The new generation of Bluetooth 4.x standard will be launched in the second quarter of next year

The next-generation Bluetooth standard is expected to debut next year. After the release of Bluetooth 4.0 in 2010, the Bluetooth SIG has embarked on the development of standards for the next-generation Bluetooth version; the new version will adjust the existing Bluetooth 4.0 technology to gain access to smart home networking applications. The second quarter will be finalized.

Lv Rongliang, Technical Marketing Manager of the Greater China Region of the Bluetooth Technology Alliance, said that aiming at smart home applications, the Bluetooth Technology Alliance will push a new generation of Bluetooth 4.x standards.

Lu Rongliang, technical marketing manager of the Greater China Region of the Bluetooth Technology Alliance, said that consumers ’habits of using electronic devices will be divided into two situations in the future, mainly smartphones and tablet devices outside, and TVs at home, so The interconnection of mobile phones with Smart TVs and remote control of smart home devices with remote controllers, mobile phones or tablets will become the next popular application of Bluetooth technology.

Since the existing Bluetooth 4.0 has not been popularized, but considering the strong demand for home networking, the Bluetooth Technology Alliance will not launch a new generation of Bluetooth 5.0 for the time being, but to improve the old Bluetooth 4.0 and introduce enhanced specifications. It is expected that the new Bluetooth standard will be Released in the second quarter of next year.

From the perspective of the application mode of Bluetooth technology in smart homes, smart phones, tablet devices and remote controllers can control switches such as home appliances, gas systems and air conditioning systems through Bluetooth technology, and can be controlled by mobile phones, tablet screens or TV screens. Understand power usage, temperature and humidity.

Lu Rongliang pointed out that the Bluetooth 4.0 Smart Ready version specially designed for smartphones and tablet devices has dual mode with low power consumption (BLE) and traditional radio (Classic Radio) functions; while smart home application devices, such as Refrigerators and air conditioners use the traditional Bluetooth 2.0 standard. Although Bluetooth 4.0 Smart Ready is backward compatible with the 2.0 standard, there are still many compatibility issues.

Therefore, the new generation of Bluetooth standard will be improved for the Bluetooth 4.0 Smart Ready mechanism, so that the dual-mode version can be seamlessly compatible with many traditional Bluetooth standard devices, and the encryption protection rules of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) are strengthened to enable action The process of mutual transmission between the device, the remote control and the smart device in the home is smoother and safer.

Lu Rongliang made no denying that the biggest competitor of Bluetooth technology in the smart home market is the wireless local area network (Wi-Fi). However, because Bluetooth transmission technology has become the standard configuration of mobile phones, users can easily pair with other devices, and Wi-Fi and adjacent frequency band networks such as long-range long-distance plan (LTE) are prone to interference. Bluetooth technology has frequency hopping technology. It can maintain the stability and confidentiality of the signal.

Lu Rongliang analyzed that with the increasingly sophisticated Bluetooth technology and the gradual expansion of applications, the global Bluetooth device shipments in 2011 reached 7 billion, and it is expected to explode to 20 billion by 2017, towards stable growth.
