electronics and information technology have occurred rapidly resulting in the
development of the global iBeacon and Bluetooth beacon market. iBeacon is a protocol
which was originally developed by Apple Inc. Since then, other vendors also have made
iBeacon-compatible hardware transmitters known as beacon. The technology enables
tablets, smartphones and other devices to carry out activities such as to send or
distribute messages and approximate location determination when there is nearness to
an iBeacon. Both software and hardware components are involved in iBeacon
technology. iBeacon is compatible with OS 7, iPod touch (5th generation) or later, iPad
mini or later and iPad (3rd generation), iPhone 4s or later or later devices. Also, with
Android 4.3+, Macintosh computers (OS X Mavericks 10.9 and Bluetooth) 4.0 and

enabled device, whenever the iBeacon user is around a iBeacon-enabled retail shop
(special offers), museum (sporting event/closest display), bus stop and other
locations.Travel industries are undergoing through major deployments of beacon
technology in airports and hotels. The iBeacons and Bluetooth beacons are intensively
used in smartphones. Thus, the global iBeacon and Bluetooth beacon market is
