Abstract:
The present disclosure describes how a master beacon having a known UUID can be used to capture beacons within its range and superimpose a systematic address scheme on those beacons. The superimposed address scheme can then be used as a proxy for the individual beacons when developing applications that make use of the beacons. A master beacon automatically detects each beacon in a plurality of beacons and, for a set of beacons in the plurality of beacons, automatically changes either the first profile identifier or the second profile identifier for each beacon in the set of beacons. The change is such that the first profile identifier or the second profile identifier is identical for each beacon in the set of beacons and is also associated with the master beacon.

Claim (Index 5):
The beacon network of  claim 4  further comprising:\n a plurality of beacons within BLE range of one of the first master beacon and the second master beacon, each beacon comprising: \n a BLE unit; \n a beacon processing unit coupled to the BLE unit; \n a beacon storage coupled to the beacon processing unit; \n a power source adapted to power the beacon; \n wherein for each beacon in the plurality of beacons, the beacon storage stores:\n a UUID for that beacon, the UUID forming part of a beacon advertisement for that beacon; \n a first profile identifier for that beacon, the first profile identifier for that beacon forming part of the beacon advertisement for that beacon; and \n a second profile identifier for that beacon, the second profile identifier for that beacon forming part of the beacon advertisement for that beacon; and \n wherein the instructions further comprise:\n instructions for automatically detecting, by said master beacon, a plurality of beacons by detecting the beacon advertisement for each beacon, wherein each beacon advertisement includes the universally unique identifier (UUID) for the respective beacon, the first profile identifier for the respective beacon and the second profile identifier for the respective beacon, wherein the UUID, the first profile identifier and the second profile identifier are stored in the beacon storage on the respective beacon; and \n instructions for automatically changing, in the beacon storage of each of the detected beacons of the plurality of beacons, one of the first profile identifier and the second profile identifier so that the one of the first profile identifier and the second profile identifier is identical for each beacon in the set of beacons and the one of the first profile identifier and the second profile identifier is associated with the master beacon; and \n for each beacon in the set of beacons, the master beacon storing, in the master database on the server remote from the master beacon:\n the UUID for that beacon; \n the changed first profile identifier for that beacon; and \n the changed second profile identifier for that beacon.
