Definitions

  • This invention relates to position determination, and has particular relation to position determination where the Global Positioning System (GPS) is not available.
  • GPS Global Positioning System
  • Bluetooth is a proposed Radio Frequency (RF) specification for short-range, point-to-multipoint voice and data transfer.
  • RF Radio Frequency
  • Bluetooth can transmit through solid, non-metal objects. Its nominal link range is from 10 cm to 10 m, but can be extended to 100 m by increasing the transmit power. It is based on a low-cost, short-range radio link, and facilitates ad hoc connections for stationary and mobile communication environments.
  • Bluetooth enables portable electronic devices to connect and communicate wirelessly via short-range, ad hoc networks. It is a universal radio interface in the 2.45 GHz frequency band that has gained the support of many wireless and computer equipment manufacturers. In order to function on a worldwide basis, Bluetooth requires a radio frequency that is license-free and open to any radio. The 2.45 GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band satisfies these requirements, although it must cope with interference from other devices which also use the same band. Bluetooth uses shorter data packets and higher hop rate, a combination that makes Bluetooth devices more immune to interference from other ISM devices and other sources of radio frequency.
  • ISM Industrial, Scientific and Medical
  • Bluetooth technology will be built into hundreds of millions of electronic devices. This would make Bluetooth technology the fastest growing ever. It is estimated that before year 2002, Bluetooth will be a built-in feature in more than 100 million mobile phones and in several million other communication devices, ranging from headsets and portable PCs to desktop computers and notebooks. Bluetooth connects devices to the Internet both on the fixed and mobile infrastructure worldwide.
  • Bluetooth will enable users to connect to a wide range of computing and telecommunications devices without the need to buy, carry, or connect cables. It delivers opportunities for rapid communications with access points, ad hoc connections, and in the future, cable replacement, and possibly for automatic, unconscious, connections between devices. Bluetooth's power- efficient radio technology can be used with (see FIG. 1):
  • Bluetooth characteristics include:
  • TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
  • Bluetooth considers data exchange to be a fundamental function. Data exchange can be as simple as pushing a business card from a mobile phone to a PDA or as sophisticated as synchronizing personal information between a PDA and a PC. Bluetooth specifies these applications as well as other data exchange applications. Bluetooth uses the upper layer protocol (object exchange, or "OBEX”) to implement these applications.
  • object exchange or "OBEX”
  • Bluetooth devices can be either peer-to- peer with each device being equal or between a master and slaves in a piconet configuration.
  • a piconet is a small ad hoc network. It starts with two connected devices and may grow to include as many as many as eight devices. All devices in the piconet are synchronized to the master clock and hopping sequence.
  • Table 1 is a comparison between Bluetooth and cables:
  • Bluetooth devices in places where access to GPS signals or any other means of finding position is prohibitive. Examples of these places include but are not limited to: Building lobbies, basements, inside elevators, inside parking garages, at bus stops, inside trains, inside buses, inside subway stations, etc. These Bluetooth devices will be provided by information about their geographical position by one of the following means:
  • FIG. 2 demonstrates SDP client-server interaction.
  • the service discovery mechanism provides the means for client application to discover the existence of services provided by server applications as well as the attributes of those services.
  • the attributes of a service include the type or class of service offered and the mechanism or protocol information needed to utilize the service.
  • the SDP does not provide a mechanism though for utilizing these services.
  • the SDP server maintains a list of service records that describe the characteristics of services associated with the server.
  • a client may retrieve information from a service record maintained by the SDP server by issuing an SDP request.
  • a Bluetooth device or an application associated with the device, decides to use the Position Determination Service, it must open a separate connection to the service provider in order to utilize the service.
  • a single Bluetooth device may function as an SDP server and as an SDP client. There is a maximum of one SDP server per Bluetooth device. If multiple applications on a device provide services, an SDP server may act on behalf of those service providers to handle requests for information about the services that they provide. Similarly, multiple client applications may utilize an SDP client to query services on behalf of the client applications.
  • the Position Determination Service is an activity undertaken by a device that provides information describing the geographical position of the device. All the information about the service is contained within a single service record.
  • the service record consists of a list of service attributes. Each service attribute consists of two components: attribute identity (ID) and attribute value. An attribute ID is used to distinguish each service attribute from other service attributes within a service record.
  • the attribute value is a field whose meaning is determined by the attribute ID and by the service class of the service record in which the attribute is contained.
  • a service class specifies each of the attributes IDs for the service class and assigns a meaning to the attribute value associated with each attribute ID.
  • Position information may consist of: (a) Latitude: 21 bit field; covers the range -180 degrees to + 180 degrees with resolution of 10 meters;
  • Bluetooth devices Users have the option of setting up their Bluetooth devices to automatically establish a connection with another Bluetooth device as soon as they are within range. With automatic connection, two Bluetooth devices can exchange position data (latitude, longitude and altitude).

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé permettant de déterminer la position d'un dispositif sans fil équipé de Bluetooth. Ce procédé est fondé sur l'échange d'informations de position entre des dispositifs utilisant la technique Bluetooth. Si l'un de ces dispositifs connaît sa position (car il est fixe ou car il possède un récepteur GPS ou un capteur GPS, ou d'autres moyens lui permettant de déterminer sa propre position), alors ces informations de position peuvent être transmises à d'autres dispositifs situé à proximité RF. De plus, une technique de triangulation utilisant la mesure de distance et/ou l'intensité du signal provenant de plusieurs dispositifs à proximité RF peut être utilisée pour déterminer la position du dispositif.
