Instant and precise localization of indoor mobile users is fundamental for supporting various sophisticated location-aware services. Using Bluetooth low-power beacons for mobile user positioning has been reported as an effective approach, where the beacon deployment positioning (BDP) problem has been defined. The paper introduces a novel approach for solving large-scale BDP problems, aiming to significantly reduce beacon consumption from existing solutions with much less computation complexity. Extensive simulations are conducted to verify the proposed algorithm, whose beacon consumption is about 1.14 to 1.67 times and 0.2 to 0.48 times compared to those of the Mixed Integer Linear Program (ILP) and a naive iBeacon solution respectively. We have also observed that the running time scales well with the growth of the number of Test Positions and attenuation factors.

“…The downside of beacon technology is that if a beacon signal is transmitted every second or every 10 seconds at periodic intervals, a large amount of battery energy will be wasted and the battery will need to be replaced biannually or annually [16,17]. Even though the intervals at which beacon signals are emitted can be extended to reduce power consumption, if this is done, some moving devices will be passed by and unable to detect the beacon signals because of the long interval times [18,19].…”

Beacon systems for Internet of Things (IoT) services require frequent battery replacement and costly maintenance. To resolve these issues, we developed a novel beacon system. This system does not require Power over Ethernet (PoE) to supply power because it uses Ethernet energy-harvesting technology via the RJ45 port of the router and switching hub. We experimentally confirmed that the power produced through the Internet TCP/IP network signals activated the beacon dongle to transmit signals, and that a smartphone then received these signals.

“…These combine with the BLE potential for the interior positioning allows personalized content to be provided to the user, depending on their interactions [85]. It is being applied within different sectors, such as tourism [86,87], banks [88], marketing [89,90], payments [91], traffic [92,93], etc.…”

The current social impact of new technologies has produced major changes in all areas of society, creating the concept of a smart city supported by an electronic infrastructure, telecommunications and information technology. This paper presents a review of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Near Field Communication (NFC) and Visible Light Communication (VLC) and their use and influence within different areas of the development of the smart city. The document also presents a review of Big Data Solutions for the management of information and the extraction of knowledge in an environment where things are connected by an “Internet of Things” (IoT) network. Lastly, we present how these technologies can be combined together to benefit the development of the smart city.
