Study Notes
Bluetooth Technology
- Wireless technology for short-range communication between devices
- Invented by Dr. Jaap Haartsen at Ericsson in the 1990s
- Name derived from Harald Bluetooth, a 10th-century Danish king
- Uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band
- Frequency hopping minimizes interference with other technologies like Wi-Fi and ZigBee
- Ideal for short-range devices like headphones, keyboards
History of Bluetooth
- 1800s: Radio wave principles laid foundation
- 1994: Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) formed, established standard, protected protocols
- 1996: Named after Harald Bluetooth's decayed tooth, initials in logo (H, B)
