Method for controlling bluetooth device for power conservation

摘要

A method for controlling a Bluetooth device for power conservation includes the steps of: establishing a Bluetooth link; controlling the Bluetooth device to enter sniff mode; handling a sniff anchor point after wakeup preparation and before sleep preparation; and handling a wakeup operation between the wakeup preparation and the sleep preparation. The wakeup operation is a BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) operation or a Wi-Fi operation. The wakeup/sleep preparation can be also done as few times as possible in the invention such that the power consumption of the Bluetooth device is effectively reduced.

1. A method for controlling a Bluetooth device, comprising the steps of:
establishing a Bluetooth link; controlling the Bluetooth device to enter sniff mode; handling a sniff anchor point after wakeup preparation and before sleep preparation; and handling a wakeup operation between the wakeup preparation and the sleep preparation; wherein the wakeup operation is a BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) operation or a Wi-Fi operation, wherein the sniff anchor point is handled periodically at intervals of a first time period, and the wakeup operation is performed periodically at intervals of a second time period, and the first time period is substantially equal to the second time period, or the first time period is substantially a multiple of the second time period, or the second time period is substantially a multiple of the first time period.
