Abstract

Dans la présente invention, lors de la réception d'une notification de la position actuelle d'un dispositif terminal, un serveur se réfère à une base de données de zone de balise stockant et associant des informations d'identification de balise pour des dispositifs balises et des informations de zone de balise indiquant les zones de réception des signaux de balise émis par les dispositifs balises et extrait des dispositifs balises comprenant des zones de réception au voisinage de la position actuelle du dispositif terminal. Le serveur fournit également les informations d'identification de balise et les informations de zone de balise pour les dispositifs balises extraits au dispositif terminal. Le dispositif terminal sélectionne un nombre prescrit de dispositifs balises comportant des zones de réception à proximité de la position actuelle du dispositif terminal, sur la base des informations d'identification de balise et des informations de zone de balise fournies par le serveur, et règle les dispositifs balises sélectionnés en tant que dispositifs balises en attente.
