Description
本發明有關藍牙通信技術,尤指一種啟動自動配對程序之前不需要先切換到收發藍牙廣告封包的操作模式的藍牙通信系統及相關的藍牙裝置。The present invention relates to Bluetooth communication technology, in particular to a Bluetooth communication system and related Bluetooth devices that do not need to switch to an operation mode of sending and receiving Bluetooth advertisement packets before starting an automatic pairing procedure.
為了簡化藍牙裝置之間的配對程序,業界已開發出許多藍牙自動配對(Bluetooth auto-pairing)技術,例如,美國第10,645,740號專利及美國第11,019,669號專利所揭示的藍牙自動配對技術。在前述的專利中,要進行配對的兩個藍牙裝置必需透過特定的藍牙廣告封包(Bluetooth advertising packet)來傳送相關的資料或指令,才能啟動相關的自動配對程序。In order to simplify the pairing procedure between Bluetooth devices, many Bluetooth auto-pairing technologies have been developed in the industry, for example, the Bluetooth auto-pairing technologies disclosed in US Pat. No. 10,645,740 and US Pat. No. 11,019,669. In the aforementioned patent, the two Bluetooth devices to be paired must transmit relevant data or commands through a specific Bluetooth advertising packet in order to activate the relevant automatic pairing procedure.
然而,根據前述專利所揭示的內容,兩個藍牙裝置在進行自動配對程序之前,必須分別切換至特定的操作模式才能傳送或接收特定的藍牙廣告封包,所以控制上比較複雜,且完成整個自動配對程序所需的時間,可能難以滿足要求藍牙配對程序必須在更短時間內完成的某些應用的需要。However, according to the content disclosed in the aforementioned patent, before the automatic pairing procedure is performed, the two Bluetooth devices must switch to a specific operation mode respectively to transmit or receive a specific Bluetooth advertisement packet, so the control is relatively complicated, and the entire automatic pairing is completed. The time required for the procedure may be difficult to meet the needs of some applications that require the Bluetooth pairing procedure to be completed in a shorter time.
另一方面,眾所周知,只有支援藍牙低功耗(Bluetooth Low Energy,BLE)技術的藍牙裝置才能夠傳送及解析藍牙廣告封包。換言之,不支援藍牙低功耗技術的藍牙晶片與藍牙裝置,就難以採用前述專利的方式來實現自動配對功能。On the other hand, it is well known that only Bluetooth devices supporting Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology can transmit and parse Bluetooth advertisement packets. In other words, it is difficult for a Bluetooth chip and a Bluetooth device that do not support the Bluetooth low energy technology to implement the automatic pairing function using the method of the aforementioned patent.

眾所周知,藍牙通信系列標準中只規範了由使用者介入操作(例如,從一可配對裝置清單中選擇要配對的目標裝置)時的一般藍牙裝置配對程序,但並未規範如何在使用者不介入的情況下,讓兩個藍牙裝置進行自動配對程序。As we all know, the Bluetooth communication series standard only regulates the general Bluetooth device pairing procedure when the user intervenes (for example, selects the target device to be paired from a list of pairable devices), but does not specify how to do it without user intervention , let the two Bluetooth devices go through the automatic pairing procedure.
如前所述,既有的藍牙自動配對技術是利用特定藍牙廣告封包來傳遞自動配對所需的資訊,例如,輔助廣告指示(auxiliary advertising indication,AUX_ADV_IND)封包、廣告拓展指示(extended advertising indication,ADV_EXT_IND)封包、輔助鏈接指示(auxiliary chain indication,AUX_CHAIN_IND)封包、輔助掃描回應(auxiliary scan response,AUX_SCAN_RSP)封包、輔助同步指示(auxiliary synchronous indication,AUX_SYNC_IND)封包等。As mentioned above, the existing Bluetooth automatic pairing technology uses specific Bluetooth advertising packets to transmit the information required for automatic pairing, such as auxiliary advertising indication (auxiliary advertising indication, AUX_ADV_IND) packets, extended advertising indication (extended advertising indication, ADV_EXT_IND) ) packet, auxiliary chain indication (auxiliary chain indication, AUX_CHAIN_IND) packet, auxiliary scan response (auxiliary scan response, AUX_SCAN_RSP) packet, auxiliary synchronous indication (auxiliary synchronous indication, AUX_SYNC_IND) packet, etc.
為了能夠產生或解析前述的特定藍牙廣告封包,既有的藍牙自動配對技術還要求兩個藍牙裝置在進行自動配對程序之前,必須先分別切換至特定的操作模式,例如,低功耗拓展被動掃描(LE Extended Passive Scan)模式、低功耗拓展主動掃描(LE Extended Active Scan)模式、低功耗拓展發起者(LE Extended Initiator)模式、可掃描(Scannable)模式、周期性廣告(Periodic Advertising)模式。此外,兩個藍牙裝置的操作模式還必須是特定的組合才行。In order to be able to generate or parse the aforementioned specific Bluetooth advertisement packets, the existing Bluetooth automatic pairing technology also requires two Bluetooth devices to switch to a specific operation mode before performing the automatic pairing procedure, for example, low-power extended passive scanning (LE Extended Passive Scan) mode, LE Extended Active Scan mode, LE Extended Initiator mode, Scannable mode, Periodic Advertising mode . In addition, the operating modes of the two Bluetooth devices must be a specific combination.
很明顯地,既有的藍牙自動配對技術不僅控制上較為複雜,而且兩個藍牙裝置都必須支援藍牙4.0標準開始出現的藍牙低功耗技術,才能進行自動配對程序。Obviously, the existing Bluetooth automatic pairing technology is not only complicated in control, but also both Bluetooth devices must support the Bluetooth low energy technology that the Bluetooth 4.0 standard began to appear in order to perform the automatic pairing process.
為了解決既有的藍牙自動配對技術的缺點,前揭的藍牙通信系統100會採用不同的機制來實現自動配對功能。In order to solve the shortcomings of the existing Bluetooth automatic pairing technology, the previously disclosed Bluetooth
以下將搭配圖2來進一步說明藍牙通信系統100中的藍牙裝置的的配對方式。圖2為本發明第一實施例的藍牙裝置自動配對方法簡化後的流程圖。The pairing method of the Bluetooth devices in the Bluetooth

