Abstract

This paper investigates the error distribution and packet loss characteristics of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons across near-field and far-field antenna zones. A custom experimental setup was developed using ESP32-based transmitters and an Ubertooth One receiver, supported by automated data collection scripts and time-synchronized measurements. The study quantifies how environmental conditions, distance, and transmission power affect BLE signal stability, particularly focusing on packet reception rates and RSSI behavior over distances from 0 to 2 meters. Cubic regression was employed to model the error distribution, highlighting a critical peak within the near-field boundary. The results emphasize the importance of adaptive beacon power management and advanced filtering for precise indoor positioning, especially in industrial and interference-prone environments.
