esp-ena
Implementation of contact tracing with the Covid-19 Exposure Notification API by Apple and Google on an ESP32 (with ESP-IDF). More information about the Covid-19 Exposure Notification at Apple and Google. This is meant for people without smartphone or without smartphones with Apples/Googles implementation.
This implementation fully covers for the BLE part including the cryptography specifications needed (see Bluetooth Specifications and Cryptography Specifications documents in the links above):
- send beacons
- store TEKs on flash (last 14)
- receive beacons
- received beacons are stored after 5 minutes threshold (storage is limited, ~100k beacons can be stored)
Additional features for full ENA device
- calculating risks scores (after adding reported keys and storing exposure information)
- RTC support with DS3231
- display support with SSD1306
- interface to
- set time
Features missing for now are:
- retrieve infected list and parse from binary (started with binary parsing)
Extensions planned:
- interface to
- delete data
- show status
- report infection?
- receive infected beacons list (will test Corona Warn App)
- send infected status (will test Corona Warn App)
- battery support
- 3d print case
Limitations/Problems
- storage only ~2.8mb available
- WiFi or other external connection needed for infections status (auto-connect to open WiFis?)
- obtaining accessibility
- all parameters (scanning time, thresholds etc.)
The following acronyms will be used in code and comments:
- ENA Exposure Notification Api
- ENIN ENIntervalNumber - timestamp with 10 minutes resolution
- TEK Temporary Exposure Key - personal secret key changed every 24h, published when infected
- RPI Rolling Proximity Identifier - send and received identifer changed every 10 minutes
- AEM Associated Encrypted Metadata - send and received metadata
Open questions
- service UUID is send reversed, must RPI and AEM also beeing send in reverse? Don't know BLE specification enough
How to use
Hardware Required
For now just an ESP32 is required. For full device later RTC (DS3231) and Display (SSD1306) will be required.
Configure the project
idf.py menuconfig
required
- enable bluetooth (BLE)
- add partition-table for storage (currently hardcoded name "ena")
- mbedTLS enable HKDF
recommended
- BLE Scan Duplicate (By Device Address and Advertising Data)
debug options
- Log output set to Debug
- Exposure Notification API / Storage enable Dump storage
Build and Flash
May flash partition table:
idf.py partition_table-flash
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
(Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.)
(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-].)
Troubleshooting
Sometimes I get errors from BT-stack of ESP-IDF printed. Didn't affect functionality for now, but I also could not find out what it caused and what it means.
E (909164) BT_HCI: btu_hcif_hdl_command_complete opcode 0x2005 status 0xc
Structure
The project is divided in different components. The main.c just wrap up all components.
ena
The ena module contains the main functions of eps-ena with bluetooth scanning and adverting, storing data and handle beacons.
- ena-beacons handles scanned data by storing temporary beacons, check for threshold and store beacons permanently
- ena-crypto covers cryptography part (key creation, encryption etc.)
- ena-storage storage part to store own TEKs and beacons
- ena-bluetooth-scan BLE scans for detecting other beacons
- ena-bluetooth-advertise BLE advertising to send own beacons
- ena run all together and timing for scanning and advertising
ena-interface
Adds interface functionality via touch pads for control and setup.
i2c-main
Just start I2C driver for display and RTC.
ssd1306
I2C driver for a SSD1306 display.
