Abstract

A method of communication in a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) network comprising a master device and a plurality of slave devices. The method has the steps of: generating a unique identifier parameter comprising a data string having a plurality of bits; assigning to each slave device a unique bit of the unique identifier parameter and a value of the bit representative of active communication; sending from the master device to each slave device a communication which includes the unique identifier parameter; at each slave device, determining the value of the bit assigned to the respective slave device; at each slave device, if the determined value of the bit is representative of active communication, processing the communication, otherwise ignoring the communication.
