A research on Beacon code architecture extension using category and code Beacon structure
Cheolhoon Kim, Sungwon Lee · 2014
In this paper, we propose extended code architecture to express more information in existing iBeacon. Information that is available to the user is limited to 4byte because user can only use Major and Minor of iBeacon. Proposed scheme can use more information by transmitting consecutively Beacon signal containing classification and detailed information. When it comes to using more information of iBeacon, utilization range is widened further.
