Method of processing beacon of electronic device and electronic device thereof

1. A method of an electronic device, the method comprising:

detecting entering a geo-fence;

transmitting, in response to the detecting, a message for requesting beacon link information to a server for the geo-fence;

receiving, from the server, the beacon link information comprising data regarding beacon transmitters located within the geo-fence, wherein the beacon link information comprises first data regarding identifiers (IDs) of the beacon transmitters and second data regarding services respectively associated with the IDs:

receiving, from a beacon transmitter among the beacon transmitters, a beacon signal comprising an ID of the beacon transmitter; and

providing, in response to identifying that the ID is included in the first data, a service associated with the ID based on the second data.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the message comprises identification information regarding the geo-fence.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein detecting entering the geo-fence comprises comparing a location of the electronic device with geo-fence list information comprising data regarding a plurality of geo-fences comprising the geo-fence, and

wherein the geo-fence list information comprises location information of the plurality of geo-fences and identification information of the plurality of geo-fences.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:

transmitting, to the server, a message for requesting the geo-fence list information; and

receiving, from the server, the geo-fence list information.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the beacon link information further comprises third data regarding sources respectively associated with the IDs, and

wherein the sources are used for providing the services.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein providing the service comprises:

determining, based on the third data, a source associated with the ID among the sources; and

providing the service by using the source.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein each of the sources comprises an address of a webpage or at least one value indicating a location of each of the beacon transmitters.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the at least one value comprises one or more of latitude or longitude.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the service comprises displaying a content associated with the ID, and

wherein the content comprises one or more of a webpage, map information, an e-book, an image, a user interface of an application, or a video.

10. An electronic device comprising:

one or more memories storing instructions;

a communication module; and

one or more processors, operably coupled with the one or more memories and the communication module, configured to execute the stored instructions to:

detect entering a geo-fence;

transmit, in response to the detecting, a message for requesting beacon link information to a server for the geo-fence;

receive, from the server, the beacon link information comprising data regarding beacon transmitters located within the geo-fence, wherein the beacon link information comprises first data regarding identifiers (IDs) of the beacon transmitters and second data regarding services respectively associated with the IDs;

receive, from a beacon transmitter among the beacon transmitters, a beacon signal comprising an ID of the beacon transmitter; and

provide, in response to identifying that the ID is included in the first data, a service associated with the ID based on the second data.

11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the message comprises identification information regarding the geo-fence.

12. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the stored instructions to:

detect entering the geo-fence by comparing a location of the electronic device with geo-fence list information comprising data regarding a plurality of geo-fences comprising the geo-fence, and

wherein the geo-fence list information comprises location information of the plurality of geo-fences and identification information of the plurality of geo-fences.

13. The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the stored instructions to:

transmit, to the server, a message for requesting the geo-fence list information; and

receive, from the server, the geo-fence list information.

14. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the beacon link information further comprises third data regarding sources respectively associated with the IDs, and

wherein the sources are used for providing the services.

15. The electronic device of claim 14 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute the stored instructions to:

determine, based on the third data, a source associated with the ID among the sources; and

provide the service by using the source.

16. The electronic device of claim 15 , wherein each of the sources comprises an address of a webpage or at least one value indicating a location of each of the beacon transmitters.

17. The electronic device of claim 16 , wherein the at least one value comprises one or more of latitude or longitude.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium that stores a program that, when executed, performs a method comprising:

detecting entering a geo-fence;

transmitting, in response to the detecting, a message for requesting beacon link information to a server for the geo-fence;

receiving, from the server, the beacon link information comprising data regarding beacon transmitters located within the geo-fence, wherein the beacon link information comprises first data regarding identifiers (IDs) of the beacon transmitters and second data regarding services respectively associated with the IDs;

receiving, from a beacon transmitter among the beacon transmitters, a beacon signal comprising an ID of the beacon transmitter; and

providing, in response to identifying that the ID is included in the first data, a service associated with the ID based on the second data.
