Method and system for wireless pairing
First Claim
1. A wireless pairing method using a wired interface, comprising the following steps:
- a central controller detecting at least two wireless devices through a wired interface, and reading relevant information of each wireless device, wherein the relevant information comprises device address, device type, connection mode, and other additional information;
determining possible pairs of peer entities for wireless pairing according to the device type and the connection mode of the wireless devices;
generating a dedicated link key for each pair of peer entities; and
writing the device address, device type, connection mode, and dedicated link key of the corresponding peer entity into each wireless device.

Abstract
A method and system for wireless pairing procedure through a wired interface. The wireless pairing system of the present invention comprises at least two wireless devices and a central controller. First, the wireless devices are connected to the central controller through a wired interface for pairing. The central controller then requests relevant information such as device address, device type, and connection mode of each wireless device. The central controller determines all possible pairs of peer entities according to the relevant information of the wireless devices, and generates a dedicated link key for each pair for successful pairing. Finally, the central controller writes the link key and the relevant information of the corresponding peer entity into each wireless device.
