Abstract:
A method for improving the ability to detect passive beacon receiver devices is disclosed. According to the method, a beacon communication system which comprises one or more short-range wireless beacon transmitter devices at least one of which is configured to repeatedly transmit a short-range wireless beacon advertisement signal on a first beacon broadcast channel, is operated by causing a device among the short-range wireless beacon transmitter devices to temporarily transmit a short-range wireless beacon refresh signal on a second beacon broadcast channel. The beacon refresh signal is adapted to cause one or more short-range wireless beacon receiver devices being in a passive mode to enter into a short-range wireless beacon scanning mode.

Claim (Index 12):
The beacon communication system as defined in  claim 1  and further comprising a server, wherein the server is configured for:\n receiving respective reports from beacon receiver devices being in the passive mode when having detected respective beacon refresh signals from the short-range wireless beacon transmitter devices on the second beacon broadcast channel; \n registering a relation between the reporting beacon receiver device being in the passive mode and the beacon transmitter device whose beacon refresh signal it detected; \n receiving an enquiry from one of the beacon transmitter devices; and \n responding to the enquiring beacon transmitter device with information pertaining to registered relations between the enquiring beacon transmitter device and beacon receiver devices being in the passive mode, wherein the information serves to enable the enquiring beacon transmitter device to determine whether a beacon refresh signal is to be sent.
