Abstract
In order to cope with the environmental impacts on Bluetooth data transmission, diversity techniques were examined. A Bluetooth antenna diversity demonstrator was developed. Extensive experimental investigations documenting the significant improvements of data communication employing diversity have been done. It was shown that the effects of multipath and fading could be combated to a large extent by antenna diversity. Thus, antenna diversity was found to be a powerful technique for improving the quality of Bluetooth links.
