Preethi Palanisamy enhanced Bluetooth power management and reliability across the rdkcentral/bluetooth_mgr and meta-middleware-generic-support repositories by migrating device power controls to a centralized Power Manager Plugin. Using C, C++, and Makefile, Preethi refactored the Bluetooth manager client to standardize power-aware operations, updated build recipes, and removed legacy dependencies, resulting in improved battery life and maintainability. She also addressed HID reliability by fixing Luna gamepad autoconnect issues, aligning device behavior with user expectations. Her work demonstrated depth in embedded systems, plugin integration, and debugging, delivering features and targeted bug fixes that reduced maintenance overhead and improved user experience.

May 2025 monthly summary for rdkcentral/meta-middleware-generic-support. Delivered a targeted feature enhancement to streamline Bluetooth power management by switching the Bluetooth manager client to the Power Manager Plugin, reducing direct IARM PowerManager calls and enabling centralized power policy control. Updated the pn-bluetooth-mgr package version and source revision to reflect the change, ensuring consistent builds and traceability. This work aligns with ongoing efforts to consolidate power management across modules and reduces future maintenance overhead.