在此情況下,倘若用戶要利用詢問方藍牙裝置110自動與請求方藍牙裝置120進行藍牙配對,則用戶可對詢問方觸發裝置130進行特定的操作,以使詢問方觸發裝置130產生相應的觸發信號。此時,詢問方介面電路118會進行流程204,以接收詢問方觸發裝置130產生的觸發信號,並通知詢問方控制電路116。In this case, if the user wants to use the

在流程210中,請求方藍牙裝置120的請求方藍牙傳收電路122會在詢問掃描模式下,從前述的詢問掃描通道接收詢問方藍牙傳收電路112傳來的藍牙詢問請求。此時,請求方封包解析電路124會解析(parse)詢問方藍牙傳收電路112傳來的藍牙詢問請求,以取得詢問方藍牙裝置110的藍牙位址。In the
在流程212中,請求方藍牙裝置120的請求方控制電路126會產生包含有請求方藍牙裝置120的藍牙位址(以下稱之為請求方藍牙位址)的一跳頻同步(Frequency Hop Synchronization,FHS)封包。In the
依據請求方藍牙裝置120所支援的藍牙標準的種類而定,請求方藍牙裝置120可能會具有一個或一個以上的藍牙地址。例如,在請求方藍牙裝置120只支援藍牙2.0標準的實施例中,請求方藍牙裝置120可能只會具有單一藍牙位址。又例如,在請求方藍牙裝置120同時支援藍牙2.0標準及藍牙4.0標準(或藍牙5.0標準、藍牙5.3標準)的實施例中,請求方藍牙裝置120可能會同時具有兩個不同的藍牙位址。在流程212中,請求方控制電路126可將請求方藍牙裝置120的部分或全部藍牙位址都填入前述跳頻同步封包的一個或多個預定欄位中。實作上,請求方控制電路126也可根據功能設計上的需要,在前述的跳頻同步封包中填入其他的資料或信息。Depending on the type of Bluetooth standard supported by the
在流程214中,請求方控制電路126會產生包含一自動配對請求的一擴展掃描回應(Extended Inquiry Response,EIR)封包。前述擴展掃描回應封包中的自動配對請求,指的是要求另一藍牙裝置主動與請求方藍牙裝置120進行藍牙自動配對程序的各種指示信息或指令。實作上,請求方控制電路126可將該自動配對請求填入前述擴展掃描回應封包中的一個或多個預定欄位中。In the
在流程216中,請求方控制電路126會在詢問掃瞄模式下,控制請求方藍牙傳收電路122透過前述的詢問掃描通道傳送該跳頻同步封包給詢問方藍牙傳收電路112。In the
在此情況下,詢問方藍牙傳收電路112會進行流程218,以在詢問模式下接收請求方藍牙傳收電路122傳來的跳頻同步封包,而詢問方封包解析電路114則會解析詢問方藍牙傳收電路112接收到的跳頻同步封包,以從跳頻同步封包中擷取出前述的請求方藍牙位址。In this case, the
另外,在請求方藍牙傳收電路122傳送前述的跳頻同步封包給詢問方藍牙傳收電路112之後,請求方控制電路126還會進行流程220。In addition, after the requester's Bluetooth transmission and
在流程220中,請求方控制電路126會在詢問掃描模式下,控制請求方藍牙傳收電路122在前述的詢問掃描通道的下一個封包傳送時槽(slave-to-master slot)中,透過前述的詢問掃描通道立刻傳送該擴展掃描回應封包給詢問方藍牙傳收電路112。In the

當請求方控制電路126接收到請求方觸發裝置330傳來的通知時,請求方控制電路126會進行流程406,控制請求方藍牙傳收電路122進入一詢問掃描模式,以偵測附近是否有其他藍牙裝置發出藍牙詢問請求。When the
在流程208中,詢問方控制電路116會在詢問模式下,控制詢問方藍牙傳收電路112透過一詢問掃描通道發送該藍牙詢問請求給附近的其他藍牙裝置。In the
在流程210中,請求方藍牙傳收電路122會在詢問掃描模式下,從前述的詢問掃描通道接收詢問方藍牙傳收電路112傳來的藍牙詢問請求。此時,請求方封包解析電路124會解析詢問方藍牙傳收電路112傳來的藍牙詢問請求,以取得詢問方藍牙裝置310的藍牙位址。In the
接著,詢問方藍牙裝置310與請求方藍牙裝置320會進行圖4中的流程212至流程226的運作。有關前述圖2中的其他對應流程的運作方式,亦適用於圖4的實施例中。為簡潔起見,在此不重複敘述。Next, the inquiring
同樣地,詢問方控制電路116可由請求方藍牙裝置320傳來的自動配對請求得知,請求方藍牙裝置320允許其他藍牙裝置與其進行藍牙配對。因此,詢問方控制電路116會透過詢問方藍牙傳收電路112自動嘗試與接收到的每一個請求方藍牙位址所對應的藍牙電路進行藍牙配對程序,而不會產生可供連線的藍牙裝置清單供用戶進行選擇。換言之,詢問方藍牙裝置310與請求方藍牙裝置320在流程226中的運作完全無需用戶介入。Likewise, the
