Bluetooth: More than a cable replacement

Bluetooth technology provides short-range wireless con-nectivity between devices. Although Bluetooth technology was originally conceived as a cable replacement technology, it has emerged as a strong and versatile solution. The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has over 1,800 members, and there is a tremendous momentum to embed Bluetooth modules into a variety of devices. First, the backing of major mobile handset manufacturers convinced other companies that Bluetooth devices would be virtually ubiquitous in a few years. Second, the actual Bluetooth specification is royalty-free, thus signaling the real desire to spread the use of this technology on a truly global basis. However, in order to fully realize the potential of Bluetooth, three factors are important. silicon and concerns about the robustness of the Bluetooth specification. ABI projects that annual shipments of Bluetooth-enabled devices will reach over 1.4 billion nodes in 2005, up from just 56 million nodes in

War Nibbling: Bluetooth Insecurity

The Bluetooth protocol, which is deployed in millions of products ranging from cellular telephones to laptops, is quickly becoming the new standard for intra-device wireless communications. This paper examines methods of assessing the security of Bluetooth devices in relation to the protocol's design and implementation flaws. We will also discuss ways to proactively approach Bluetooth security and what security professionals can do to defend their organizations against unwanted compromise. Before the concepts of War Nibbling are examined in detail, it is suggested that you have a basic understanding of Bluetooth [2] technologies. The Bluetooth specification supports transmissions up to 100m with Bluetooth transceivers operating in the 2.4 GHz, ISM band; the same band WLAN devices use. Bluetooth is based upon the idea that a user should be able to create a PAN (Personal Area Network) around them. For an overview of the Bluetooth protocol layers, refer to Exhibit A, which is a

QoS Bluetooth Networking - Part I

The Quality of Service functions and procedures included in the Bluetooth 1.0 specification have been reviewed. Next issues associated with providing Quality of Service over a wireless link in general and Bluetooth in particular have been investigated. The Bluetooth technology has originally been developed as a wireless replacement for cables between electronic devices e.g. between a mobile phone and a Laptop computer. The Bluetooth architecture differs from a cellular network architecture in the sense that there are no specialized nodes, but in principle each Bluetooth device provides the same functionality. However the cost price will very much depend on the success of Bluetooth and the subsequent volumes in which the Bluetooth chip will be produced. To evaluate the most likely usage scenarios for Bluetooth, one should first consider how Bluetooth compares to other wireless technologies. CD quality audio headphones; Still picture and video; MPEGX, MP3, etc. Provide a

History, technology and products for Bluetooth

Today, there are over 2000 adopter members providing a vari-ety of chipsets, software, applications, and products incorporating Bluetooth Since Bluetooth was largely positioned as being a more capable replacement for IrDA, two key design goals were the ability for the technology to operate without requiring line of sight and allowing a concept called "pico-nets." Wireless options Bluetooth doesn't stand alone in technol-ogy options for wireless connectivity. HomeRF is an initiative to communicate with other intelligent embedded devices in the home with the home PC. Bluetooth pro-vides close to the same data rate with the added benefit of having a typical power consumption of 1mWatt. That means that Bluetooth power budget within a This makes Bluetooth a technically viable commu-nications option for handheld wireless devices desiring to accommodate voice and data services.

802.15.1(TM)-2002

Portions of this standard consist of unaltered or minimally altered text of the Bluetooth specifications (see 2.4). The Bluetooth wireless technology is an industry specification for small form factor, low-cost wireless communication and networking between personal computers (PCs), mobile phones, and other portable devices. The Bluetooth SIG wanted to have the IEEE adopt the Bluetooth specifications and make them a formal IEEE 802 standard. The IEEE requested and was granted a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable license from the Bluetooth SIG to adopt or adapt and copy a portion of the Bluetooth specifications to be used as base material in IEEE Std 802.15.1-2002. Information on the license or the current Bluetooth specifications should be directed to the Bluetooth SIG. Annex A is also a derived text and corresponds to the Bluetooth Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma, which is a separate document from the Bluetooth specifications. The purpose is

Recently the Bluetooth SIG announced that they would adopt ultrawideband (UWB) as their next-generation high-speed radio. To paraphrase Mark Twain, many journalists had "greatly exaggerated" the death of Bluetooth, but this announcement has confounded the critics and shows that Bluetooth will be around for a long time. According to high-tech market research firm In-Stat, global shipments of cellphone handsets are expected to be about 770 million units next year, and the percentage of phones using Bluetooth has risen to about 25 percent of the market. As prices for 2.4GHz Bluetooth radios drop, Bluetooth will become pervasive on more and more low-cost phones. For the short term, phone designers are planning a "two-radio" Bluetooth solution. All routine Bluetooth traffic will be handled by the conventional Bluetooth radio, and the UWB radio will be deployed only when conventional Bluetooth runs out of bandwidth. Fortunately the Bluetooth brand name carries wide

White Paper: The Evolution of JiniT Technology in Telematics

A Bluetooth profile is basically a specification for describing some standard capabilities of a Bluetooth-enabled device. Bluetooth consists of numerous protocols encompassing various layers of the OSI protocol reference model, including the physical and transport layers. A Bluetooth profile specifies which Bluetooth protocols are implemented and how they behave. A Bluetooth-enabled device only needs to support the protocols specified by the profiles it implements. For example, the PAN profiles specify a TCP/IP communications scheme for Bluetooth, and a device implementing a PAN profile must contain SDP, L2CAP, and BNEP. One should not compare Jini to Bluetooth as a whole, because they operate at different levels. Bluetooth (with the PAN profiles) offers a transport over which Jini can operate. It seems most appropriate to compare Jini with the Bluetooth profiles themselves as many Bluetooth solutions can be implemented with either a Bluetooth profile or with Jini over a
