Why Memsen prefers UWB over Bluetooth for its wireless file sharing solutions?

• Memsen Corporation is building a complete wireless file-sharing platform which will benefit by Ultra- Wideband technology due to its many advantages over Bluetooth technology.

• UWB has the capacity to handle very high bandwidths required to transport multiple audio and video streams in “Real-time” between different UWB enabled devices, while Bluetooth lacks high data-rate - only 1Mbps maximum under ideal conditions, which is not enough for media rich content.

• “Real-time” means almost zero time delay in transferring Mega bits of information - our products line includes a KEY-CHAIN type peer-to-peer file sharing device which will specifically focus on media rich file sharing and aims to take advantage of high data-range of about 450 Mbps (within short range) provided by UWB technology. With the help of UWB, Memsen can offer “instant file-sharing solution” to millions of people and explore the whole new world of wireless connectivity. Obviously Bluetooth doesn’t have enough capabilities to handle instant transfer of huge information that UWB is very good at. Memsen will be able to provide low cost solution to millions of people with the help of UWB implementation. This technology promises very low battery power consumption compared with Bluetooth which is critical aspect for Memsen’s peer-to-peer file sharing KEYCHAINS, users will be able to keep their devices live without battery replacement for days and enjoy freedom of information exchange with complete peace of mind.

• We at Memsen believe in next generation wireless marketing solutions which can provide “Real-time” connectivity & data-transfer for our wireless marketing products. “Real-time” means instant data transfer between our data vendor products irrespective of size of data. Only UWB technology has that potential to fulfill our dream of connecting advertising industry with millions of people instantly, and efficiently.

• UWB provides capability of data-transfer with effective range of up to 25 meters compared with rival Bluetooth technology which offers effective range of only about 10 meters. Advertising industry can have a huge benefit using UWB enabled Memsen’s data vendor chain of products to reach millions of people efficiently, and with complete surety of reaching potential customers. Bluetooth solution for our data vendor chain of products is not feasible due to its connection time delay, interference issues, higher battery power consumption and poor communication range compared with UWB. We at Memsen believe in user satisfaction and it can only be achieved using UWB technology in our products.

• UWB provides spatial capacity of >1000 Kbps/m2 compared with about 30 Kbps/m2 with Bluetooth technology. Higher spatial capacity means capability to allocate higher bandwidth in given area, which is one of the main aspects of data vendor chain of products. With higher spatial capacity, advertising company can reach more number of people simultaneously without increasing cost and amount of time spent.

• UWB technology is also considered as replacement of USB and fire wire standards. USB is a high speed PC connectivity solution whereas firewire (IEEE 1394) is high speed consumer connectivity solution. UWB is considered as a technology that can bridge the divide between these two standards and hence can be used as replacement of USB and fire wire. Memsen’s vision is to develop wireless file sharing platform based on UWB technology which can enhance users’ experience with wireless connectivity solutions and provide complete freedom of having the very new technology in their own pocket.

What is Bluetooth Technology?

Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a current industry standard for short-range wireless connectivity. Bluetooth technology is widely used in consumer electronics for short-range wireless data transfer, like printers and digital cameras. It operates efficiently within the range of 20-25 ft in the environment without WLAN equipments. Bluetooth signals operate in the same frequency range as WI-FI (802.11b, g) standard. This is the biggest disadvantage of it because of its interference with WI-FI signals. A Bluetooth enabled device is not being able to function efficiently in the vicinity of WI-FI signals. Bluetooth technology took many years to come into mass market but still is struggling to really prove its potentials. Bluetooth faces major challenges by upcoming Ultra-Wideband standard which has many advantages such as higher data-rate and capability to co-exist with other wireless standards.

How blue tooth got its name?? King Harald Gormsson, 10th Century Danish King, is famous for ruling Denmark and then Norway between about 940 and about 986, ultimately uniting all of Scandinavia.he also had a nickname: blátǫnn in Old Norse or Blåtand in Danish. It means Bluetooth. The history throws back to 1942, when Hedy Lamarr invents the basic technology on which Bluetooth is based to make communications between ships and torpedos immune to jamming. The Navy won’t adopt it until the Cuban Missile crisis in 1962, long after her patent has expired. In 1994 Engineers at Ericsson, a Swedish communications company invent the technology later called Bluetooth. It was intended as a wireless replacement for the ubiquitous wired data standard RS232C which used to connect many types of computer peripheral devices, printers and such over short distances. Usually 6 feet or less. It never fully realized that market as the cheaper USB cable replaced RS232c and now most computer peripherals connect via Wi-Fi.1998 Bluetooth SIG formed initially consisting of the Swedish company Ericsson, Intel, Nokia, Toshiba and IBM. It now has more than 24,000 members and is in 90% of all mobile phones. (per SIG)1999 Bluetooth 1.0 Released 2005 Bluetooth 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate (EDR). Each subsequent release incorporates the compatible technologies of earlier releases.

Bluetooth Version 2 + EDR or Enhanced Data Rate uses a different method of modulation, it still uses GFSK header information (transmitter ID, packet type, packet length) but the data payload is encoded with a higher information content modulated 8 phase differential phase shift keying (8DPSK, 3bits/symbol) modulation to achieve a 3Mbps data rate. It also allows for a pi/4 Rotated differential quaternary phase shift keying (pi/4 DQPSK, 2 bits/symbol) to achieve a 2Mbps data rate.

Bluetooth technology uses radio waves, transmiting them over a shorter distance. Radios and TV broadcasts over many miles or kilometers. Bluetooth technology sends information within your Personal Area Network or “PAN” at distances up to 100 meters (328 feet)—depending upon device implementation. Bluetooth technology operates in the unlicensed industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band at 2.4 to 2.485 GHz, using a spread spectrum, frequency hopping, full-duplex signal at a nominal rate of 1600 hops/sec.

Many people still have confusion regarding Wifi and bluetooth... Bluetooth is mainly used for linking computers and electronic devices in an ad-hoc way over very short distances, often for only brief or occasional communication using relatively small amounts of data. It's relatively secure, uses little power, connects automatically, and in theory presents little or no health risk. Wi-Fi is designed to shuttle much larger amounts of data between computers and the Internet, often over much greater distances. It can involve more elaborate security and it generally uses much higher power, so arguably presents a slightly greater health risk if used for long periods. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are complementary Technologies.

Bluetooth wireless technology is built into billions of products, from cars and mobile phones to medical devices and computers and even forks and toothbrushes. Bluetooth technology allows you to share voice, data, music, photos, videos and other information wirelessly between paired device. Bluetooth Technology Applications include following and many more..:

• Mobile Phones
• Remote Speakers (AC Powered)
• Computer Speakers (Battery Powered)
• Bluetooth Transmitter
