Abstract In recent years, Bluetooth beacons have been widely used in numerous application domains, including smart cities, assistive technologies, and intelligent transportation management. Researchers or developers associated with these domains frequently require diverse systems to implement or test their prototype related innovations. They need to deploy beacons for the specific environment every time; such customized systems typically cannot often be reused. Hence, the cost of implementation increases, and multiple systems generate redundant data. In this paper, we propose BeaCloud-an architecture which provides a common platform of multiple beacon-based systems. BeaCloud enables inter-system communication and allows easy and secure access to data for the system administrators. The proposed architecture presents a cost-effective model that offers reduced cost and hardware. Also, BeaCloud reduces the data redundancy by up to 40%. To demonstrate the feasibility of BeaCloud, we implemented a testbed of three testing sites and evaluated the system's performance. © 2020 IEEE.
