A Very Poor Man Lived With His Wife

Once upon a time ………

A very poor man lived with his wife.

One day, 

His wife, who had very long hair asked him to buy 

Her a comb for her hair to grow well and to be well-groomed. 

The man felt very sorry and said no

He explained that he did not even have enough money

to fix the strap of his watch he had just broken. 

She did not insist on her request. 

The man went to work and passed by a watch shop,sold his damaged watch at a low price and went to buy a comb for his wife.

 

He came home in the evening with the comb in his hand ready to give to his wife. He was surprised when he saw his wife with a very short hair cut.

 

She had sold her hair and was holding a new watch band. Tears flowed simultaneously from their eyes, not for the futility of their actions, but for the reciprocity of their love.

 

To love …it may be nothing!!!, to be loved is something but to love and to be loved by the one you love, that is EVERYTHING. Never take love for granted.

सफलता के लिए ज़रूरी है Focus !

ऐसा  क्यों  होता  है  कि  कई बार  सब  कुछ  होते  हुए  भी  हम  वो  नहीं  कर  पाते  जिसको  करने  के  बारे  में   हमने  सोचा  होता  है ….दृढ  निश्चय  किया  होता ……खुद  को  promise किया  होता  है  कि  हमें  ये  काम  करना  ही  करना  है …चाहे  जो  हो  जाए ….!!!

“सब  कुछ  होते  हुए” से  मेरा  मतलब  है  आपके  पास  पर्याप्त  talent, पैसा ,  समय , या  ऐसी  कोई  भी  चीज  जो  उस  काम  को  करने  के  लिए  ज़रूरी  है ;  होने  से  है .

यह  एक  शाश्वत  सत्य  है  कि  सम्पूर्ण  ब्रह्माण्ड में  हम  जिस  चीज  पर  ध्यान  केन्द्रित  करते  हैं  उस  चीज  में  आश्चर्यजनक  रूप  से  विस्तार  होता  है . इसलिए  सफल  होने  के  लिए  हमें  अपने  चुने  हुए  लक्ष्य   पर  पूरी  तरह  से  focussed होना  होगा ; और  तभी  हम  उसे  हकीकत  बनते  देख  पायेंगे .

Focus करने  का  क्या अर्थ  है ?

एक  idea लो  . उस  idea को  अपनी  life बना  लो – उसके  बारे  में  सोचो  उसके  सपने  देखो , उस  idea को  जियो  . अपने  दिमाग , muscles, nerves, शरीर  के  हर  हिस्से  को  उस  आईडिया  में  डूब  जाने  दो , और  बाकी  सभी  ideas को  किनारे  रख  दो . यही सफल  होने  का  तरीका  है , यही  वो  तरीका  है  जिससे  महान  लोग  निर्मित  होते  हैं .

Friends, उपरोक्त  कथन Swami  Vivekananda के  हैं  और  मुझे  लगता  है  कि  Focus शब्द को  शायद  ही  इससे  अच्छे  ढंग  से  समझा  जा  सकता  है .

इस कथन में जहाँ स्वामी जी ने  किसी एक आईडिया को अपनाना आवश्यक बताया  है वहीँ दूसरी तरफ इस दौरान अन्य ideas को किनारे रखने के लिए भी कहा है. और सही मायने में यही है Focussed होना.

Focus करता  क्या  है  ?

आपने  बचपन  में  lens ज़रूर use किया  होगा ….lens देखने  में  तो  एक  साधारण  कांच  का  टुकड़ा  लगता  है …पर  जब  हम  उसे  कागज़  के  किसी  एक  हिस्से  पर  focus करते   हैं  तो  थोड़ी  देर  में  वो  कागज़  जलने  लगता  है …..

Focus  चीजों  को  संभव  बनाता  है ….जब  आप  भी  अपने  goal पर  focused रहते  हैं  तो  मार्ग  में  आने  वाली  बाधाएं   जल  कर  ख़ाक  हो  जाती  हैं , आपका  रास्ता  साफ़  हो  जाता   है , और  आप  अपना  goal achieve कर  पाते  हैं . Focus आपको  सिर्फ  यह  नहीं  बताता  कि  करना  क्या  है  , यह  भी  बताता  है  कि  क्या  नहीं  करना  है .Focus आपको  आपके  goal से  बांधता  ही  नहीं  , आपको   बेकार  की  चीजों  में  बंधने  से  बचाता  भी  है .

