nRF Connect SDK Mesh + iBeacon coexistence

[Jacob B]

We are currently developing an application for nRF5340 using the nRF Connect SDK which requires bluetooth mesh + iBeacon coexistence.  Are there any resources/examples available to help with this?  Any pointers would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

Hi Jacob

I'm afraid we don't have any further documentation or example code other than what is already available on the Zephyr Project pages. Here for iBeacon, and here for Bluetooth Mesh, so I think you will have to combine these two examples yourself. As far as I can see, there are no Mesh beaconing examples in the Zephyr documentation though, so that would be the first step. Next. you should probably check out the iBeacon specs on Apple's pages to make sure that it fits with the Bluetooth Mesh specification. 

For additional information that might be relevant, I also found this case, where another community member did something similar with the nRF5 SDK and nRF52832. 

Best regards,

Simon
