Abstract

In this paper, a module has been presented which can perform a seamless interoperation between Bluetooth and Wi-Fi interfaces. The work is really challenging to achieve as both the interfaces work in the frequency band of 2.4 GHz creating a high possibility of interference. The challenge of implementing such an interoperable application atop OSGi framework has been discussed in this paper as well as the potential gain of such application has been highlighted. The proto-type implementation reported in this paper is an effort to validate the efficacy of the application as well as to incorporate the application in an OSGi based smart gateway in near future.
