Bluetooth -
Operation, Procedures & Testing - Reloaded

• This unique course first explains the origins of Bluetooth and the business perspective of Bluetooth. The student obtains a detailed knowledge about the various sources and administratives for a successful Bluetooth implementation.
• The next part of the course is dedicated to the core specification of Bluetooth and a detailed consideration of the various parts of the Bluetooth protocol stack, including functions like pairing, security or power control and energy saving modes (e.g. BLE).
• Special focus is given to a detailed understanding of the lower layers of the Bluetooth protocol stack (Baseband, Link Controller, Link Manager) and an understanding of the signal processing chain within the Baseband.
• An important focus of this course lies on the updates with Bluetooth specification version 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 namely the realization of the EDR-feature and of low energy operation
• The course has been extended by a consideration Bluetooth interoperability issues, especially with WiFi and LTE, and we will pinpoint some workarounds in case for interference situations.
• Of course, we put in the specifics and functions of various Bluetooth profiles, like for example GAP, SPP or A2DP, to name a few.

As in all INACON training courses we integrated several interactive exercises for a perfect learning experience.