मैं  हमेशा  से  सोचता  था  की  मुझे  कुछ  बड़ा  achieve करना  है . मेरे  लिए   बड़े  का  अर्थ  कभी  lucrative jobs और   अधिक  पैसे  कमाना  नहीं  रहा  है, हालांकि मैं भी financially abundant होना चाहता हूँ  … पर मेरे  लिए जो काम बड़ा है वो है  अधिक  से  अधिक  लोगों  का  जीवन  बेहतर  बनाना .

क्या  Focused रहना  आसान  है ?

Including better job opportunities, foreign travel breaks, other promising income generating ideas, etc. Friends, अगर  आपको  कुछ  World Class करना  है  तो  आपको  पूरी  तरह  से  उस  काम  में डूबना  होगा  और  तब  तक  लगे  रहना  होगा  जब  तक  की  आप  अपने  efforts को  physical reality में  तब्दील  होते  हुए ना देख लें .बीच  में  बहुत  सारे  distractions आयेंगे ; पर  उस  वक़्त   आपको  अपना  focus नहीं  loose करना  है ….और  ऐसा  तभी  संभव  होगा  जब  आप  अपने  काम  या  idea में  पूरी  तरह  से  believe करते  हैं .  इस  मुश्किल  समय  में  जब  mind में  self doubt आने  लगता  है  तब  आपका  belief system ही  आपको  distract होने  से  बचा  सकता  है . इसलिए  काम  शुरू  करने  से  पहले  ही  आप  उस  पर  अच्छी  तरह  से  सोच  विचार  कर  लीजिये , in fact आप  अपने  friends को  आपको  उस  idea या  plan को  लेकर  challenge करने  के  लिए  भी  कह  सकते  हैं . और   अगर  कोई  भी  तर्क -वितर्क  आपकी  आईडिया  को  लेकर  आपके   अन्दर  doubt डालता  है  तो  आप  उस  पर  पुनः  विचार  कर  सकते  हैं . कुछ  शुरू  करने  से  पहले   आपका  अपने  काम  के  successful होने  पर   believe करना  बहुत  ज़रूरी  है  आगे  यही आपके  FOCUS को  उस  पर  बनाये  रखने  में  मदद  करेगा .

तो  क्या  focus करने  का  ये  मतलब  है  कि  हम  और  कोई  काम  करे  ही  नहीं ? 

नहीं , आप  और  काम  करते  हुए  भी  अपना  focus किसी  एक  चीज  पर  बनाये  रख  सकते  हैं . For example: Mahendra Singh Dhoni  Railways में  TTE की  job करते  थे  पर  फिर  भी  उनका  focus cricket था . आप  रोज  TV पर  कितने  ही  singers और  dancers को  देखते  हैं , वो  भी  और  लोगों  की  तरह  पढने  जाते  हैं  या  job करते  हैं  पर  उनका  focus तो  singing या  dancing होता  है .  

देखिये , जब  तक  आपके  मन  का  काम  आपको  financially support नहीं  करने  लगता  तब  तक  कुछ  ना  कुछ  तो  करते  रहना  होगा ….पर  ध्यान  देने  की  बात  ये  है  कि  आपको  और  चीजों  को  सिर्फ  करना  है …पर  आपने  अपने  लिए  जो  Goal decide किया  है  उसे  achieve करने  के  लिए  आपको  उसमे  डूबना  है , और  यही  आपकी  success और  failure के  बीच  का  सबसे  बड़ा  differentiator होगा.

इतना  याद  रखिये  कि  अपने  जीवन  में  एक  normal focussed व्यक्ति  एक  talented  unfocussed  व्यक्ति  से  कहीं  ज्यादा  achieve कर  सकता   है .  और  सच  पूछिए  तो  अगर  हमने  इस  अनमोल  जीवन  को  छोटी – मोटी  चीजें  करने  में  ही  बिता  दिया  तो  हमारे  life की  कोई  value नहीं  रहेगी …..हमारी  अपनी  नज़रों  में  भी ….इसलिए  बड़े लक्ष्य बनाइये  और  उस  पर  focussed होकर  उसे  achieve करिए ….तभी  जीने  का  असली  मजा  है .

प्रेरणा का स्रोत

 दोस्तों ,जिंदगी है तो संघर्ष हैं,तनाव है,काम का pressure है, ख़ुशी है,डर है !लेकिन अच्छी बात यह है कि ये सभी स्थायी नहीं हैं!समय रूपी नदी के प्रवाह में से सब प्रवाहमान हैं!कोई भी परिस्थिति चाहे ख़ुशी की हो या ग़म की, कभी स्थाई नहीं होती ,समय के अविरल प्रवाह में विलीन हो जाती है!

