RSS-based indoor positioning is a consolidated research field for which several techniques
have been proposed. Among them, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons are a popular option for
practical applications. This paper presents a new BLE RSS database that was created to aid in the
development of new BLE RSS-based positioning methods and to encourage their reproducibility
and comparability. The measurements were collected in two university zones: an area among
bookshelves in a library and an area of an office space. Each zone had its own batch of deployed
iBKS 105 beacons, configured to broadcast advertisements every 200 ms. The collection in the library
zone was performed using three Android smartphones of different brands and models, with beacons
broadcasting at −12 dBm transmission power, while in the other zone the collection was performed
using of one those smartphones with beacons configured to advertise at the −4 dBm, −12 dBm
and −20 dBm transmission powers. Supporting materials and scripts are provided along with
the database, which annotate the BLE readings, provide details on the collection, the environment,
and the BLE beacon deployments, ease the database usage, and introduce the reader to BLE RSS-based
positioning and its challenges. The BLE RSS database and its supporting materials are available at
the Zenodo repository under the open-source MIT license. [-]
