The Bluetooth® Story

By eliminating wires and simplifying connections between everyday appliances, Bluetooth wireless technology influences our lives in many ways.
   

Mobile phones, PCs and PDAs are connected quickly and easily whenever we want. But Bluetooth is not confined to the office - home applications include, portable music players, digital cameras, kitchen appliances and children's toys. In future, Bluetooth technology will be found in the automotive, avionics and industrial controls markets.

Bluetooth technology provides us with a personal networking environment, but more than that, we expect to find it in public places, such as shopping centres, sports stadiums and airports.

Industry forecasts predict that hundreds of millions of Bluetooth products will be sold annually. We all know about this massive market, but the technology brings with it something that will be new to many engineers - the need for RF test at a frequency of 2.4 GHz.

     
  The success of the Bluetooth standard will depend on users of the technology enjoying reliable, high-quality connections. We will to use products out of the box - to provide immediate connectivity.

Anritsu recognises the importance of Bluetooth link quality to the success of the technology and to the reputation of the products in which it is embedded, so we have developed a series of test solutions to help in development and production test of Bluetooth modules and Bluetooth products - quickly and at low cost.

Bluetooth wireless Interfaces present a new challenge to many manufacturers. The combination of leading-edge RF and protocol technologies, coupled with the requirement to get implementation costs down, puts particularly high demands on the test department.

The challenge is to develop test procedures that are comprehensive in terms of both RF and functional test, but which are fast and initiated through a simple user interface. RF at 2.4 GHz is not easy to test. The integration of a module into an OEM product will not necessarily produce predictable results, and the performance of every item will be different, this makes it essential to test to a known set of parameters using an instrument traceable to International Standards.

Anritsu knows the importance of test for RF products. We know that in an OEM production environment, the key requirement will be to validate performance in the shortest time. Production engineers will need to decide on a subset of the Bluetooth RF test specification that is appropriate to their product's requirements.
