Frequency hop selection in the Bluetooth radio system

Abstract

Recently, a new universal radio interface was developed enabling electronic devices to connect and communicate via short-range radio links. The Bluetooth radio technology is regarded as a complement and an extension to existing wireless technologies, addressing the inter-device connectivity enabled by low-power, small-sized, and low-cost radios. The Bluetooth radio applies frequency hopping. The subject of this paper is the Bluetooth frequency hopping scheme and its system performance under various circumstances.
