Abstract
Bluetooth 5, the latest version of the Bluetooth standard, brings various improvements compared to the legacy Bluetooth standards. This project aims to introduce Bluetooth 5 technologies and its key characteristics to achieve connectivity in Smart Building services. Performances such as data transmission and power consumption are examined and analyzed for in-building networks via experiments. Based on the evaluation and comparison, we propose a new adaptive physical mode selection scheme for utilizing the legacy Bluetooth and the new Bluetooth 5 efficiently. This scheme dynamically switches the physical layer configuration along with the change of radio environments. Therefore, the network connectivity performances in terms of throughput and outage rate are improved by operating Bluetooth Low Energy and Bluetooth 5 coordinately.
