The convergence of computing and communications has led to the development of Bluetooth technology. Taking the short-range wireless data usage to a new level, this technology is predicted to dominate both the home and business markets. Now no more complicated tangle of cables and wires are required to connect electronic equipment. A revolutionary technology called Bluetooth allows for the replacement of the cumbersome cables used today to connect a laptop to a cellular phone with one universal low-cost, short-range radio link. Printers, PDAs, desktops, fax machines, keyboards, and virtually any other digital device can be a part of the Bluetooth system. Bluetooth is faster than mobile phones, including the upcoming third-generation, or 3G, high-speed wireless data transmission. The technology Bluetooth is a universal radio interface in the 2.45GHz ISM frequency band to function on a worldwide basis. The interface consists of hardware using ICs, a radio frequency chip, and a baseband chip. These parts work together to put a radio signal into the air that can communicate to another chipset imbedded in other product. This makes ...
... it easier to do everything, from networking different types of computers to transferring data between digital telephones.Bluetooth can transmit through solid, non-metal objects. Its nominal link range is from 10 cm to 10 m, which can be extended to 100 m by increasing the transmit power. Designed to operate in a noisy radio frequency environment, the Bluetooth radio uses a fast acknowledgement and frequency hopping scheme to make the link robust. Bluetooth radio modules avoid interference from other signals by hopping to a new frequency after transmitting or receiving packet.Short range and fast hopping limit the impact of domestic and professional microwave ovens. Use of forward error correction (FEC) limits the impact of random noise on long-distance links. The encoding is optimised for an uncoordinated environment.The Bluetooth baseband protocol is a combination of circuit and packet switching. Slots can be reserved for synchronous packets. Each packet is transmitted in a different hop frequency. A packet nominally covers a single slot, but can be extended to cover up to five slots.The technology supports both isochronous and asynchroous services; easy integration of TCP/IP for networking. It can support an asynchronous data channel, up to three simultaneous synchronous voice channels, or a channel which simultaneously supports asynchronous data and synchronous voice. Each voice channel supports 64kbps synchronous (voice) link. The asynchronous channel can support an asymmetric link of maximally 721 kbps in either direction, while permitting 57.6 kbps in the return direction, or a 432.6kbps symmetric link.
