Insert and sniff vendor-specific information in Android beacon frames

I am creating an Android application that serves as a Wi-Fi access point. I would like to insert data in the information field of a specific supplier in the frame of the beacon. I would have another application that listens on these beacon frames and extracts data from them. Any idea how to do this?

Without a lot of experience with Android, as a rule, the availability of such functions depends on the drivers of the OS chipset. So, I suspect that this is not possible with the Android SDK, but with the NDK it may be.
