 My scan environment is, 
 [Our device -- same UUID] 
 
 The number of our beacons is 100. 
 Each of beacons has an interval of 1000 ms (1 second)

&lt;p&gt;If the point is to scan as many advertising packets as possible then there is no problem to set the scan window to 100%. The only problem with having the scanning window set to 100% is that you will not be able to perform other roles, you can only scan the whole time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to improve beacon scan efficiency</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/232437?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 04 Feb 2020 02:21:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:70449c66-9475-4bbc-8ef6-c47b137e4da3</guid><dc:creator>leejh</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello, msromero.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If scan window increase to 100%, is there no problem?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I heard that it was best to set the scan interval and scan window to 50%. Why didn&amp;#39;t set it to 50% and load or problems when I set it to 100%?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to improve beacon scan efficiency</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/230851?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Jan 2020 12:46:35 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:7b3332a2-fdb3-4a3d-8258-242ee466b5e9</guid><dc:creator>Marjeris Romero</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. There is no option to filter by Manufacturer UUID when using nrf_ble_scan_filter_set(). I don&amp;#39;t see this would have had any improvement in speed anyways as the event will still occur, and filtering is done inside the application.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Increasing the scan window to 100% (scan window == scan interval) will help. The more beacons you have, the longer you have to scan to capture all of them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marjeris&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
