Wireless Connectivity Technology Column Introduction
Wifi
Wi-Fi is a type of radio/wireless communication technology, also known as WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network).
Wi-Fi is a technology that uses radio waves (electromagnetic waves) to send and receive data between devices, allowing you to Access the internet without a wired connection.
Wi-Fi is used on a variety of devices, including computers, smartphones, TABLETS, and smart home devices, and is an essential part of everyday life and business.
This column will explain about Wi-Fi.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communication technology that allows devices to connect to each other without using CABLES.
It was developed by Ericsson in 1994, and has since been standardized by an organization called the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG).
Nowadays, it is widely used in a variety of devices, including smartphones, TABLETS, computers, headphones, LOUDSPEAKERS, and smartwatches.
The column explains everything from the basics of Bluetooth to the latest standards.
GNSS
GNSS is an abbreviation for "Global Navigation Satellite System" and is a general term for positioning satellite systems operating worldwide.
Generally, the USA's GPS is well known, but other countries also operate various satellites.
The columns provide an overview of GNSS, an overview of GNSS satellites in each country, and explanations of terminology.
