如何检测外围设备何时停止广告日期，以便我可以删除该外围设备表单已发现设备列表？

Question

When you connect to the Bluetooth Central Manager (CM) and start scanning for a device that has particular services, the CM will let you know when it finds a device.

func centralManager(
    central: CBCentralManager, 
    didDiscoverPeripheral peripheral: CBPeripheral, 
    advertisementData: [String : AnyObject], 
    RSSI: NSNumber)

However, there's no corresponding “didUndiscoverPeripheral” type of function. In the case of my app, I needed to show an instruction screen, detect when the device was turned on (discovered), show a list of discovered devices and let the user select it. If the device timed out or was turned off(stops broadcasting advertisement Date), I needed to remove the device from the discovered device list.

It will be better if you can explain it with a working example.

Set the CBCentralManagerScanOptionAllowDuplicatesKey to true before the scan starts so that the didDiscover peripheral callBack method will execute every time when an advertisement packet is received.

create a dictionary and a timer to keep track of the discovered device list. The key of the dictionary is peripheral identifier and value is counter initially set to 5 when the peripheral is discovered first time after that when an advertisement packet from the peripheral is received we keep on updating the counter value to 5 in didDiscover peripheral callback method.

    var discoveredPeripherals : [String: Int] = [String: Int]()
    var discoveryTimer : Timer =  Timer()

ScheduledTimer when scan is starts :

    discoveryTimer =  Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 1, target: self, selector: #selector(updateDiscoveredDevices), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)

stop the timer when scan stops.

    discoveryTimer.invalidate()

if the device stops advertisement and it is not connected then remove the device after 5 sec from the discovered device list.

@objc func updateDiscoveredDevices() {
        peripherals.forEach{
            if discoveredPeripherals.index(forKey: $0.identifier.uuidString) != nil
            {
                if discoveredPeripherals[$0.identifier.uuidString]! != 0
                {
                    discoveredPeripherals[$0.bleDeviceGetId()]! -= 1
                }
                else{
                    if $0.state != CBPeripheralState.connected
                    {
                        removeDevice($0)
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

Thanks to @Paulw11 for suggesting this approach.
