Bluetooth PHYs and Ranges - Part 2
Excerpt From Bluetooth Vulnerabilities (Part 2) Webinar
Find out more about the Bluetooth PHYs and Ranges Presented by CTO, Dr. Brett Walkenhorst
In the history of Bluetooth technology, data rates have evolved from one, two, and three megabit per second for Bluetooth Classic, and one megabit per second for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). With version five of the spec, new modes were introduced, including a two-megabit mode for increased speed and coded phi for extended range. Tests carried out by several groups applying a combination of directional antennas, signal amplifiers, and coded phi, revealing larger distances were attainable even if usual link ranges were just fifty to a hundred meters.
