Abstract:
Provided are systems and methods for reversing the conventional roles of central and peripheral devices in a BLE network. Doing so includes implementing an end node (EN) as the sole initiator of a connection between a particular EN and a particular access point (AP). Such implementation includes determining a location of the EN based on position information for multiple reference points (RPs), which may in instances be supplied by the AP. Advantageously, the relative positioning is more particularly based on the received signal strengths (RSS) of beacon advertisement messages broadcast from the RPs, and refined by each of the position information.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of BLE communication of  claim 14 , wherein:\n one or more of the plurality of RPs is configured to include the area information in the second beacon advertisement message thereof, the EN is configured to query the AP for the coordinate information corresponding to the area information, and the AP is configured to fulfill the query so as to supply the corresponding coordinate information to the querying EN.
