Method and technical equipment for short range data transmission

摘要

The application relates to a method, an apparatus and a computer program product. The method comprises adjusting dynamically a sensitivity of a receiver from a default sensitivity to a low sensitivity; wherein the adjusting is based on the signal strength of at least one existing connection or at least one previous connection; receiving only such packets by the receiver which are available with the low sensitivity.

1. A method, comprising:
a) receiving a first packet from a Bluetooth low energy (BLE) enabled sender with a default sensitivity by a radio and link layer of a BLE enabled receiver, the link layer being coupled between the radio and an application layer of the receiver; b) determining if a saturation occurs in the receiver due to the received packet, and if so:
decreasing the sensitivity from the default sensitivity to a lower sensitivity,receiving at least one second packet in the radio and link layer of the receiver with the lower sensitivity, and going to step b);c) otherwise determining signal strength of the received packet; andd) reporting the signal strength to the link layer of the receiver.
