History
Bluetooth Technology was named after
Harold Blattand (Bluetoothe) II, who was the
King of Denmark from 940-981 and was
generally considered a “unifying figurehead”
in Europe during that period. The unification
of Europe and the unification of PDAs and
computing devices is the parallelism that the
founders of this technology sought to create
when they chose the name Bluetooth.

Bluetooth began in 1994 when Ericsson was


looking for inexpensive radio interfaces
between cell phones and accessories such as
PDAs. In 1998, Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Nokia
and Toshiba formed the Bluetooth Special
Interest Group (SIG) and expanded to over
1000 members by 1999, including Microsoft.

hopping spread-spectrum.
 Provides a secure way to connect and exchange
information
 Ability to interpret another bluetooth profile
Bluetooth connectivity
Advantages

 Free transfer of data
Disadvantages
 Short range (10 meters)
 Small throughput rates
e.g. Data Rate 1.0 Mbps
 Mostly for personal use (PANs).
 Not suitable for large data.

 QoS improvements
Conclusion

Bluetooth technology has continued to


mature and now you can create new
connections that weren’t possible using
wires, like connecting your mobile phone to
your car stereo, or printing a picture directly
from your camera phone
