Face-to-Face Proximity Estimation Using Bluetooth On
Smartphones
ABSTRACT:
The availability of “always-on” communications has tremendous implications for
how people interact socially. In particular, sociologists are interested in the question
if such pervasive access increases or decreases face-to-face interactions. Unlike
triangulation which seeks to precisely define position, the question of face-to-face
interaction reduces to one of proximity, i.e., are the individuals within a certain
distance? Moreover, the problem of proximity estimation is complicated by the fact
that the measurement must be quite precise (1-1.5 m) and can cover a wide variety
of environments. Existing approaches such as GPS and Wi-Fi triangulation are
insufficient to meet the requirements of accuracy and flexibility. In contrast,
Bluetooth, which is commonly available on most smartphones, provides a
compelling alternative for proximity estimation. In this paper, we demonstrate
through experimental studies the efficacy of Bluetooth for this exact purpose. We
propose a proximity estimation model to determine the distance based on the RSSI
values of Bluetooth and light sensor data in different environments. We present
several real world scenarios and explore Bluetooth proximity estimation on Android
with respect to accuracy and power consumption.

In recent years, the presence of portable devices ranging from the traditional laptop
to fully fledged smartphones has introduced low-cost, always-on network
connectivity to significant swaths of society. Network applications designed for
communication and connectivity provide the facility for people to reach anywhere
at any time in the mobile network fabric. Digital communication, such as texting and
social networking, connect individuals and communities with ever expanding
information flows, all the while becoming increasingly more interwoven. There are
compelling research questions whether such digital social interactions are modifying
the nature and frequency of human social interactions. A key metric for sociologists
is whether these networks facilitate face-to-face interactions or whether these
networks impede face-to-face interactions.
DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM:
 Where subjects are asked about their social interaction proximity, is
unreliable.
 Interactions are not limited to any particular area and can take place at a wide
variety of locations
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
We demonstrate the viability of using Bluetooth for the purposes of face-to-face
proximity estimation and propose a proximity estimation model with appropriate

smoothing and consideration of a wide variety of typical environments. We study
the relationship between the value of Bluetooth RSSI and distance based on
empirical measurements and compares the results with the theoretical results using
the radio propagation model.
We explore the energy efficiency and accuracy of Bluetooth compared with Wi-Fi
and GPS via real-life measurements. We deploy an application “PhoneMonitor”
which collects data such as Bluetooth RSSI values on 196 Android-based phones.
Based on the data collection platform, we are able to use the proximity estimation
model across several real-world cases to provide high accurate determination of
face-to-face interaction distance
ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:
 It provides adequate accuracy for detecting something like buddy proximity
(e.g., median accuracy of 20-30 meters),
 Different from the above proximity detection method, our work is a fine grain
Bluetooth-based proximity detection method which can provide adequate
accuracy for face-to-face proximity estimation without environment
limitations.
