Abstract
A wireless communication device includes a transceiver module for communicating with a further wireless communication device, and a control module configured to communicate with the further wireless communication device using a first connection. The first connection is based on a long range communication mode of the transceiver module. The control module is configured to receive a short range advertisement packet from the further wireless communication device via the transceiver module, and to control the transceiver module to switch to a short range communication mode of the transceiver module for communicating with the further wireless communication device after receiving the short range advertisement packet. The control module is further configured to communicate with the further wireless communication device using a second connection, which is based on the short range communication mode of the transceiver module.
