Reasons for Using Bluetooth
Bluetooth has emerged as a revolutionary technology for wireless communication at short distances between devices that need to ‘talk’. Bluetooth technology got a boost when the mobile phone industry adopted it as a standard for communication with other similarly enabled devices.
The main reason for the success which has come to Bluetooth can be enumerated as:-
Bluetooth allows the use of various devices and computers without the use of any cables and the reduction of hassles by not using multiplicity if cables.
Bluetooth being a license free technology is inexpensive. Bluetooth dongles are available for as low as $5 a piece. Even the manufacturers who put Bluetooth on their equipment pass on the savings of inexpensive technology to their customers.
Bluetooth provides convenience of use within an area of 10 meters and is not affected by obstacles.
Bluetooth provides compatibility to devices which have Bluetooth enabled as Bluetooth has been implemented as a standard and has been adopted by more than 2000 manufacturers.
Bluetooth uses low powered 2.4 GHZ band for radio communication and uses channel hopping to avoid any external interference even from devices using the same bandwidth and this allows crystal clear communication and error free data transfers.
Bluetooth uses very low power as the range of Bluetooth communication is only 10 meters. This does not put undue stress on battery as Bluetooth has been predominantly made for use by mobile phones where battery power needs to be conserved.
Bluetooth allows creation of a private network of maximum 7 devices and this allows perfect scenario for a home network. The network using Bluetooth is called PAN or Piconet.
Bluetooth as technology is being constantly revised and upgraded and is backward compatible. The newer versions provide for enhanced range, higher speed and other features.
All these reasons are good enough for anyone to subscribe for the standard communication protocol of Bluetooth.
