This addresses privacy and sustainability issues in contact tracing systems for public health during pandemics.
The paper tackled the problems of privacy, security, and sustainability in contact tracing for COVID-19 by introducing an architecture using batteryless Bluetooth Low-Energy beacons, which was experimentally tested.
Contact tracing is the techno-choice of reference to address the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of the current approaches have severe privacy and security issues and fail to offer a sustainable contact tracing infrastructure. We address these issues introducing an innovative, privacy-preserving, sustainable, and experimentally tested architecture that leverages batteryless BLE beacons.
