Service Solicitation in Advertising Packet

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BLE-STACK

Hello...

My query is regarding the Service Solicitation in Advertisement Packet.

What is the Service Solicitation in Bluetooth Low Energy?

In which situations or for what purpose, the Service Solicitation Data will be used???

Please answer to my query.

Thanks

  • Hi Mihir,

    This is basically to indicate one or more of the services the device has in it's advertisment data (or scan response data).

    One use-case for this is for other devices to be able to scan or connect only to devices with a certain service (e.g. the BLE-Stack simple_central only connects to devices with the Simple GATT service UUID in their advertisment data).
  • Thanks Marie for your explanation.

    Now i understood what is Service Solicitation & where it is used.
