Abstract:
A master beacon device emits a data packet that is received and retransmitted by servant beacon devices in a wireless mesh network that enables the beacon devices to detect the received signal strength indicator (“RSSI”) of beacon devices in proximity. Each servant beacon device transmits survey data packets comprising the RSSIs and hardware identifiers of proximate beacon devices to the master beacon device, which constructs a first virtual map of the mesh network. At a later time, each servant beacon device transmits authentication data packets, which are retransmitted, each retransmitting beacon inserting an RSSI and hardware identifier of the beacon device from which the authentication data packet was received, until they reach the master beacon device, which constructs a second virtual map of the mesh network. The master beacon device compares the first virtual map to the second virtual map to determine if the network is secure.

Claim (Index 37):
A system to secure a wireless mesh network of beacon devices, comprising:\n a storage device; and a processor communicatively coupled to the storage device, wherein the processor executes application code instructions that are stored in the storage device to cause the system to:\n receive, from a plurality of servant beacon devices in a mesh network, survey data comprising, for each of the servant beacon devices, a beacon device identifier and path loss value of proximate servant beacon devices detected by each servant beacon device; \n transmit, to each of the plurality of servant beacon devices, enrollment data comprising beacon device identifiers and corresponding path loss values of proximate beacon devices to servant beacon devices, wherein the enrollment data is based on the received survey data and wherein the enrollment data may be retransmitted by servant beacon devices within the mesh network to reach other recipient servant beacon devices; \n receive authentication data from a plurality of servant beacon devices in a mesh network, the authentication data comprising beacon device identifiers for servant beacon devices and path loss values detected by servant beacon devices of proximate servant beacon devices; \n compare path loss data from the received survey data packets to the path loss data from the received authentication data packets to identify any differences between the received survey data packets and the received authentication data packets; and \n determine that the mesh network is secure based on identifying no differences between the path loss data from the received survey data packets and the path loss data from the received authentication data packets.
