Bluetooth has been reputed as a wireless networking technology supplying ad-hoc networks between digital devices. In particular, bluetooth scatternet is a most essential part for dynamic ad-hoc networks. But past researches on bluetooth scatternet has hardly treated dynamic scatternet environment. In this paper, we proposed a scatternet reformation algorithm for the case that some nodes escape from the scatternet. The proposed algorithm is a general algorithm which can be applied to many types of bluetooth scatternet regardless of the topology. The proposed algorithm has short reformation time delay because the process has only page process (not including inquiry process ). The algorithm is operated based on Recovery Node Vector which is composed of Recovery Master and Recovery Slave. In this paper, we performed the real hardware experiments for evaluating the performance of the proposed algorithm. In that experiments, we measured the reformation time and reformation probability. In comparison with the case including inquiry process, the proposed algorithm had the improvement in reformation time delay and we obtained high success rate over 97%.

In this paper, a system that transmits ECG signals which get from hand baggage ECG is implemented by using Bluetooth technology. Bluetooth technology is a close range wireless communication used wireless frequency 2.4GHz bandwidth. This technology consumes very small power and provides high reliability also self error correction with high speed frequency hopping. Because every device which uses Bluetooth protocol can communicate each other. These can connect between the system implemented and any devices such as mobile telephone with Bluetooth module, notebook, and the personal mobile device. Also, the paper proposes capability of transmission to the sever of hospital through each type of wireless communication device that acquired medical information signals in mobile medical machine. The system consists of hardware parts with Bluetooth module and host part, and software parts with blutooth protocol stacks. The host precesses a connection with other device and transmits ECG signals with bluetooth frequency hopping sequence.

IoT devices are widely used in network construction and are increasing. If necessary, heterogeneous IoT devices are used for data transmission. This paper proposes to prevent the method of data loss due to differences in throughput when the local network is constructed by Bluetooth 5 and long range network does by LoRa(Long Range). Data loss occur when the data transmits through LoRa, due to the throughputs of Bluetooth 5 faster than that of LoRa. The prevent method proposed by this paper can apply not only Bluetooth 5 and LoRa but heterogeneous IoT devices and expect to prevent data loss due to differences in throughput between heterogeneous IoT devices. Also, this paper shows the simulation result by applying the proposed avoid method. In this paper, two way to the preventive method shows the data transmission ratio and amount of memory that of necessity.

Uninterrupted monitoring of multiple subjects is required for mass causality events, in hospital environment or for sports by medical technicians or physicians. Movement of subjects under monitoring requires such system to be wireless, sometimes demands multiple transmitters and a receiver as a base station and monitored parameter must not be corrupted by any noise before further diagnosis. A Bluetooth Piconet network is visualized, where each subject carries a Bluetooth transmitter module that acquires vital sign continuously and relays to Bluetooth enabled device where, further signal processing is done. In this paper, a wireless network is realized to capture ECG of two subjects performing different activities like cycling, jogging, staircase climbing at 100 Hz frequency using prototyped Bluetooth module. The paper demonstrates removal of baseline drift using Fast Fourier Transform and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform and removal of high frequency noise using moving average and S-Golay algorithm. Experimental results highlight the efficacy of the proposed work to monitor any vital sign parameters of multiple subjects simultaneously. The importance of removing baseline drift before high frequency noise removal is shown using experimental results. It is possible to use Bluetooth Piconet frame work to capture ECG simultaneously for more than two subjects. For the applications where there will be larger body movement, baseline drift removal is a major concern and hence along with wireless transmission issues, baseline drift removal before high frequency noise removal is necessary for further feature extraction.

In this paper, we propose that it can control the interior lighting, LED and alarm clocks based on Bluetooth. The proposed 'Bluetooth based LED Alarm Lamp'may be an ON / OFF by using a Bluetooth module, by the light sensor and voltage transformers were designed to adjust the ON / OFF and light intensity. Also 7-segment display the clock, it was used a piezo-buzzer that designed to ring an alarm in time. And to decrease the voltage by using the touch sensor can adjust the light brightness. It was also added the ability to align the alarm. This piece (Bluetooth based LED Alarm Lamp) can provide a comfortable environment inside the room of a resident if the environment is dark when voltage is maintained to be ON automatic system. And designed with emphasis being able to improve the quality of sleep due to weak light.

Today, although most bluetooth hands-free devices within a vehicle provide telephone service functions such as voice communication, caller id display and SMS message display and so on, they do not provide a function that displays Internet-based text data. We need to develop a scheme that displays the internet-based text data including existing hands-free function because the request for using the Internet service is increasing within a vehicle recently. The proposed bluetooth device application includes advanced function such as SNS message arrival notification, the message display function and we chose Android as the implementation mobile platform giving consideration to the fact that most SNS applications operate on Android and the platform is easily embedded into small embedded device. Smartphone or tablet PC connected with the proposed bluetooth device is an Android-based device and we designed a form of Android app for the function implementation of the devices. When the audio-text gateway app receives SNS text data, it extracts title and sender information from the message header information in a form of text data and sends them via ACL (Asynchronous Connection-Oriented) link to the bluetooth device showing the data on the screen. Android-based bluetooth devices are not possible to play voice through speaker because the bluetooth hands-free or headset profile ported within Android platform normally only includes audio gateway's function. The proposed bluetooth device application, therefore, applies the streaming scheme that sends data via ACL link instead of the way that sending them via SCO (Synchronous Connection-Oriented) link.

In this paper, a point-to-multipoint wireless communication system based on Bluetooth specifications, which is possibly applied to very large vessels, is implemented and analyzed. Here, a communication network is composed of a slave Bluetooth module connected to the task computer and multiple master Bluetooth modules equipped with a sensor. And exploiting the point-to-multipoint data communication among the Bluetooth modules, a surveillance system that recognizes and controls a variety of emergency situations happened on a large vessel is implemented. It is, therefore, considered that the wireless communication system implemented in this paper is possibly exploited a basic technology for the digital shipbuilding of the next generation.
