Abstract

An apparatus, a method and a computer program product is disclosed for a Bluetooth communication transceiver. The Bluetooth communication transceiver is configured as a Bluetooth low energy device performing timing measurements which are to be used for power saving. Based at least in part on the timing measurements, receive activation timings of the Bluetooth communication transceiver are adjusted. Further, a sleep clock of the apparatus may be used for calibration of the receive activation timings.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to the technical field of bluetooth communication, and more precisely, to bluetooth low energy equipment (BLE). Background technique [0002] The BLE specification (version 0.9) is available from the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (BT SIG) website at http: / / www.bluetooth.com / Bluetooth / SIG / . [0003] Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology targets devices that require low power consumption, such as devices that run on one or more coin cells, such as sensors, smart key fobs, and so on. As this technology has taken hold in the market, it is expected that such batteries should last more than a year, for example when the device is operating in slave mode as defined in the BLE specification. [0004] This BLE specification has some states and roles for devices, as follows: [0005] ● Notification status [0006] - discoverable / connectable / broadcast [0007] ●Scan status [0008] - Active or passive scanning [00...
