Abstract

A method and system for wireless pairing procedure through a wired interface. The wireless pairing system of the present invention comprises at least two wireless devices and a central controller. First, the wireless devices are connected to the central controller through a wired interface for pairing. The central controller then requests relevant information such as device address, device type, and connection mode of each wireless device. The central controller determines all possible pairs of peer entities according to the relevant information of the wireless devices, and generates a dedicated link key for each pair for successful pairing. Finally, the central controller writes the link key and the relevant information of the corresponding peer entity into each wireless device.