ऐसा अधिकतर होता है की जीवन की यात्रा के दौरान हम अपने आप को कई बार दुःख ,तनाव,चिंता,डर,हताशा,निराशा,भय,रोग इत्यादि के मकडजाल में फंसा हुआ पाते हैं  हम तत्कालिक परिस्थितियों के इतने वशीभूत हो जाते हैं  कि दूर-दूर तक देखने पर भी हमें कोई प्रकाश की किरण मात्र भी दिखाई नहीं देती , दूर से चींटी की तरह महसूस होने वाली परेशानी हमारे नजदीक आते-आते हाथी के जैसा रूप धारण कर लेती है  और हम उसकी विशालता और भयावहता के आगे समर्पण कर परिस्थितियों को अपने ऊपर हावी हो जाने देते हैं,वो परिस्थिति हमारे पूरे वजूद को हिला डालती है ,हमें हताशा,निराशा के भंवर में उलझा जाती है…एक-एक क्षण पहाड़ सा प्रतीत होता है और हममे से ज्यादातर लोग आशा की कोई  किरण ना देख पाने के कारण  हताश होकर परिस्थिति के आगे हथियार डाल देते हैं!

अगर आप किसी अनजान,निर्जन रेगिस्तान मे फँस जाएँ तो उससे निकलने का एक ही उपाए है ,बस -चलते रहें!   अगर आप नदी के बीच जाकर हाथ पैर नहीं चलाएँगे तो निश्चित ही डूब जाएंगे !  जीवन मे कभी ऐसा क्षण भी आता है, जब लगता है की बस अब कुछ भी बाकी नहीं है ,ऐसी परिस्थिति मे अपने  आत्मविश्वास और साहस के साथ सिर्फ डटे रहें क्योंकि-

“हर चीज का हल होता है,आज नहीं तो कल होता है|”

एक बार एक राजा की सेवा से प्रसन्न होकर एक साधू नें उसे एक ताबीज दिया और कहा की राजन  इसे अपने गले मे डाल लो और जिंदगी में कभी ऐसी परिस्थिति आये की जब तुम्हे लगे की बस अब तो सब ख़तम होने वाला है ,परेशानी के भंवर मे अपने को फंसा पाओ ,कोई प्रकाश की किरण नजर ना आ रही हो ,हर तरफ निराशा और हताशा हो तब तुम इस ताबीज को खोल कर इसमें रखे कागज़ को पढ़ना ,उससे पहले नहीं!

राजा ने वह ताबीज अपने गले मे पहन लिया !एक बार राजा अपने सैनिकों के साथ शिकार करने घने जंगल मे गया!  एक शेर का पीछा करते करते राजा अपने सैनिकों से अलग हो गया और दुश्मन राजा की सीमा मे प्रवेश कर गया,घना जंगल और सांझ का समय ,  तभी कुछ दुश्मन सैनिकों के घोड़ों की टापों की आवाज राजा को आई और उसने भी अपने घोड़े को एड लगाई,  राजा आगे आगे दुश्मन सैनिक पीछे पीछे!   बहुत दूर तक भागने पर भी राजा उन सैनिकों से पीछा नहीं छुडा पाया !  भूख  प्यास से बेहाल राजा को तभी घने पेड़ों के बीच मे एक गुफा सी दिखी ,उसने तुरंत स्वयं और घोड़े को उस गुफा की आड़ मे छुपा लिया !  और सांस रोक कर बैठ गया , दुश्मन के घोड़ों के पैरों की आवाज धीरे धीरे पास आने लगी !  दुश्मनों से घिरे हुए अकेले राजा को अपना अंत नजर आने लगा ,उसे लगा की बस कुछ ही क्षणों में दुश्मन उसे पकड़ कर मौत के घाट उतार देंगे !  वो जिंदगी से निराश हो ही गया था , की उसका हाथ अपने ताबीज पर गया और उसे साधू की बात याद आ गई !उसने तुरंत ताबीज को खोल कर कागज को बाहर निकाला और पढ़ा !   उस पर्ची पर लिखा था —”यह भी कट जाएगा “

राजा को अचानक  ही जैसे घोर अन्धकार मे एक  ज्योति की किरण दिखी , डूबते को जैसे कोई सहारा मिला !  उसे अचानक अपनी आत्मा मे एक अकथनीय शान्ति का अनुभव हुआ !  उसे लगा की सचमुच यह भयावह समय भी कट ही जाएगा ,फिर मे क्यों चिंतित होऊं !  अपने प्रभु और अपने पर विश्वासरख उसने स्वयं से कहा की हाँ ,यह भी कट जाएगा !

