Bluetooth を用いた展示案内システムのための移動予測による効率的なハンドオフ方式

概要

Bluetooth is best suited for an exhibition guidance system, because of its low-power consumption, enabling visitors to use their own mobile phones as browsing devices. High user mobility assumed in an exhibition hall needs an efficient handoff mechanism, which is required to establish connection to the most appropriate access point (AP) with minimized duration and maximized interval. This paper presents an efficient handoff method, by which a mobile device predicts its movement and connects to the most appropriate AP in the moving direction without inquiry. The prediction is based upon location estimation as well as view history. A visitor is considered to be in the location of an exhibit when he/she requests the exhibit’s info. The simulation results show the proposed method outperforms the existing methods in data rate and active mode rate.
