Band 2.4 VS 5 GHz • What other devices use 2.4 GHz? • Bluetooth • Microwave oven • Remote of any kind(not inferred ) • Cordless phones • TV antennas • What other devices use 5 GHz?
5 GHz • Why don’t we use 5 GHz as much? • Limited support by devices • Limited range • Higher cost
Bluetooth • What is Bluetooth? • Just another wireless device that uses 2.4 GHz! • Short range device (98 feet) • What is so special about Bluetooth? • Introduces Wireless PAN Networks • Pare twodevices for master-slave type communication
802.15 Or P.A.N • Concept • Everyone has a small style network • Once a network collide with another you are able to share data if permitted. • What devices are considered a Pan? • Bluetooth (PS3 controller) • Infrared (GBA, controller remotes)
