A Privacy Conscious Bluetooth Infrastructure for Location Aware Computing
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a low cost and easily deployed infrastructure for location aware computing that is built using standard bluetooth® technologies and personal computers. Mobile devices are able to determine their location to room-level granularity with existing bluetooth technology, and to even greater resolution with the use of the recently adopted bluetooth 1.2 specification, all while maintaining complete anonymity. Various techniques for improving the speed and resolution of the system are described, along with their tradeoffs in privacy and ease of deployment.

Today’s location-sensitive service relies on user’s mobile device to determine the current location. This allows malicious users to access a restricted resource or provide bogus alibis by cheating on their locations. To address this issue, we propose A PrivacyPreserving LocAtion proof Updating System (APPLAUS) in which co-located Bluetooth enabled mobile devices mutually generate location proof...
متن کاملA Testbed for Ubiquitous Computing using Next Generation Mobile Networks
Ubiquitous Computing becomes feasible in an environment where the user is always and everywhere surrounded by an environment that is able to determine the location and plans of the user. It is therefore able to provide services that are tailored to the user’s preferences. This paper describes work in progress to develop a testbed consisting of various mobile networks (WiFi, GPRS, and Bluetooth)...
