Android 开发中 iBeacon的使用
iBeacon的工作原理是基于Bluetooth Low Energy(BLE)低功耗蓝牙传输技术,iBeacon基站不断向四周发送蓝牙信号,当智能设备进入设定区域时,就能够收到信号。只要满足iBeacon技术标准的都可以使用,所以Android也能够支持iBeacon。Google在Android4.3中支持BLE技术
定位一直是非常关键的功能。通过iBeacon基站的部署能够实现室内导航,同时通过蓝牙推送信息,iBeacon在商场零售或者一些公共服务领域如体育馆、博物馆能提供非常棒的体验。尤其是蓝牙不错传输距离、低功耗、以及信号加密使得iBeacon在移动支付领域也非常有前景。总之,iBeacon的潜力似乎是无穷大,也受到了越来越多的关注。
要了解iBeacon是如何工作首先我们要了解BLE。BLE(也称为Bluetooth Smart)最早追溯到Nokia于2006年提出的Wibree,后来融合进了蓝牙标准,成为Bluetooth4.0的一部分。目前我们经常能看到3种蓝牙设备:
- Bluetooth:只支持传统模式的蓝牙设备
- Bluetooth Smart Ready:支持传统和低功耗两种模式设备
- Bluetooth Smart:只支持低功耗蓝牙设备
BLE与传统的蓝牙相比最大的优势是功耗降低90%,同时传输距离增大(超过100米)、安全和稳定性提高(支持AES加密和CRC验证)。iBeacon同时有一些自己的特点:
- 无需配对,一般蓝牙设备印象中都需要配对工作。iBeacon无需配对,因为它是采用蓝牙的广播频道传送信号。
- 程序可以后台唤醒,iBeacon的信息推送需要App支持。但是我们接收iBeacon信号无需打开App,只要保证安装了,同时手机蓝牙打开。
iBeacon是如何工作呢?实际上iBeacon基站通过蓝牙的广播频道不断向外发送位置信息,发送频率越快越耗电。也就是说iBeacon并不推送消息,而只是用于定位,推送消息的功能必须由App来完成。苹果定义了iBeacon 其中32位广播的数据格式。
- UUID:厂商识别号
- Major:相当于群组号,同一个组里Beacon有相同的Major
- Minor:相当于识别群组里单个的Beacon
- TX Power:用于测量设备离Beacon的距离
UUID+Major+Minor就构成了一个Beacon的识别号,有点类似于网络中的IP地址。TX Power用于测距,iBeacon目前只定义了大概的3个粗略级别:
- 非常近(Immediate): 大概10厘米内
- 近(Near):1米内
- 远(Far):1米外
这里主要是对其用法做一个介绍:
首先是获取BluetoothAdapter对象:
- final BluetoothManager bluetoothManager =
- (BluetoothManager) getSystemService(Context.BLUETOOTH_SERVICE);
- mBluetoothAdapter = bluetoothManager.getAdapter();
- mBluetoothAdapter.startLeScan(mLeScanCallback);
然后就是它的回调,在这里对搜索到的iBeacon设备距手机的信号强度做了一个排序
- private BluetoothAdapter.LeScanCallback mLeScanCallback =
- new BluetoothAdapter.LeScanCallback() {
- @Override
- public void onLeScan(final BluetoothDevice device, int rssi, byte[] scanRecord) {
- final iBeacon ibeacon = iBeaconClass.fromScanData(device,rssi,scanRecord);
- addDevice(ibeacon);
- Collections.sort(mLeDevices, new Comparator<iBeacon>() {
- @Override
- public int compare(iBeacon h1, iBeacon h2) {
- return h2.rssi - h1.rssi;
- }
- });
- }
- };
最后把搜索到的数据添加到集合中去
- private ArrayList<iBeacon> mLeDevices = new ArrayList<iBeacon>();
- private void addDevice(iBeacon device) { //更新beacon信息
- if(device==null) {
- Log.d("DeviceScanActivity ", "device==null ");
- return;
- }
- for(int i=0;i<mLeDevices.size();i++){
- String btAddress = mLeDevices.get(i).bluetoothAddress;
- if(btAddress.equals(device.bluetoothAddress)){
- mLeDevices.add(i+1, device);
- mLeDevices.remove(i);
- break;
- }
- }
- mLeDevices.add(device);
- }
我们在iBbeaconClass类中对其进行数据的解析处理,参考:https://github.com/AltBeacon/android-beacon-library
