Abstract

Wireless home networking is being addressed bynumerous groups such as the HomeRF working group,and the Bluetooth consortium. Of these, Bluetoothtechnology promises a wider acceptance in term of homenetworking in the near future. The potential of easilyembedding Bluetooth technology in communicationdevices, computing devices and home appliances make ita more attractive alternative to SWAP. Although thelayer up to the data link layer has been standardized bythe Bluetooth consortium how complete homenetworking solutions can be realized is still not clear.This paper addresses this aspect and proposes a way toestablish complete home network deploying Bluetoothtechnology
