MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611053069 A) filed by Vishal Soni, Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on April 25, for 'system and method for offline bluetooth low energy commerce offer delivery, tiered proximity notification allocation, proximity attestation, infrastructure-free ble mesh group coordination, and privacy-preserving selective discovery.'
Inventor(s) include Advit Soni; Agam Soni; and Vishal Soni.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A system and methods for offline multi-hop Bluetooth Low Energy commerce delivery, in which a general-purpose smartphone acts as the outlet, the complete offer payload is embedded in each GATT packet, and no node requires network connectivity. A server ranks outlets by subscription tier for notification slot selection and configures each with a tier-derived RSSI detection floor. The server aggregates multi-outlet proximity events into a visit session and delivers one digest notification. An acknowledgment packet carrying a daily-salted token and hop counter enables offline proximity attestation for non-probabilistic retail media attribution. A private-mode method makes a device discoverable only to trusted contacts via advertisement-layer marking, with automatic suspension upon emergency. An infrastructure-free group method distributes a group identifier to member devices without server involvement; non-member nodes silently relay group packets; a roll call verifies member presence; and a muster packet broadcasts assembly coordinates over the mesh."
