Improve Bluetooth Product Reliability with Rigorous Test
Suites
A host of suites are included to ensure your
Bluetooth technology application will be rigorously tested and
ready for deployment. These profiles are currently provided,
with more on the way:
A2DP - Advanced Audio Distribution Profile is for
streaming one-way, stereo audio, such as from a media player to
headphones.
AVRCP - Audio/Video Remote Control Profile provides a
standard interface to control media equipment (such as TV and
HiFi) and allows a single remote control (or other device) to
control all the A/V equipment. AVRCP defines how to control
characteristics of streaming media including remote control
operations such as pause, stop, and start playback and volume
control.
BIP - Basic Imaging Profile controls how an imaging
device (such as a camera) can be controlled and how images from
that device may be stored.
BPP - Basic Printing Profile allows mobile phones and
PDAs to perform fundamental printing even though they have no
print drivers.
DUN - Dial up Networking provides access to the
Internet, such as connecting a laptop via a cell phone.
FAX - Fax Profile when typically configured is a
personal computer using a mobile phone as a FAX gateway to send
a FAX transmission to an arbitrary recipient.
FTP - File Transfer Profile defines how to transfer
files from one device to another and how folders may be browsed
on a server by a client.
HFP - Hands Free Profile controls how a phone uses a
hands free device, typically a device in a car, where the stereo
speakers are used as the phone's speakers and a microphone is
installed in the car. Different from the Headset Profile, which
is used for earpieces with cell phones.
HSP - Headset Profile controls phone and headset
operations. Different from the Hands Free Profile, which is used
for stereo speakers in a car.
IrMCSync - Infrared Mobile Computing for syncing
between devices, for example data from a PDA to a laptop via the
infrared interface.
L2CAP - Logical Link Control and Adaptation Layer
Protocol provides connection-oriented and connectionless data
services to upper layer protocols within the Bluetooth protocol
stack.
BNEP - Bluetooth Network Encapsulation Protocol
provides seamless transmission of network packets over the L2CAP
layer in the Bluetooth protocol stack. BNEP encapsulates
dissimilar network packet formats (TCP, IPv4, IPv6) into a
standard common format.
SDP - Service Discovery Protocol enables Bluetooth
client applications to discover services provided by server
applications as well as the attributes of those services.
RFCOMM - Radio Frequency Communication is a Bluetooth
serial port emulation protocol run over L2CAP. It is used as
basis for the OBEX (Object Exchange) protocol and the various
service profiles built upon OBEX.
OPP - Object Push Profile defines how to pull and push
data such as business cards using Bluetooth. OPP is one of the
service profiles built upon Generic Object Exchange Profile
(GOEP), a general framework for file-oriented service profiles.
GOEP in turn uses OBEX (Object Exchange), a protocol designed
for simple file transfers between mobile devices.
