Abstract
Example embodiments herein disclose methods, Bluetooth devices, and computer-readable media a capable of providing virtual Bluetooth controller (VBC) interfaces for a number of applications. In particular, an example method includes determining a number of applications configured to communicate with a Bluetooth device. Further, the method includes determining a number of virtual Bluetooth controller (VBC) interfaces for the number of applications, where the number of VBC interfaces correspond to respective Bluetooth static random (BSR) addresses of a number of BSR addresses. Yet further, the method includes determining one or more advertising packets for the number of VBC interfaces, where the one or more advertising packets include the respective BSR addresses of the number of BSR addresses. In addition, the method includes transmitting, via a radio of the Bluetooth device, the one or more advertising packets for the number of VBC interfaces.
