We have sensors that advertise their status to a main device using the NRF-Connect, which works fine.
In this arrangement, the central unit does not initiate connections; rather, the sensors solely advertise their status.
The challenge arises with certain sensors, where the signal strength becomes weak and unreliable, particularly at distances exceeding 50 meters. To address this, I am exploring the possibility of programming a repeater that can continuously scan and then rebroadcast every packet that meets specific criteria.
Is this a feasible solution?
Has anyone attempted something similar before?
I'm also open to the possibility that there might already be an existing solution to this problem.
Thanks
