Not clear about minimum and maximum connection interval

[Anand Ramashetty]

Hi,

Can anybody clear me on the maximum and minimum connection interval with some good example. I have not understood the connection intervals clearly.

Hi Aryan,

I have gone through already, but I am not clear. I want an explanation with an example of sending some chunks of data.

you basically tell the softdevice that the accepted connection interval for the connection is in between the MIN and MAX value the application provides in the connection parameters. The Softdevice also uses this value for the connection parameter update requests from peer to see if it can accept the request.

If you want the connection interval to be constant non varying throughout then you provide same values to MIN and MAX. Any example with a connect request should help you experiment with this values.

Hi Aryan,

What is use of defining min and max value for the connection interval?

It will give the softdevice flexibility to change the connection interval between MIN and MAX values for example in connection parameter update request sent by peer. If peer requested change in connection interval is between MIN and MAX value, then that request is probable to be accepted. you can restrict the connection not to change its connection interval at all by giving same MIN and MAX values. Then if the peer requests a change then your device will reject the request.
