Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows short-range wireless connections between mobile phones, computers, and other devices. It uses a low-cost transceiver chip included in each device to transmit and receive in the 2.45 GHz frequency band, allowing data transfer up to 1 megabit per second within a 10 meter range. Bluetooth connections can be point-to-point or involve multiple devices simultaneously, and built-in security features are included to encrypt and verify transmissions.

definition Bluetooth is a telecommunications industry specification that describes how mobile phones, computers, and personal digital assistants

(PDAs) can be easily interconnected using a short-range wireless connection. Using this technology, users of cellular phones, pagers, and personal digital assistants can buy a three-in-one phone that can double as a portable phone at home or in the office, get quickly synchronized with information in a desktop or notebook computer, initiate the sending or receiving of a fax, initiate a printout, and, in general, have all mobile and fixed computer devices be totally coordinated. Bluetooth requires that a low-cost transceiver chip be included in each device. The tranceiver transmits and receives in a previously unused frequency band of 2.45 GHz that is available globally (with some variation of bandwidth in different countries). In addition to data, up to three voice channels are available. Each device has a unique 48-bit address from the IEEE 802 standard. Connections can be point-to-point or multipoint. The maximum range is 10 meters. Data can be exchanged at a rate of 1 megabit per second (up to 2 Mbps in the second generation of the technology). A frequency hop scheme allows devices to communicate even in areas with a great deal of electromagnetic interference. Built-in encryption and verification is provided. The technology got its unusual name in honor of Harald Bluetooth, king of Denmark in the mid-tenth century.
