Is there a way to programmatically detect an ADB connection over WiFi?

Question

I am developing an application that connects the client device to an adb server on a computer (over wifi) automatically. I am stuck on detecting whether it is successfully connected over wifi or not. Is there such thing as a java listener method that detects the connection to the device wirelessly?

mainactivity.java

    public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private Thread thread;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        // Check for Wireless connection


        // Check for USB connection
        thread = new Thread() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                try {
                    while (!thread.isInterrupted()) {
                        Thread.sleep(100);
                        runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                            @Override
                            public void run() {
                                if(usbDebuggingConnected()){
                                    WifiManager manager = (WifiManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
                                    assert manager != null;
                                    WifiInfo info = manager.getConnectionInfo();
                                    String address = info.getMacAddress();
                                    TextView t = findViewById(R.id.usb_connection);
                                    t.setText("Connected with the address - " + address);
                                    t.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.green));
                                } else {
                                    TextView t = findViewById(R.id.usb_connection);
                                    t.setText("USB Debugging Disconnected");
                                    t.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.red));
                                }
                            }
                        });
                    }
                } catch (InterruptedException ignored) {
                }
            }
        };
        thread.start();
    }

    public boolean usbDebuggingConnected() {
        Intent intent = registerReceiver(null, new IntentFilter("android.hardware.usb.action.USB_STATE"));
        assert intent != null;
        return Objects.requireNonNull(intent.getExtras()).getBoolean("connected");
    }

Thanks ahead of time!

I found a solution to this. Basically I make the application have TCP client functionality with selectable port. I think you need to integrate ASyncTask for this to work. I know it needs to complete the 3-way-handshake so maybe something like broadcast, receive, acknowledge?
