 Bluetooth is a standard
for tiny, radio frequency
chips that can be
plugged into your
devices
These chips were
designed to take all of the
information that your wires
normally send, and transmit
it at a special
frequency to something
called a receiver Bluetooth
chip.
The information is then transmitted to your device

that you must have:

Transceivers and Receivers that can

send and receive data because they use

Radio Waves.
MAC Address (Physical Address)
Burnt on the NIC card by the manufacturer.

PIN Number
To identify the user using the device.
A Piconet
A FHHS protocol

Piconet session is a communication

link that must be created between
devices for devices to communicate
with each other.

This

is done when the MAC address

and the PIN number match.

If two devices come onto contact with each

other( 32 feet) the user will be prompted to
initiate a communication session

Users then can either deny or accept the

request to initiate a session

Only devices approved by the user can

take part in the session

Data will appear as noise to unauthorized

devices(A great security feature).

What is Bluetooth Technology:

It comprises of a base band processor, a radio and an antenna .
The base-band processor converts the data into signals, the
antenna of another blue tooth device, within at least 30 feet
distance,
receives a transmitted signal in the air.
It uses a frequency
hopping spread spectrum
technique (FHSS) - which
is one of two basic
modulation techniques
used in spread spectrum
signal transmission.
Frequencies are switched
repeatedly during radio
transmission to help
reduce unlawful access
or other means of
telecommunications to
cross paths and cause
interruption

Bluetooth devices use a protocol called

(FHHS) Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum .

Uses packet-switching to send data.

Bluetooth sends packets of data on a range of

frequencies.

In each session one device is a master and

the others are slaves.

The master device decides at which frequency

data will travel.

Transceivers hop among 79 different

frequencies in the 2.4 GHz baud at a rate
of 1600 frequency hops per second.

The master device tells the slaves at what

frequency data will be sent.

This technique allows devices to

communicate with each other more
securely.

Communicates on the 2.45 GHz frequency

In this technique, a device will use 79 individual,

randomly chosen frequencies within a designated range
Transmitters change frequency 1600 times a second

 There

are two technologies that have

been developed as wireless cable
replacements: Infrared (IRDA) and
radio (Bluetooth).

Intended for point to point links

Limited to line of sight
have a narrow angle (30 degree cone),
Low penetration power
Distance covered is low(1 meter approx)
have a throughput of 9600 bps to 4 Mbps
IrDA has proven to be a popular
technology with compliant ports currently
available in an array of devices including:
embedded devices, phones, modems,
computers (PCs) and laptops, PDAs,
printers, and other computer peripherals

PIO8 is used to control LED indicating the status. It will blink after power on.
PIO9 is used to control LED indicating paring. It will be steady on when paring is
successful.
PIO11 is used to set this two mode: AT command mode (if the pin is connect to 3.3V) or
Automatic binding transparent data mode (if the pin is connect to GND). The AT command
mode is used to configure some characteristics of the device (for example the Master,
Slave or Loopback modes).
