First Layer: DSGW-340 BLE WiFi LTE Gateway and Health Monitors
The first lightweight portable BLE gateway is responsible for collecting health data from a range of BLE-based health monitors, including blood pressure monitors, pulse oximeters, ECG monitors, and more. And then it aggregates the data and uses Wi-Fi or LTE connectivity to securely transmit this data reliably and securely to the dedicated cloud platforms.
Second Layer - Cloud-Based Platforms by Healthcare Provider
In this layer, healthcare providers host cloud-based platforms specifically designed to receive, store, and manage patient health data. The health data transmitted from the BLE gateway is stored securely in the cloud-based platform. This data can include historical records, trends, and real-time measurements.
Third Layer - Healthcare Apps
Healthcare management console: Authorized healthcare professionals can access data from the platform, send notifications and personalized recommendations to patients.
review it, and perform data analysis to identify trends, anomalies, and potential health issues.
Patient-Facing Apps: The third layer involves healthcare apps designed for patients or end-users. These apps can be installed on smartphones, tablets, or other connected devices.

Use Cases of Bluetooth Modules
BLE is a low-cost technologies that widely used in a wide range of consumer electronics. Its low power consumption makes it ideal for battery-operated devices to extends the operational life. Meanwhile, Bluetooth 5’s increased data transfer bandwidth to 2Mbps without a significant increase in power consumption opens up new possibilities for data-intensive applications. In addition, the Bluetooth ecosystem has expanded to include support for smartphones, sensor technologies, and cloud service platforms. This integration paves the way for IoT-based solutions in various domains, including smart homes, healthcare, industrial control, smart apartments, and smart cities. As Bluetooth technology continues to evolve and mature, its versatility, affordability, and power efficiency will definitely make it a fundamental enabler in the ever-expanding IoT landscape.
Smart Plugs: Smart plugs equipped with BLE modules allow users to remotely turn connected devices on or off using a smartphone app. This remote control capability is convenient for managing appliances, lamps, or other devices, especially when users are away from home. Meanwhile, smart plugs with integrated BLE modules are typically compact in design and unobtrusive in space.
Health Monitors: compact and lightweight BLE modules can be easily integrated into small wearable devices that users can comfortably wear throughout the day, and continuously track of specific health metrics for real-time monitoring and data synchronization. Health data collected can be transmitted to a dedicated cloud platform or authorized healthcare systems, enabling remote patient monitoring and timely interventions.
Wireless Industrial Control: BLE modules are increasingly being used in wireless industrial status detection, sensor networks, and asset tracking. Waterproof BLE beacon sensors can be strategically placed on machinery and equipment to monitor their condition as well as to enable real-time tracking and location monitoring. This enhance communication, monitoring, and automation in industrial environments.
Smart Parking: BLE modules are commonly used in smart parking systems to improve parking management, increase efficiency, and enhance the overall user experience. BLE beacons can be installed to detect the presence or absence of vehicles in real-time. When a vehicle enters or exits a parking space, the BLE module communicates this information to a central control system via the BLE beacon gateways.
Smart Building Automation: BLE modules are versatile tools in smart building automation. They allow for smart lighting control, HVAC control, occupancy sensing, access control, energy management, asset tracking and indoor navigation, emergency notification, etc., enabling real-time monitoring, energy conservation, improved security, and enhanced user experiences within modern buildings.
FAQs of Bluetooth Low Energy Modules
Does all BLE modules can be used to develop Bluetooth gateways?
Not all BLE modules are ideally suited for developing IoT gateways, especially when they need to perform indoor positioning tasks like scanning for nearby BLE beacons. In this situation, BLE modules with strong receiving sensitivity is critical for gateway to scan for BLE devices and beacons over longer distances or in challenging indoor environments with obstacles.
EFR32BG21vs EFR32BG22, what’s the difference?
The EFR32BG22 BLE SoC is an enhanced version of the EFR32BG21, offering a more powerful processor, increased flash and RAM capacity, and similar connectivity and security features.
I want to parse data locally, not transmit data packets directly to the cloud platform, can you help with that?
Certainly, if you want to parse data locally without transmitting data packets directly to a cloud platform, you can achieve this by customizing the firmware running on the Bluetooth gateway. This approach allows you to add intelligence and customization to your IoT solution, and enables the real-time decision-making. Know more about our edge computing IoT gateways.
Can a BLE module be main control module or communication module?
A BLE module can serve both as a main control module and a communication module, depending on how it is integrated into a specific device or application. The role it plays largely depends on the design and functionality of the device in which it is used. In many cases, a BLE module is primarily used as a communication module. Its main purpose is to establish and manage wireless communication between the device it’s integrated into (the host device) and other BLE devices, such as sensors, smartphones, tablets, or other peripherals. In some applications, a BLE module may act as the main control module for the host device. In this role, it takes on more responsibilities related to the device’s operation and functionality.
