Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de réveil de dispositif sans fil, un dispositif d'envoi, et un dispositif de réception. Le procédé décrit dans les modes de réalisation de la présente invention comprend les étapes suivantes : un dispositif d'envoi envoie au moins un premier message à une première interface sans fil d'un dispositif de réception, l'instant d'envoi d'un ou plusieurs du ou des premiers messages étant dans une fenêtre de réveil de la première interface sans fil du dispositif de réception, et le premier message contenant un préambule de réveil et étant utilisé pour indiquer, au dispositif de réception, que le dispositif d'envoi peut envoyer un second message à la première interface sans fil du dispositif de réception après l'envoi du premier message ; le dispositif d'envoi génère le second message ; le dispositif d'envoi envoie le second message à la première interface sans fil du dispositif de réception, le second message étant utilisé pour commander au dispositif de réception de réveiller une seconde interface sans fil du dispositif de réception.
