Pairing and bonding to a peripheral that already has an IRK and advertises using it

Hi,

Assume the following situation:

Two BLE devices, a control unit and a medical implant inside a patient (no button can be pressed on it), are paired and bonded. The control unit listens for the advertisements of the implant and if it receives one it resolves its resolvable private device address and checks if the correct identity resolving key was used by the implant, which it did.

Now I want to use a different BLE device (a wireless charger), that also needs to communicate over BLE with the implant. How can I now pair and bond with the implant, that already sends out advertisements with a resolvable private device address?

Thank you and best regards

Thomas
