advertising

A BLE device broadcasting short packets so others can discover it.

Advertising broadcasts short packets (up to 31 bytes of payload in legacy advertising) on three channels at a set interval, carrying the device's name, services or sensor data.

Examples

  • The sensor sends one advertising packet on each of channels 37, 38 and 39 every interval, between 20 ms and 10.24 s.

  • Its 26-byte payload carries the name gh-bench1, service 0x181A and a temperature of 2153 (21.53 C).
