired USB devices.
Wireless USB devices present a standard USB interface in terms of the following:
•Their comprehension of the Wireless USB protocol
•Their response to standard USB operations, such as configuration and reset
