Locating and Tracking BLE Beacons with Smartphones
Dongyao Chen, Kang Geun Shin, Yurong Jiang, Kyu-Han Kim · 2017
We present a smartphone-based application, called LocBLE, for enabling users to estimate the location of nearby Bluetooth low energy (BLE) beacons. In contrast to existing BLE beacon-based proximity applications that can only show coarse-grained (immediate, near, and far) distance estimation, LocBLE's fine-grained estimation can enhance human-environment interactions.
