Low power NRF51822 sensor advice
HI All,
I have created a set of NRF51822 based sensors which are queried by a Raspberry pi every 30 seconds (So the Sensor acts as a GATT server). The node waits in the ble.waitForEvent() in a loop. On receiving a packet from the server (OnDataWritten event), it updates the characteristics, which are read by the client running on the Raspberry pi.
This works, but Im wondering if its the most power efficient way of doing things.
Would it be better just to put the sensor data in the advertising payload?
Thanks
Kihon
