It separates the frequency band into hops. This
spread spectrum is used to hop from one channel to
another, which adds a strong layer of security. IX-BLUETOOTH IN FUTURE
Seven to eight devices can be networked in a piconet. Bluetooth is a continually expanding technology.
There are plans to add many new application profiles.
Signals can be transmitted even through walls and With over 15000 companies working on Bluetooth,
