S132 softdevice concurrent roles

[ned_zeppelin]

Hi,

I have read the S132 Softdevice specification v3.0 and just want to make sure that my interpretation is correct. There are two scenarios I would like to verify:

1. If a device has an active connection as a Peripheral, it can concurrently scan (and read) advertisement packets?

2. If a device has an active connection as a Peripheral, it can concurrently send non-connectable advertising?

Thanks in advance.

If a device has an active connection as a Peripheral, it can concurrently scan (and read) advertisement packets?

Yes, a Peripheral that has an active connection to a central can concurrently operate as an observer(i.e. Scanner) and receive advertisement packets.

If a device has an active connection as a Peripheral, it can concurrently send non-connectable advertising?

Yes, a peripheral with an active connection to a central can concurrently send non-connectable advertisment packages.
