Problems solved by technology

At present, the distribution of pillars, corners, and shelves in the building, and people entering the signal coverage area of ​​iBeacon will cause a large number of "depressions" or even blind spots for the signal of iBeacon fixed base stations. Due to the propagation characteristics of 2.4GHz signals, simply improving the The transmission power cannot solve the existence of these blind spots. At the same time, due to the strong absorption characteristics of the human body to 2.4Hz, when the transmission power of the iBeacon signal remains unchanged, the more people in the sub-area covered by the base station signal, the more crowded it is. The stronger the signal attenuation in the area, the iBeacon broadcast signal cannot be received in many places

Embodiment 1

[0024] Embodiment 1: The iBeacon positioning system of this embodiment includes several iBeacon fixed base stations and mobile terminals as iBeacon temporary base stations.

[0025] The area covered by the iBeacon positioning system is divided into several hexagons according to the cellular method, and an iBeacon fixed base station is set in each hexagon.

[0026] When the mobile terminal enters the signal coverage area of ​​the iBeacon positioning system, the mobile terminal measures the signal strength RSSI of the surrounding iBeacon fixed base stations and iBeacon temporary base stations, and the statistics show that the number of iBeacon fixed base stations whose signal strength RSSI is greater than the set value TH is A1. The number of iBeacon temporary base stations whose strength RSSI is greater than the set value TH is A2. If 3≤A1+A2<6, the mobile terminal screens out signals from all iBeacon fixed base stations and iBeacon temporary base stations whose signal strength ...

Embodiment 2

[0036] Embodiment 2: The method for using the mobile terminal as the temporary base station of the iBeacon positioning system in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0037] S1: When the mobile terminal enters the signal coverage area of ​​the iBeacon positioning system, the mobile terminal measures the signal strength RSSI of the iBeacon fixed base station and the iBeacon temporary base station that can be detected by itself, and counts the iBeacon fixed base stations whose signal strength RSSI is greater than the set value TH The number is A1, and the number of temporary iBeacon base stations whose signal strength RSSI is greater than the set value TH is A2. Screen out the 3 base stations with the strongest signal strength RSSI among the temporary base stations;

[0038] S2: The mobile terminal judges whether there is an iBeacon temporary base station among the three selected base stations. If there is no iBeacon temporary base station, the iBeacon broadcast functi...

Embodiment 3

[0041] Embodiment 3: The method for using the mobile terminal as the temporary base station of the iBeacon positioning system in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0042] S1: When the mobile terminal enters the signal coverage area of ​​the iBeacon positioning system, the mobile terminal measures the signal strength RSSI of the iBeacon fixed base station and the iBeacon temporary base station that can be detected by itself, and counts the iBeacon fixed base stations whose signal strength RSSI is greater than the set value TH The number is A1, and the number of temporary iBeacon base stations whose signal strength RSSI is greater than the set value TH is A2. Screen out the 3 base stations with the strongest signal strength RSSI among the temporary base stations;

[0043] S2: The mobile terminal judges whether there is an iBeacon temporary base station among the three selected base stations. If there is no iBeacon temporary base station, the iBeacon broadcast functi...

Abstract

The invention discloses an iBeacon positioning system, and a method for using a mobile terminal as a temporary base station. The method comprises the following steps that: the mobile terminal measures the signal strengths RSSI of iBeacon fixed base stations and iBeacon temporary base stations at four sides; N base stations having the highest signal strengths RSSI are screened out from all the iBeacon fixed base stations and iBeacon temporary base stations, the signal strengths RSSI of which are greater than a set value TH; and, if the iBeacon temporary base stations exist in the screened N base stations, the mobile terminal opens an iBeacon broadcasting function and is used as one iBeacon temporary base station. According to the invention, after entering a signal coverage area of the iBeacon positioning system, the mobile terminal can be served as the iBeacon temporary base station and forward received iBeacon broadcasting information; and thus, the signal blind area of the iBeacon positioning system is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bluetooth communication, in particular to an iBeacon positioning system and a method for using a mobile terminal as a temporary base station. Background technique [0002] iBeacon is a set of specifications based on the Bluetooth 4.0 protocol developed by Apple, which is mainly used for indoor positioning and information push. At present, the distribution of pillars, corners, and shelves in the building, and people entering the signal coverage area of ​​iBeacon will cause a large number of "depressions" or even blind spots for the signal of iBeacon fixed base stations. Due to the propagation characteristics of 2.4GHz signals, simply improving the The transmission power cannot solve the existence of these blind spots. At the same time, due to the strong absorption characteristics of the human body to 2.4Hz, when the transmission power of the iBeacon signal remains unchanged, the more people in the sub-area...
