BLUETOOTH REVEALED
the insider's guide TO AN
open specification FOR global wireless communications
THE AUTHORITATIVE GUIDE TO
BLUETOOTH! FROM TWO CONTRIBUTORS TO THE BLUETOOTH SPECIFICATION!
For users, the new Bluetooth
wireless standard will cut through the complexity of wireless communications, enabling
devices to communicate seamlessly. Bluetooth Revealed offers the first insider's view of
the Bluetooth standards: crucial information and insight professionals need to start
implementing Bluetooth solutions now. Written by leaders of the Bluetooth community, it
presents the entire specification in unprecedented depth: its goals, scope, stmcture,
interrelationships, and applications. Coverage includes:
Design challenges: 2.4 GHz
spectrum characteristics, power consumption, global standardization, and other key issues
Usage models: cordless
computing, advanced headsets, file transfer/sync, dial-up networking, conferencing, hidden
computing, and more
The entire Bluetooth
protocol stack: radio, baseband, and software layers; hardware and interfaces; and Link
Manager and Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol (L2CAP)
Bluetooth profiles: generic,
telephony, networking, serial and object exchange
Bluetooth Revealed previews
Bluetooth's future, including next-generation vertical and horizontal applications, and
introduces today's resources for Bluetooth development, including silicon and developer's
kits, as well as legacy product enablers. If you're intending to build, deploy, or market
Bluetooth solutions, start right here.THORS
