Unlike the existing compression technology for BLUETOOTH such as SBC, it processes high-resolution audio sources without down-converting them to low frequencies and low bit numbers (*1). In addition, by applying extremely efficient coding and optimizing packet distribution, it is possible to transmit data volume that is about three times that of conventional technology (*2), realizing unprecedented high-quality BLUETOOTH wireless transmission.
