- Using bluetooth for Informationally Enhanced Environments
- The continued miniaturization in computing and wireless communication is about to make informationally enhanced environments become a reality. Already today, devices like a notebook computer or a personal digital assistant (PDA) can easily connect to the Internet via IEEE 802.11 networks (WaveLAN) or similar technologies provided at so-called hot-spots. In...

- bluetooth Operation
- The networking standards of Bluetooth will transmit data via low power radio frequency. Bluetooth communicates on a 2.45 GHz frequency. This very band of frequency has been set aside by international agreement for the use of industrial and medical devices. Many devices that one already known and use take advantage...

- On the Characterization of bluetooth Scatternet Topologies
- Bluetooth is an emerging short range, wireless networking standard. Using Bluetooth communication interfaces, a collection of devices can interconnect to form a scatternet. A set of n nodes can be organized into a scatternet in many different ways. This is in contrast to the classical narrowband packet radio networks or...

- A Uniform Framework for Cryptanalysis of the bluetooth E0 Cipher
- This paper analyzes the E0 cipher, which is the encryption system used in the Bluetooth specification. The paper suggests a uniform framework for cryptanalysis of the E0 cipher. The method requires 128 known bits of the keystream in order to recover the initial state of the LFSRs, which reflects the...

- MTSF: A Fast Mesh Scatternet Formation Algorithm for bluetooth Networks
- Bluetooth is a short range technology that enables the formation of wireless personal area networks (WPAN). Although a Bluetooth node can form a network, called a piconet, with other nodes within its radio range, the technology can be better exploited if multiple piconets can be interconnected to form a large...

- An Architectural Framework to Deploy Scatternet-Based Applications Over bluetooth
- Bluetooth is a promising wireless personal area network technology and is on the verge of being ubiquitously deployed over a wide range of devices. The basic unit of a Bluetooth network is a centralized master-slave topology, namely a piconet, that can be easily extended into a multi-hop adhoc network called...

- Building Efficient bluetooth Scatternet Topologies From 1-Factors
- Bluetooth introduces ad hoc connectivity into the personal area. Although only the basic single-hop star-shaped topology called piconet is currently available, Bluetooth will surely evolve towards multi-hop connectivity in the near future. These multi-hop networks (called scatternets) offer a wide range of possible topologies. In this paper it is argued...
