Bluetooth Operation

Overview The networking standards of Bluetooth will transmit data via low power radio frequency. Bluetooth communicates on a 2.45 GHz frequency. This very band of frequency has been set aside by international agreement for the use of industrial and medical devices. Many devices that one already known and use take advantage of this frequency band. Garage door openers, baby monitors, and the next generation of mobile phones all use this frequency within the ISM band. Ensuring that Bluetooth and the other devices don't interfere with each other is a crucial part of the design process.

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Mobile guesses

From the cordless keyboard and mouse, to the next generation white goods (washing machines, cookers, freezers and so on) and brown goods (TVs, hi-fis and so on) will not only have Intel Inside but Bluetooth and Wi-Fi also.

The A to Z of wireless

Current Bluetooth devices can only transmit data at speeds of up to 3Mbps and over distances from 10 to 100 metres, but ultra wide band (UWB) enhanced Bluetooth is expected to reach transfer rates of up to 200Mbps.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
