Abstract
This paper presents a modification for Bluetooth frame structure to improve its performance over both Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and fading channels. The paper investigates the effect of using different block codes on the performance of the Bluetooth system. Both Hamming and BCH codes with different lengths are studied as error control codes for the Bluetooth frame. Experimental results reveal that shorter Hamming codes have a better performance in AWGN channels. Also, the BCH (15, 7) code has a better performance for interleaved channels. All this work is devoted to Bluetooth 1.1 version.
