Abstract
Bluetooth is a new RF short-range wireless technology which is designed for wireless communication between different devices. There is increase in popularity of Bluetooth technology and is being accepted in today’s world. There are organizations which are doing research on Bluetooth technology, but very few of their research analysis provide a balanced view of the technology, describing its implications for businesses, pros and cons. In this paper analysis have been done keeping in mind various perspectives of the Bluetooth technology. The analysis starts with a description of the technology in terms of its network infrastructure, hardware and software. Then it is continued by the Error corrections and retransmission. The analysis is done on macro analytical view including the business implications, advantages of this technology, its role in the global third generation (3G) wireless schemes. The finally it concludes with the applications and future potentials of Bluetooth.
Keywords: Bluetooth; Bluetooth architecture; Frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS); Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol (12CAP); Personal digital assistants (PDA); Service Discovery Protocol (SDP).
