A VHDL software model for networking smart transducers through Bluetooth technology
Deepika Devarajan, Steven B. Bibyk · 2002
The interfacing of smart transducers to a wireless medium is an attractive solution for reconfigurable networks but this has not been explored extensively for small-span networks using existing wireless technology. This paper describes a software model for a network infrastructure that enables smart transducer communication through Bluetooth. The design of the network infrastructure is according to the recently standardized IEEE 1451.1 specification and uses the OBEX Session protocol. A proof-of-concept VHDL implementation of the design and the accompanying simulation output are presented.
