    Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media are described that are associated with remote control of media devices. A remote control and a content player may be configured to facilitate a secured pairing process. The remote control may be configured to send non-secured signals (such as through an IR transmitter) as well as send and receive secured signals (such as via an RF transceiver). The remote control may non-securely broadcast an uncompressed identifier of itself. Then, in response to being turned on or asked to pair, the remote control may send a pairing request to the player that includes a compressed identifier. The player may then identify the remote control based on the compressed identifier and the previously-broadcast uncompressed identifier and the remote control and player may then perform a pairing process without requiring additional action on the part of a user. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage media for communications between a peripheral device and host device in the absence of established connection between the devices are described. In one instance, an apparatus may include a host processor, a memory, and a controller coupled with the host processor and the memory and configured to detect for a communication broadcasted via an advertising channel by a peripheral device; determine whether a unique identifier previously communicated to the peripheral device is present in the detected communication; and provide a message corresponding to the communication to the host processor for processing, based on a result of the determination. The apparatus communicates with the peripheral device via a connection established over communication channels. The advertising channel and the communication channels are different. The connection between the devices is not established when the communication is broadcasted via the advertising channel. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
