1. Introduction
1.1 Bluetooth Technology
Bluetooth is an internationally standardized technology supporting short distance wireless communications. Any two
Bluetooth-compatible equipments, such as mobile phone, PDA、PC, headset, mouse, keyboards, printer, etc. can
wirelessly communicate with each other via Bluetooth connection. To ensure worldwide compatibility, Bluetooth
operates on the globally available ISM (Industrial Scientific and Medical) frequency band. Within 2.4 GHz and 2.48
GHz, Bluetooth transmits data up to either 10 meters (CLASS II mode) or 100 meters (CLASS I mode) using 79
frequency hopping channels.
Though line-of-sight is not required, Bluetooth connections could be subject to interferences from obstructions such
as walls, human bodies, and other electronic devices. In addition, due to variations on product implementation, it is
likely that Bluetooth equipments from different manufactures have interoperability issues. In that case, you may
consult with manufactures to check product compatibility.
Note that, there could be some restrictions imposing on using Bluetooth devices in some countries. Please check with
your local authorities.
