I don't know anything about wireless USB but USB OTG is called USB because it is USB. It's not some totally unrelated protocol.

I thought OTG was just changing up where the host controller is sitting in the USB relationship? So you can have a device that acts like a client when hooked to a computer, or a master when hooked to a thumb drive/webcam/etc...?

    Yeah it just allows you to use a B port as a host (if supported). It's still the USB protocol.

      AFAIK, according to the standard you still cannot use the B port as a host, it should instead be an AB port (a socket in which both A and B plugs fit).
