Abstract :
Both Bluetooth and 802.11b wireless devices operate in the same frequency range. Increasingly, voice-over-IP (VoIP) traffic is being routed over wireless network segments where packet loss can be an issue. This paper presents the results of a study of the effects of Bluetooth devices on the quality of VoIP calls over 802.11b networks.
