[0073] A.Bluetooth TM Low Energy (LE) Technology

[0074] Bluetooth TM The core specification, version 4.0, includes the Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) protocol for products requiring lower power consumption, lower complexity, and lower cost than possible using the Bluetooth Basic Rate / Enhanced Data Rate (BR / EDR) protocol. Bluetooth LE is designed for applications requiring lower data rates and shorter duty cycles, with very low power idle modes, simple device discovery and short data packets. Bluetooth LE devices can employ a star topology, where one device acts as a master for multiple slaves, the master specifies the connection timing by establishing a start time for the first connection event, and the slaves only send packets whe...

Abstract

Embodiments enable discovery of services in a wireless communications medium. In example embodiments, a method comprises inserting, by an apparatus, an indication associated with a service requested by the apparatus to an apparatus address field of a wireless service discovery packet; and transmitting, by the apparatus, the wireless service discovery packet including the inserted indication associated with the requested service. The packet may be a Bluetooth Low Energy SCAN_REQ PDU packet. The apparatus's address field may be a non-resolvable private address format in a ScanA field of the Bluetooth Low Energy SCAN_REQ PDU packet. The apparatus may be functioning as a subscriber in a Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN) network.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The field of the invention relates to wireless short-range communications, and more particularly to the discovery of services in a wireless communications medium. Background technique: [0002] Modern society has adopted and is becoming dependent on wireless communication devices for various purposes, such as connecting users of wireless communication devices with other users. Wireless communication devices may vary from battery powered handheld devices to home and / or commercial devices that utilize the electrical grid as a power source. Due to the rapid development of wireless communication devices, many fields that enable entirely new communication applications have emerged. [0003] Cellular networks facilitate communication over large geographic areas. These network technologies are often divided by generation, starting with the first generation (1G) of analog cellular telephones, which provided baseline voice communications in the 1970s and ear...
