On what frequency does Bluetooth transmit?
Bluetooth is a transmission standard that makes it possible to exchange data wirelessly between two devices over a short distance. For this to work, both devices need a specific chip. The transmission runs thereby over a predefined frequency.
With this frequency Bluetooth transmits
If you want to connect two devices with each other, Bluetooth is a good choice. This wireless connection provides wireless data transmission between devices. Since the transmitting power of Bluetooth is 1 mW, the distance between the two devices is limited to a few meters. Depending on the Bluetooth class, however, the range can vary and even be 100 meters for class 1.- The frequency range of Bluetooth is between 2.402 and 2.480 GHz.
- The width of the 79 channels is 1 MHz. The frequency jumps up to 1,600 times within one second between 79 frequencies, this is also called Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum, FHSS for short.
- By frequency hopping interference with other devices transmitting in the same frequency can be reduced.
- Since version 1.0, the Bluetooth standard has changed in many areas. Meanwhile, there is already version 5.
- In the latest Bluetooth version, you can expect a data rate of 2 Mbps. Zudem wurde der Entfernungsbereich auf 40 Meter erhöht.
- Ab Version 4.0 wurde der Standard immer häufiger in den verschiedenen Geräten verbaut. Dabei ging es vor allem um die Low-Energy-Technologie, die dafür gesorgt hat, dass Bluetooth kaum Ressourcen des Geräts benötigt.
