Methods, systems, and devices for bluetooth low energy discovery
Embodiments of the present disclosure include methods, devices and systems for Bluetooth low energy discovery in wireless application service platforms. One example embodiment relates to transmitting, by a first terminal including a radio, a request message for seeking service, receiving, by a peer terminal, the request message for seeking service, transmitting to the first terminal, by the peer terminal, a response frame advertising service including service provider information.
1. A device for activating Wi-Fi using Bluetooth, the device comprising storage and processing circuitry, the processing circuitry coupled to the storage, the processing circuitry configured to:
cause to send a first Bluetooth advertisement packet comprising a first indication of a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) service;
identify a second Bluetooth advertisement packet received from another device;
identify, in the second Bluetooth advertisement packet, an address identifying the other device, a second indication of the NAN service, and a NAN identifier, the NAN identifier different than the address; and
cause to activate a Wi-Fi radio associated with the device based on identifying the second indication of the NAN service, wherein to cause to activate the Wi-Fi radio comprises to initiate a NAN link.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the first Bluetooth advertisement packet is a Bluetooth low energy packet.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to perform NAN service discovery based on identifying the second indication of the NAN service.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first Bluetooth advertisement packet or the second Bluetooth advertisement packet further comprises Wi-Fi organization information.
5. The device of claim 4 , wherein the Wi-Fi organization information is associated with activating the Wi-Fi radio.
6. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a transceiver configured to cause the transmission and the reception of wireless signals, wherein the wireless signals comprise at least one of the first Bluetooth advertisement packet or the second Bluetooth advertisement packet.
7. The device of claim 6 , further comprising one or more antennas coupled to the transceiver.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions which when executed by one or more processors of a first device result in performing operations comprising:
identifying, at a first device, a first Bluetooth advertisement packet received from a second device, wherein the first Bluetooth advertisement packet comprises a first indication of a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) service;
causing to send a second Bluetooth advertisement packet to the second device, wherein the second Bluetooth advertisement packet comprises an address identifying the first device, a second indication of the NAN service, and a NAN identifier, the NAN identifier different than the address; and
causing to activate a Wi-Fi radio associated with the first device, wherein causing to activate the Wi-Fi radio comprises to initiate a NAN link.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the first Bluetooth advertisement packet is a Bluetooth low energy packet.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , the operations further comprising performing NAN service discovery.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein at least one of the first Bluetooth advertisement packet or the second Bluetooth advertisement packet further comprises Wi-Fi organization information.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the Wi-Fi organization information is associated with activating the Wi-Fi radio.
13. A method, comprising:
causing to send, by a first device, a first Bluetooth advertisement packet comprising a first indication of a neighbor awareness networking (NAN) service;
identifying a second Bluetooth advertisement packet received from a second device;
identifying, in the second Bluetooth advertisement packet, an address identifying the second device, a second indication of the NAN service, and a NAN identifier, the NAN identifier different than the address; and
causing to activate a Wi-Fi radio associated with the first device based on identifying the second indication of the NAN service, wherein causing to activate the Wi-Fi radio comprises initiating a NAN link.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first Bluetooth advertisement packet is a Bluetooth low energy packet.
15. The method of claim 13 , further comprising performing NAN service discovery based on identifying the second indication of the NAN service.
16. The method of claim 13 , wherein at least one of the first Bluetooth advertisement packet or the second Bluetooth advertisement packet further comprises Wi-Fi organization information.
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the Wi-Fi organization information is associated with activating the Wi-Fi radio.