और हुआ भी यही ,दुश्मन के घोड़ों के पैरों की आवाज पास आते आते दूर जाने लगी ,कुछ समय बाद वहां शांति छा गई !  राजा रात मे गुफा से निकला और किसी तरह अपने राज्य मे वापस आ गया !

दोस्तों,यह सिर्फ किसी राजा की कहानी नहीं है यह हम सब की कहानी है !हम सभी परिस्थिति,काम ,तनाव के दवाव में इतने जकड जाते हैं की हमे कुछ सूझता नहीं है ,हमारा डर हम पर हावी होने लगता है ,कोई रास्ता ,समाधान दूर दूर तक नजर नहीं आता ,लगने लगता है की बस, अब सब ख़तम ,है ना?

जब ऐसा हो तो २ मिनट शांति से बेठिये ,थोड़ी गहरी गहरी साँसे लीजिये !  अपने आराध्य को याद कीजिये और स्वयं से जोर से कहिये –यह भी कट जाएगा !   आप देखिएगा एकदम से जादू सा महसूस होगा , और आप उस परिस्थिति से उबरने की शक्ति अपने अन्दर महसूस करेंगे !  आजमाया हुआ है ! बहुत कारगर है !

आशा है जैसे यह सूत्र मेरे जीवन मे मुझे प्रेरणा देता है ,आपके जीवन मे भी प्रेरणादायक सिद्ध होगा !

Wi-Fi Questions and Answers:

1 :: What is Wi-Fi Technology?

A way to get Internet access, the term Wi Fi is a play upon the decades-old term HiFi that describes the type of output generated by quality musical hardware, Wi Fi stands for Wireless Fidelity and is used to define any of the wireless technology in the IEEE 802.11 specification – including (but not necessarily limited to) the wireless protocols 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g. The Wi-Fi Alliance is the body responsible for promoting the term and its association with various wireless technology standards.

2 :: What does Free Wi-Fi really mean?

As the availability of Free Wi-Fi locations continues to spread I thought it might be good to review what Free might mean in different types of locations. The locations listed in the Wi-Fi Directory all offer some type of Free Wi-Fi access to the public, but sometimes there may be access requirements/restrictions that are unique to a particular type of location, and therefore the access, although free, may not be available to everyone/anyone. While accessing the Free Wi-Fi in certain locations you will be spending money to pay for a Hotel room or space in a RV Resort or for coffee in a cafe, etc. so the following information should help to clarify what Free Wi-Fi really means in different locations.

3 :: What can I do at a Wi-Fi?

The Wi-Fi wireless broadband connection allows you to do anything you'd do from home or the office. You can surf the Web, check your e-mail, connect to your Corporate network (be sure to use a secure VPN connection), make free Voice over IP phone calls, play online games, update your blog, and IM with your friends. If you just have a modem dial-up account at home you'll probably end up spending more time at the Wi-Fi once you see how much faster it is.

4 :: Is my data and e-mail secure at a Wi-Fi?

You should never conduct unsecured transactions that include any account or password information over public hotspots using FTP, email, or the Web. Try to use SSL for email (POP and SMTP), or read your email with a Web browser using an SSL connection. Ask your ISP if they offer SSL secure web-based email.

5 :: What is a Wi Fi Hotspot?

A Wi Fi hotspot is defined as any location in which 802.11 (wireless) technology both exists and is available for use to consumers. In some cases the wireless access is free, and in others, wireless carriers charge for Wi Fi usage. Generally, the most common usage of Wi Fi technology is for laptop users to gain Internet access in locations such as airports, coffee shops, and so on, where Wi Fi technology can be used to help consumers in their pursuit of work-based or recreational Internet usage.

6 :: How Can I Use Wi Fi?

You must be using a computer or PDA that has Wi Fi connectivity already working. Most portable computers can add Wi Fi using an adapter that plugs into a PC card slot or USB port.

7 :: Will I need to have an account with a Wi-Fi service provider?

Generally, no. You should be able to sign up with the provider at the location. Many providers will display instructions when browser software opens on a WiFi-enabled computer. If you don't have an account, simply start your computer and make sure your Wi Fi card is plugged on. Then, open a browser.

8 :: Is Wi Fi the same as Bluetooth?

