FUNCTION EXECUTING DEVICE AND TERMINAL DEVICE FOR EXECUTING WIRELESS COMMUNICATION ACCORDING TO BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18450045 titled 'FUNCTION EXECUTING DEVICE AND TERMINAL DEVICE FOR EXECUTING WIRELESS COMMUNICATION ACCORDING TO BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a function executing device that can repeatedly send an advertising signal using a Bluetooth Low Energy scheme.

  • The device can change the radio field intensity used for sending the advertising signal based on a specific signal received from a terminal device.
  • The device can establish a wireless connection with the terminal device after sending an advertising signal with the changed radio field intensity.
  • The purpose of this innovation is to optimize the power consumption and range of the advertising signal.


Original Abstract Submitted

A function executing device may comprise a first wireless interface according to a Bluetooth Low Energy scheme being capable of repeatedly sending an advertising signal. The function executing device may after a first advertising signal in which a first radio field intensity is used has been sent from the first wireless interface, receive a specific signal via the first wireless interface from a terminal device, change a radio field intensity used for sending the advertising signal from the first radio field intensity to a second radio field intensity lower than the first radio field intensity, and after a second advertising signal in which the second radio field intensity is used has been sent from the first wireless interface, establish a first wireless connection with the terminal device via the first wireless interface.
