Bluetooth localization was a very active research area in the past years. The usual localization procedures were implemented with accuracy sufficient for many applications and their functionality was proven. What so far is still missing are practically applicable infrastructure components. The past research projects used mainly PCs with Bluetooth Dongles as base stations, which have two serious disadvantages. On the one hand they are absolutely oversized for this application and on the other hand they occupy additional Ethernet ports at the Switches. For the solution of exactly this problem, describes this contribution a classical Ethernet Switch, into which a Bluetooth localization service was integrated. Thus the integration of a localization service into the normal building infrastructure is carried out.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
