Bluetooth Hacking Introduction

Introduction

Bluetooth is a short range wireless protocol.

The frequency operates on the 2.4 GHz spectrum.

This is the same as Wi-Fi and microwaves! Frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS).

Low power consumption protocol. Consumes low amounts of power through incremental bursts of received data and broadcasted data.

It is widely support on mobile platforms, computers, IoT devices, and more.

Protocols

Classic (Basic Rate)

Low Energy (LE or BLE)

Bluetooth Classic

Higher-power consumption protocol and can max our at 3Mbps and fluctuates around 1Mbps/2Mbps/3Mbps. Faster than BLE.

Pairing your phone with your car = Bluetooth Classic

80 channels.

Other examples: audio streaming (Bluetooth speaker) and data transfer

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Lower-power consumption

125Kbps/500Kbps/1Mbps/2Mbps

40 Channels: 3 advertising/37 data

Examples: Data transfer, location services, device networks, audio streaming (future innovation incoming).
