Abstract: In a wireless communication between a mobile controller and a controllable device, the device periodically broadcasts, at a relatively low power level, a first advertisement packet for connecting the controllable device to a mobile controller. Once a connection has been established between the device and the controller, the controller and the device exchange their respective identifiers (IDs). In the event that the connection becomes broken, the device starts to additionally periodically broadcast, at a relatively high power level, a second advertisement packet containing the device ID for reconnecting the device to the controller. Upon receipt of the second packet, the controller requests receipt of a message containing the controller ID and, upon receipt of that message, resumes the connection with the device. The device then stops the broadcast of the second advertisement packet.
