Summary:The authors specify the potential of integrating Bluetooth with a
wireless network so that it can be used as the extension of a wireless
system to provide in-building (wireless office) services, universal and
multi-media, multi-system, multi-channel and multi-session services.
They discuss the use combined use of ricocheting and Bluetoth so that
in-building coverage can be provided through handoffs (HO). This
approach enables the wireless system voice/data to take a free ride on
Bluetooth within the building. Certain handshaking algorithms need to be
developed so that different wireless systems voice/data can ricochet
through Bluetooth seamlessly. They show how to provide universal access
for mobile handset through Bluetooth and all existing cellular services
to the Bluetooth users by managing their profiles, personal portal and
other key features through the integrated Bluetooth/wireless network. HO
and roaming are provided by treating the Bluetooth hub as a pseudo BTS.
This can be done by through the airlink or by simulating mobile
messaging and data transmission through a wireline. There is a need to
enhance the public phone booth to incorporate Bluetooth functionality to
support wireless multiuser and multi-session services. Bluetooth can
also be used for baton 3G handoff, microcell applications and for the
Poor man's 3G system
