Definition of Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short range (10-100 m) and low-cost wireless network system to replace cables and give RF connection between consumer devices.

What is Bluetooth?
o

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology.

Why this name?


o

It was taken from the 10th century Danish King Harald Blatand who unified Denmark and Norway.

When does it appear?


1994 Ericsson study on a wireless technology to link mobile phones & accessories. o 5 companies (Ericssn,Nokia,IBM,Toshiba & Intel)joined to form the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) in 1998 named. o First specification released in July 1999.
o

Uses the radio range of 2.45 GHz Theoretical maximum bandwidth is 1 Mb/s Several Bluetooth devices can form an adhoc network called a piconet In a piconet one device acts as a master (sets frequency hopping behavior) and the others as slaves Example: A conference room with many laptops wishing to communicate with each Other

Laptops Cellular phones Personal Digital Assistants Headsets Printers Keyboards/mice GPS, etc Major use in consumer Electronics.

Allows up to 8 devices to communicate in a local network called a Piconet, also known as a Personal Area Network or PAN Because of its low power consumption, its range is limited to 10 m. However, range can be increased to 100 m by employing a scatternet topology or a higher powered antenna Three classes of Bluetooth devices -Class 3 radios have a range of up to 1 meter or 3 Feet. -Class 2 radios most commonly found in mobile devices have a range of 10 meters or 30 feet -Class 1 radios used primarily in industrial use cases have a range of 100 meters or 300 feet

The Bluetooth standard is maintained and published by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) Includes thousands of member companies Covers topics such as interoperability, testing and qualification of bluetooth devices Most important, outlines the specifications for: - Bluetooth Radio - Baseband - LMP Link Manager Protocol

Responsible for link set-up between devices, including security functions : Authentication Encryption

Authentication The process of verifying 'who' is at the other end of the link. Authentication is performed for devices. In Bluetooth, this is achieved by the authentication procedure based on the stored link key or by pairing (entering a PIN). Authentication device A device whose identity has been verified during the lifetime of the current link based on the authentication procedure.

If at least one authentication has been performed encryption may be used. If the master wants all slaves in the piconet to use the same encryption parameters it must issue a temporary key (K master ) and make this key the current link key for all slaves in the piconet before encryption is started. This is necessary if broadcast packets should be encrypted.

Infrared IrDA (WPAN) : synchronization, link between a phone and a laptop Less flexible than Bluetooth, need of a line of site Comparable data rate Wi-Fi (WLAN) : Wireless LAN access Far higher bandwidth and data rate than Bluetooth Higher power consumption than Bluetooth Requires infrastructure investment

Success of Bluetooth depends on how well it is integrated into consumer products -Consumers are more interested in applications than the technology -Bluetooth must be successfully integrated into consumer -- products -Must provide benefits for consumer -Must not destroy current product benefits Key Success Factors -Interoperability -Mass Production at Low Cost -Ease of Use -End User Experience
