It may take some time for iBeacon to go from ExitRegion to EnterRegion

Asked 2 years ago, Updated 2 years ago, 138 views

Beacon detection is taking a long time.


Reproduction instructions are available. ①Run self findBeacon;
to initiate detection ②Turn on the beacon

EnterRegion.CLRegionStateInside.
appears. ④FindBeacon. Beacon Detected
⑤Turn off the beacon

ExitRegion CLRegionStateOutside
appears after a while ⑦Turn on the beacon

It may take some time for EnterRegion. and CLRegionStateInside. to appear after this.
I'm trying iPhone 5 (iOS 8.4.1), but sometimes it takes about 30 seconds and sometimes it takes a couple of seconds.
It sometimes took more than 2 minutes for another device.

I'm having a hard time because the beacon doesn't seem to be detected unless it goes to EnterRegion.

Is there anything wrong with the implementation method?
Thank you for your cooperation.

 - (void) findBeacon {
  CLLocationManager* locationManager = [CLLocationManager new];
  locationManager startMonitoringForRegion: beaconRegion;
}

- (void) locationManager: (CLLocationManager*) manager didStartMonitoringForRegion: (CLRegion*) region {
  NSLog (@"startMonitoring");
  manager requestStateForRegion:region;
}

- (void) locationManager: (CLLocationManager*) manager didDetermineState: (CLRegionState) state forRegion: (CLRegion*) region {
  switch(state){
    caseCLRegionStateInside:
      NSLog (@"CLRegionStateInside");
      CLBeaconRegion* beaconRegion=(CLBeaconRegion*)region;
      manager startRangingBeaconsInRegion: beaconRegion;
      break;
    caseCLRegionStateOutside:
      NSLog(@"CLRegionStateOutside");
      break;
}

-(void) locationManager:(CLLocationManager*) manager didEnterRegion:(CLRegion*)region{
  NSLog(@"EnterRegion.");
  manager startRangingBeaconsInRegion: (CLBeaconRegion*) region;
}

-(void) locationManager:(CLLocationManager*) manager didExitRegion:(CLRegion*) region{
  NSLog(@"ExitRegion.");
  manager stopRangingBeaconsInRegion: (CLBeaconRegion*) region;
}

-(void) locationManager:(CLLocationManager*) manager didRangeBeacons:(NSArray*)beacons inRegion:(CLBeaconRegion*) region{
  NSLog(@"FindBeacon.");
}

I don't know if it will be helpful, but I will write a few things that I am interested in.

  • startRangingBeaconsInRegion runs frequently
    didDetermineState and didEnterRegion are referred to when entering the region from outside the iBeacon region.Also, if you start the app while you are already in the iBeacon region, only didDetermineState is called.(didEnterRegion is not called)
    Therefore, in my case, I only do startRangingBeaconsInRegion when I pass CLRegionStateInside in didDetermineState.

  • About running requestStateForRegion
    As for the series of events, I think the application has been started in the foreground.
    In my case, when I started the app while I was already in the iBeacon area,
    didDetermineState was not called, so
    requestStateForRegion to detect iBeacon.

So in my case, I only do startRangingBeaconsInRegion when I go through didDetermineState's CLRegionStateInside.

As for the series of events, I think the application has been started in the foreground.
In my case, when I started the app while I was already in the iBeacon area,
didDetermineState was not called, so
requestStateForRegion to detect iBeacon.

By the way, the iBeacon was not detected immediately after the terminal was turned on from the OFF state.
There seems to be no problem with the rest.

I hope it will be helpful.
