Week 7 of FYP 1

Date: 28 - 31/10/2013 (Monday - Thursday)

Title: Research and Findings (Bluetooth Module)

- This project will transmit data from PIC via Bluetooth Module to Android phone. Likely, my project also detailed how Android phone communicate with PIC through Bluetooth Module.

ANALYSIS

- Currently, most alarm notification solutions have been done via the use of conventional technologies, buzzer, and human inspection. With the introduction of newer mobile devices equipped with Bluetooth, it is possible to replace older notification technology with the use of Bluetooth technology. Bluetooth allows the development of wireless alarm notification. This research attempts to find the use of Bluetooth technology in access control applications.

FINAL FINDINGS

Title: Bluetooth classification and security

BLUETOOTH RANGE

- There are three classes in Bluetooth which depends on the power that it needs to broadcast. The exact range of the Bluetooth broadcast depends on the surroundings.

Bluetooth Range

Class 1 – 100 meters range with maximum permitted power set at 5mW.

Class 2 – 10 meters range with maximum permitted power set at 2.5mW.

Class 3 – 1 meter range with maximum permitted power set at 1mW.
