AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
As the number of BLE advertising devices increases, the likelihood of packet collisions also increases, making it difficult for scanners to recognize advertising devices effectively in the BLE application environment.
Method used
The method involves receiving advertising data packets from multiple advertising devices over a predetermined period, acquiring first and second candidate values for the number of advertising devices based on measurement values, and estimating the number of advertising devices using these values.
Benefits of technology
This approach reduces the likelihood of packet collisions, improving the probability of scanner recognition of advertising devices and enabling effective BLE application services.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for estimating the number of BLE devices in a basic neighbor discovery process, and the method for estimating the number of BLE devices according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise: receiving advertising data packets from respective multiple advertising devices on the basis of a preconfigured period; on the basis of a first measurement value relating to the number of the advertising data packets and a second measurement value relating to the advertising devices, acquiring a first candidate value and a second candidate value which relate to the number of the multiple advertising devices, the first and second measurement values being measured on the basis of the preconfigured period; and acquiring information on the number of the multiple advertising devices on the basis of information on the number of advertising data packets related to the first candidate value, information on the number of advertising devices related to the first candidate value, information on the number of advertising data packets related to the second candidate value, and information on the number of advertising devices related to the second candidate value.
