METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SHARING AN ESTABLISHED CONNECTION BETWEEN A PRIMARY DEVICE AND ONE OF A PLURALITY OF SECONDARY DEVICES IN A NETWORK

摘要

A method of sharing an established connection between a primary device in a network and one of a plurality of secondary devices. The method comprising the steps of receiving from an unconnected secondary device said plurality of secondary devices, an advertising packet for identifying said unconnected secondary device, sending, to said unconnected secondary device, a connection request based on said received advertising packet for establishing a connection between said unconnected secondary device and said primary device, said connection being shared among said unconnected secondary device and said one of said plurality of secondary devices, and transmitting, to secondary devices sharing an established connection, connection parameters, wherein said connection parameters define a time shared multiplexing scheme thereby facilitating sharing of said established connection. A complementary method and device for performing a method according to the present disclosure are also presented herein.
