The disclosure relates to a method and a device for device discovery using ultra-wideband (UWB). A method for a first UWB includes transmitting a control message including information on a contention window for contention-based access by using a UWB communication scheme; receiving a scheduling request message for scheduling-based access, in a slot in the contention window from a second UWB device by using the UWB communication scheme; and configuring a scheduled slot for the second UWB device, based on the scheduling request message. The scheduling request message may be used for in-band device discovery.

The present disclosure provides a mechanism to perform a CSB burst mode between a master device and one or more slave devices. In CSB burst mode, the master device may broadcast more than one packet of data in a CSB interval, and hence, may use the time slots in a CSB interval more efficiently than while operating in traditional CSB mode. CSB burst mode of the present disclosure may be used to improve the latency and duty cycle of data transmissions, such as for example, broadcast audio. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine to broadcast a set of packets during a CSB interval, where the set of packets includes a plurality of packets. In some aspects, the apparatus may broadcast the set of packets during the CSB interval to a set of second nodes.

A Bluetooth audio broadcasting system includes: an audio broadcasting device, a first Bluetooth member device, and a second Bluetooth member device. The audio broadcasting device broadcasts BLE audio packets and transmits a predetermined volume instruction to the first Bluetooth member device and the second Bluetooth member device before broadcasting the BLE audio packets. The first Bluetooth member device parses the BLE audio packets to acquire a predetermined audio data, controls a first audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data, and configures an audio volume of the first audio playback circuit in advance according to the predetermined volume instruction. The second Bluetooth member device parses the BLE audio packets to acquire the predetermined audio data, controls a second audio playback circuit to playback the predetermined audio data, and configures an audio volume of the second audio playback circuit in advance according to the predetermined volume instruction.

A vehicle system includes a portable terminal and an in-vehicle device. The portable terminal is configured to perform short-range wireless communication. The in-vehicle device is configured to locate the portable terminal based on a reception strength. The portable terminal includes a transmission unit configured to change a channel among channels. A reception strength selection unit of the in-vehicle device is configured to select a particular number of reception strengths for consecutive ones of the channels. A terminal locator unit of the in-vehicle device is configured to prioritize a largest reception strength to locate the portable terminal based on the reception strength. An upper limit of the particular number is set to be higher as an interval for transmitting information from the antenna to the in-vehicle device is shorter, and a lower limit of the particular number is set based on a multipath reduction effect.

An implantable medical device, external device and method for managing a wireless communication are provided. The IMD includes a transceiver configured to communicate wirelessly, with an external device (ED), utilizing a protocol that utilizes multiple physical layers. The transceiver is configured to transmit information indicating that the transceiver is configured with first, second, and third physical layers (PHYs) for wireless communication. The IMD includes memory configured to store program instructions. The IMD includes one or more processors configured to execute instructions to obtain an instruction designating one of the first, second and third PHY to be utilized for at least one of transmission or reception, during a communication session, with the external device and manage the transceiver to utilize, during the communication session, the one of the first, second and third PHY as designated.

A wireless roaming method and related system are provided. The method is applicable to an access control device and includes: determining a moving direction of a mobile device that is in a first connection connecting with a first access point; establishing, by a second access point and in response to a determination that the moving direction meets a preset condition, a second connection connecting the mobile device with the second access point, and disconnecting, by the first access point, the first connection. The first access point and the second access point are both connected to the access control device, and have a same static address or a same Identity Resolving Key. This method allows the mobile device to securely and seamlessly roam within the coverage areas of different access points.

A contact and ranging system includes a first device that includes a first transceiver, a second transceiver, and a controller to control the first transceiver and the second transceiver of the first device. The first device is operable to determine a distance between the first device and a second device. The first transceiver is configured to perform a discovery operation. Other devices are discovered and added to a list of paired devices. A ranging schedule for each paired device in the list of paired devices is determined. The second transceiver is configured to perform a ranging operation. The ranging and response transmissions are transmitted and received by a pair of devices, such that a range between the pair of devices is determined based upon a time of flight between the pair of devices. The range between the pair of devices is matched with a timestamp and stored in a database.

A BLUETOOTH reconnection method is used in a BLUETOOTH connection system that includes a first device and a second device. The method includes that the first device sends a BLUETOOTH Low Energy (BLE) advertising signal to the second device after a BLUETOOTH connection between the first device and the second device is disconnected. If the second device determines that the received BLE advertising signal is a first BLE advertising signal, the second device does not page the first device, and waits to receive a page packet sent by the first device. If the second device determines that the received BLE advertising signal is a second BLE advertising signal, the second device actively pages the first device, and the first device waits to receive a page packet sent by the second device.

A vehicle system includes a portable terminal and an in-vehicle device. The portable terminal is configured to perform short-range wireless communication. The in-vehicle device is configured to locate the portable terminal based on a reception strength. The portable terminal includes a transmission unit configured to change a channel among channels. A reception strength selection unit of the in-vehicle device is configured to select a particular number of reception strengths for consecutive ones of the channels.
