Technology is constantly advancing in all different directions. Some see it as a good thing others see it as a horrible tragedy. Personally I feel that with out technology the quality of the lives we live would still be the same we just would not be able to communicate with each other as easily. Communicating with each other is a very important and vital brick in the building block of our daily lives. Just imagine how much you could get accomplished if you could not communicate with anyone; other than those close enough to you to talk to. Imagine if it still took three or four days to get a letter from California to New York. Would businesses be able to operate at the same speed? Communications however, effects much more than just the business world. Communications effects our daily lives. Recently a new technology was introduced to the electronics world. This technology is known as Bluetooth. Bluetooth is a wireless networking standard for your personal area that provides license-free operation in Europe, Japan, and the United States. What makes Bluetooth so special is its ability to create a wireless link betw
een devices equipped with this new technology.
Data terminal equipment (DTE) uses a method of establishing a temporary full-duplex connection to another data station known as circuit switching. Once a connection is made the channel and the bandwidth provided by the switching network become exclusive to the equipment being used until the connection is broken by one of the stations. Once a switched connection is made all of the data being communicated is transmitted on the same channel for the entire transmission. No time buffering is necessary making this method of exchanging data very effective when you are dealing with high data transfer rates.
Bluetooth technology seems to be a very important step in communications field. Being able to update the files in your personal computer through your laptop, or access the Internet through your phone or digital planner can prove to be almost a necessity in big business today. This however is only the first step. The kind of technological advances that we can expect to see in the not so distant future will probably be shocking. Hopefully with all of this technology at our fing
