Bluetooth low energy address resolving
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and arrangements in a private address resolving node of a personal area network deploying Bluetooth low energy, BLE and in particular to methods and arrangements for proactively resolving periodically updated private addresses. When performed in a private address resolving node of a personal area network deploying Bluetooth low energy, BLE, a method comprises resolving a periodically updated private address of a private address generating node connected to the private address resolving node. The private address is used in addressing messages from the private address resolving node to the private address generating nodes. The method comprises receiving (S41), from a private address generating node in the personal area network, an Identity Resolving Key, IRK, the IRK being received over an encrypted link established between the private address resolving node and the private address generating node and receiving (S43), from the private address generating node, private address update information defining when and how to update the private address of the private address generating node. Based on the received IRK and the received private address update information, an updated private address to be used when addressing a next message to the private address generating node is determined (S45).
