Low-power considerations in the design of Bluetooth

Sven Mattisson · ISLPED'00: Proceedings of the 2000 International Symposium on Low Power Electronics and Design (Cat. No.00TH8514) · 2000

In this paper, we review the Bluetooth technology, a new universal radio interface enabling electronic devices to connect and communicate wirelessly via short-range connections. Motivations for the radio requirements are given, and the implications of system parameters like operating modes, frequency hopping and interference resistance are discussed from a low-power perspective. Specific characteristics enabling low-cost single-chip implementations and supporting low power consumption are outlined.
