Abstract: A plurality of techniques that can reduce the power consumed by a low power node in a Bluetooth Mesh network are disclosed. One technique allows the low power node to receive more than one queued message from a friend node in a single packet, thereby reducing the number of transmissions required of the low power node. Another technique allows the low power node to utilize link layer device filtering so that messages that are not of interest are not processed by the low power node. A third technique allows the low power node to readily determine whether potential friend nodes are available before initiating the friendship establishment procedure.
