Abstract

An operating method of a communication device includes performing a scan procedure to receive a device name and an address of an external device; determining a connection interval corresponding to the external device according to one or more policies stored in the communication device under a condition that the device name and/or the address match the one or more policies; and building a connection with the external device according to the connection interval and the address of the external device, so that the communication device and the external device communicate corresponding to the connection interval.

Claims

1. A method of a communication device comprising:

performing a scan procedure to receive a device name and an address of an external device;

determining a connection interval corresponding to the external device according to one or more policies stored in the communication device under a condition that the device name and/or the address match the one or more policies; and

building a connection with the external device according to the connection interval and the address of the external device, so that the communication device and the external device communicate corresponding to the connection interval.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

determining the connection interval according to whether the external device has a local power supply.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

determining the connection interval according to a battery level of the external device.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

determining the connection interval according to whether data communicated between the communication device and the external device includes time-related data.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

determining the connection interval according to a loading of the external device and/or a loading of the communication device.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

determining the connection interval according to a degree of congestion between the communication device and the external device.

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising:

determining the connection interval according to the capacity of the connection interval of the external device.

8. A communication device comprising:

a communication component;

one or more processing components electrically connected to the communication component;

a memory electrically connected to the one or more processing components; and

one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processing components, the one or more programs comprising instructions for;

controlling the communication component for performing a scan procedure to receive a device name and an address of an external device;

determining a connection interval corresponding to the external device according to one or more policies stored in the communication device under a condition that the device name and/or the address match the one or more policies; and

controlling the communication component for building a connection with the external device according to the connection interval and the address of the external device, so that the communication device and the external device communicate corresponding to the connection interval.

9. The communication device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more programs comprises instructions for:

determining the connection interval according to whether the external device has a local power supply.

10. The communication device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more programs comprises instructions for:

determining the connection interval according to a battery level of the external device.

11. The communication device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more programs comprises instructions for:

determining the connection interval according to whether data communicated between the communication device and the external device includes time-related data.

12. The communication device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more programs comprises instructions for:

determining the connection interval according to a loading of the external device and/or a loading of the communication device.

13. The communication device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more programs comprises instructions for:

determining the connection interval according to a degree of congestion between the communication device and the external device.

14. The communication device as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more programs comprises instructions for:

determining the connection interval according to the capacity of the connection interval of the external device.

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed, causes one or more processing components to perform operations comprising:

performing a scan procedure to receive a device name and an address of an external device;

determining a connection interval corresponding to the external device according to one or more policies stored in the communication device under a condition that the device name and/or the address match the one or more policies; and

building a connection with the external device according to the connection interval and the address of the external device, so that the communication device and the external device communicate corresponding to the connection interval.

16. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium as claimed in claim 15 comprising instructions, which when executed, causes the one or more processing components to further perform operations comprising:

determining the connection interval according to whether the external device has a local power supply.

17. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium as claimed in claim 15 comprising instructions, which when executed, causes the one or more processing components to further perform operations comprising:

determining the connection interval according to a battery level of the external device.

18. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium as claimed in claim 15 comprising instructions, which when executed, causes the one or more processing components to further perform operations comprising:

determining the connection interval according to whether data communicated between the communication device and the external device includes time-related data.

19. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium as claimed in claim 15 comprising instructions, which when executed, causes the one or more processing components to further perform operations comprising:

determining the connection interval according to a loading of the external device and/or a loading of the communication device.

20. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium as claimed in claim 15 comprising instructions, which when executed, causes the one or more processing components to further perform operations comprising:

determining the connection interval according to a degree of congestion between the communication device and the external device.
