Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the information of heterogeneous beacons may be scattered and not placed in one place, making indoor positioning using multiple types of beacons infeasible
Another problem with conventional personalized beacon deployments is the lack of a common node for calibration resulting in the calibration of positioning sensors being done individually

Abstract

Method, device, and computer program product that may improve communications between a mobile device and an access point device are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of communicating between a mobile device and an access point device comprises control a plurality of beacons in the access point device, establishing a communication between the access point device with the mobile device using a first beacon in the plurality of beacons, broadcasting availability of the plurality of beacons in the access point device via the first beacon, and establishing the communication with the mobile device using a second beacon in the plurality of beacons.

Description

[0001] Cross reference of related applications [0002] This application claims the rights and interests of the U.S. application No. 13 / 952,396 entitled "Communications between a Mobile Device and an Access Point Device" filed on July 26, 2013, and the U.S. application was assigned to This assignee is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Technical field [0003] The invention relates to the field of wireless communication. Specifically, the present invention relates to communication between a mobile device and an access point device. Background technique [0004] In conventional applications, various beacons such as WiFi, Bluetooth, femtocell, QR code, and Near Field Communication (NFC) devices can be used for indoor positioning. However, in these conventional applications, because it is difficult to collect heterogeneous beacon information, the joint use of such beacons for positioning applications has not been realized. The reason for the difficulty of joint use is...
