Smart IoT over high speed network and high performance smart devices explodes the ubiquitous services and applications. Nearest Neighbor(NN) query is one of the important type of queries that have to be supported for ubiquitous information services. In order to process efficiently NN queries in the wireless broadcast environment, it is important that the clients determine quickly the search space and filter out NN from the candidates containing the search space. In this paper, we propose a hybrid index of Voronoi and grid partition to provide quick search space decision and rapid filtering out NN from the candidates. Grid partition plays the role of helping quick search space decision and Voronoi partition providing the rapid filtering. We show the effectiveness of the proposed index by comparing the existing indexing schemes in the access time and tuning time. The evaluation shows the proposed index scheme makes the two performance parameters improved than the existing schemes.
