It's kind of relative question with my previous question. "When smartphone range is shorter than a peripheral(nRF5X), is there any way to receive an advertisement from the peripheral?" devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

test device : nRF51822 / iPhone 5

My goal: Wide the range as possible as I can so that the smartphone gets a data from the device at the position where it wasn't able to get.
When a smartphone and a device are in the range that they can connect, there is no problem. But I want to make the range LITTLE BIT LONGER by using advertising when they're not connected.
So I tested advertising with BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_ADV_NONCONN_IND as I was suggested in my previous question.
But it turns out the connection range and the range that the smartphone can get an advertising data is exactly same. It that expectable result? or Did I mistake something? or It should be done like that because iPhone 5's range is wider than the device.
Thanks.
