Can we use beacon as a broadcaster and observer in thingy 52? Please suggest the way how to enable led indication using the distance generated from RSSI value and the data sent between two beacon non connectable devices?

Please don't put the entire question in the title:

A "beacon", by definition, is just a broadcaster.

But an nRF52 can certainly perform both Central and Peripheral roles.

You can't really compute distance from RSSI value - the best you can get is a near/far estimate.

You can put data in the Advertising
