Abstract
A method of digital radio communication between a first device and a second device is disclosed. An advertising packet is transmitted between first and second devices, wherein the packet includes a first address and a data portion. Additionally, an encryption key is transmitted between the devices. The first device generates a second address by encrypting an identity value derived from part of the first address using the encryption key and the data portion. The result is encrypted to generate second portion of the second address. The first device then transmits a connection request including the second address. The second device decrypts the second portion and uses the encryption key to determine correspondence with the first portion. If said correspondence is determined, the second device decrypts the first portion using at least the encryption key and compares it to an expected identity value derived from the first address.
