History & Working of BLUETOOTH

Hello Friends...............I would like to share the History and working of BLUETOOTH..Its a software which is used in almost all the mobiles to share Information/Data within a Limited area...

History :

The word was borrowed from the 10th century, second King of Denmark, King Harald Bluetooth.
Transmission over Short Distances
The Bluetooth RF transceiver lies at the physical layer. There are 79 Bluetooth channels spaced 1MHz apart. A spread spectrum technology is used at the physical layer. Both voice and data transmissions over short distances are possible, creating wireless PANs.



Working :


Instructions to Communicate
A Bluetooth device consists of an adapter. A Bluetooth adapter can be built into a device or can be in the form of a card that connects to a device. Instructions are embedded into the device, which enable it to communicate with other devices.

Packet Segmentation and Reassembly
When devices come in each other's radio range, their link managers discover each other. Link management protocol (LMP) engages itself in peer-to-peer message exchange. LMP layer performs link setup and negotiation of packet size. Segmentation and reassembly of packets is done, if needed.

Connection Sets Up
The service delivery protocol enables a Bluetooth device to join a piconet. A device inquires what services are available with the piconet. Bluetooth GlobalID (a unique identification for each device in the network) is exchanged between the devices. Their profiles are matched and a connection is set up.

Signal Transfer
Bluetooth uses frequency hopping in time slots, which means that the Bluetooth signals avoid interference with other signals by hopping to a new frequency after transmission or reception of every packet. One packet can cover up to five time slots. Bluetooth can support an asynchronous data channel, or up to 3 simultaneous synchronous voice channels, or a channel, which concurrently supports asynchronous data and synchronous voice.

Master Slave
Bluetooth technology makes use of the concept of a master and slave. Devices have to wait until the master allows them to talk! One master and up to seven slaves employ a star topology to form a piconet and begin to communicate with one another.

It is the process how Bluetooth works.Stay Updated to our Blog For more Interesting and Useful Information.
