Many applications use Bluetooth-based ranging and localization using received signal strength indication (RSSI), including access control in vehicles and buildings, asset tracking, indoor navigation, and proximity services. Ranging determines the distance from one location to another and it is possible to localize a Bluetooth® device with distance measurement from multiple Bluetooth devices in known fixed […]
The development of Bluetooth® Low Energy angle of arrival location solutions requires multi-disciplinary co-operation in application software, firmware, receiver antenna and tag design. We will showcase an angle of arrival solution based on the co-operation and expertise of four different companies, each specialized in their own area. For developers, the completed tag design with a […]
Bluetooth® Channel Sounding is an upcoming feature enables secure, fine ranging between two Bluetooth devices. Channel Sounding will introduce a distance estimation technique that is interoperable, secure, and accurate over a Bluetooth® LE connection, with no extra BOM required. This session introduces Channel Sounding through IoT and automotive use cases to illustrate how the feature […]
Bluetooth™ LE recently introduced periodic advertising with responses (PAwR), a bidirectional communication feature with precise timing. PAwR enables large-scale, low-power bi-directional networks. It benefits physical retail’s Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) market and extends to asset monitoring, manufacturing, and logistics. This presentation tests a large-scale network with PAwR using Bluetooth ESL Profile and Service. The network […]
In September 2023, the Bluetooth SIG announced Bluetooth® Mesh feature enhancements, a significant milestone in wireless mesh networking. Bluetooth Mesh now includes a host of compelling features, including Over-the-Air firmware updates, remote provisioning, and directed forwarding, among others. This presentation provides an insightful exploration of some of these new features and how they improve network […]
A new age of Bluetooth® technology is here. Qualcomm Technologies is enabling new user experiences with LE Audio across the, providing flexible, scalable solutions. By working closely with the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) on the exciting new Auracast™ broadcast audio profile, we are now able to bring very simple transmitter devices to public locations, […]
In the beginning of 2023, Bluetooth SIG published a new version of Core specification, which enabled two new features, the Periodic Advertising with Responses (PAwR) and the Encrypted Advertising Data (EAD). Soon after the new version of the Core was published, new Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) service and profile specifications were released. The ESL feature […]
In this whitepaper, we explore the challenges of antenna design for small Bluetooth devices and how to deploy antenna-integrated SiP modules to reduce the device size, development time, and costs without compromising RF performance.
If you’ve wondered whether advertising in Bluetooth Low Energy can be bidirectional, then this post is for you. If you’ve recently come across the term PAwR and you’ve wondered what it means, then this article is also for you.
As a leading player in the semiconductor industry committed to the development of cutting-edge applications in the IoT-enabled world of today, Silicon Labs stands tall among its competitors when it comes to enhancing the scope of potential applications for Bluetooth LE enabled devices. Be it smart homes, smart retail, connected health or Industrial IoT, Silicon […]
