Abstract
Disclosed are techniques for a device that wants to be a central device when creating a connection in a communication network such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to advertise information associated with a connection window to solicit a connection with a scanning peer device. When the scanning peer device receives the information, it may enter a connection as a peripheral device with the advertising device at the advertised connection window, allowing the advertising device to become the central device. Disclosed are also techniques for a device that wants to be a central device to advertise information associated with a scan window of the device to solicit a directed advertisement event from a peer device during the advertised scan window. The peer device initially scans but may advertise during the scan window as advertised to enable the central device to create a connection where the peer device becomes a peripheral device.
