An Indoor Tracking System using iBeacon and Android
Context-aware applications use context to provide relevant information and services to users with minimal user intervention with the system. User location is such a context for location-aware services. While in the outdoor location-aware systems Global Positioning System can provide the user locati...

In this paper, we explore the use of iBeacon for user tracking in an indoor user tracking system with a prototype implementation and evaluate the system on some general use cases.