No. While both are wireless technology terms, Bluetooth technology lives under the IEEE protocol 802.15.1, while Wi Fi falls under the 802.11 specification. What this means for consumers is that appliances using Wi Fi technology and those using Bluetooth technology are not interoperable. Bluetooth and Wi Fi are different in several ways, and are not necessarily in competition. Wi Fi technology boasts faster data transfer speeds and range, making it a good replacement for Ethernet (802.3) systems, while Bluetooth requires less power and is therefore more prominent in small appliances, such as PDAs.

Satellite Interview Questions and Answers.

1 :: What are the Types of Satellite?

Types of Satellite are as under:
► Anti-Satellite weapons/”Killer Satellites”
► Astronomical satellites
► Biosatellites
► Communications satellites
► Miniaturized satellites
► Navigational satellites
► Reconnaissance satellites
► Earth observation satellites
► Space stations
► Tether satellites
► Weather satellites 

2 :: How do I interpret visible satellite pictures?

The pictures sent back to us from Weather Satellites are simply photographs taken from outer space. We get visible images during the daylight when the earth reflects sunlight back to outer space. Visible pictures show the amount of light reflected back to outer space. Thick water rich clouds, such as stratus (common along the North Coast during Summer months), show up as bright white on visible pictures. Snow pack over the Sierra Nevada during the Winter is another good reflector of sunlight. During the night, visible pictures are completely black as there is very little or no visible light to reflect!

3 :: How do I interpret infrared satellite pictures?

Clouds and atmospheric gases such as water vapor radiate infrared energy to space. The amount of energy radiated by clouds and gasses relates directly with its temperature. This relationship, know as the Stephan-Boltzmann Law, allows us to “see” clouds at night. The atmosphere generally cools with height. A cloud that radiates low energy is higher in the troposphere than a cloud that radiates higher energy. On a standard linear enhancement curve, bright white represent cold ice-crystal clouds, while clouds colored with light shades of gray are warm water filled clouds in the mid and lower troposphere. There are a number of enhancement curves that color pictures of clouds based on temperature. These curves accentuate temperature ranges that allow us to discern high clouds from mid and low clouds. At the bottom of every infrared image there is a key telling you the temperature range for that color. For example, on the infrared pictures provided on this web site, red represents cloud tops with a temperature of -40C which in a standard atmosphere is about 40,000 ft.

4 :: How do I interpret water vapor imagery?

Water vapor in the mid and upper troposphere absorbs infrared energy at discrete wavelengths. Using this information, water vapor can act like a tracer of atmospheric circulation in the mid and upper troposphere. Dark regions on water vapor pictures are generally areas where the air is sinking and drying. Light colored regions are areas of rising motion and moisture. Water vapor images are useful in locating jet streams and short-wave troughs and ridges in the mid and upper troposphere, but are lousy when trying to see clouds near the ground such as stratus.

5 :: Where can I find the time on satellite pictures? What time zone is this?

The date and time stamps are located at the top or bottom of every image, along with other information. For example, G-10 IMG 01 3 Jun 00 TIME=00:30UTC RES=4km NWS/WR=SSD, is a typical date-time stamp which appears on satellite images. The date and time, colored blue in the above example, is in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). UTC is also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) or Zulu Time (Z). Along the West Coast, we are about 8 hours behind the UTC during Pacific Standard Time (PST). During Daylight Saving Time (PDT), from mid April through mid October, we are about7 hours behind the UTC. In the example above, it’s June 3rd 2000, 30 minutes past midnight in Greenwich England. In order to get local time, you subtract7 hours to get June 2nd 2000, 5:30PM PDT. The next calendar day has already started in Greenwich England!

6 :: What is Anti-satellite weapon?

Anti-satellite weapons (ASAT) are space weapons designed to incapacitate or destroy satellites for strategic military purposes. Currently, only the United States, the former USSR (now Russia) and the People’s Republic of China are known to have developed these weapons. On September 13, 1985, the United States destroyed US satellite P78-1 using an ASM-135 ASAT anti-satellite missile and malfunctioning US spy satellite USA-193 using a RIM-161 Standard Missile 3 on February 21, 2008. On January 11, 2007, China destroyed an old Chinese orbiting weather satellite.

7 :: What is Space observatory?

A space observatory is any instrument in outer space which is used for observation of distant planets, galaxies, and other outer space objects. This category is distinct from other observatories located in space that are pointed toward the earth for the purpose of reconnaissance and other types of information gathering.

8 :: What is Biosatellite?

A biosatellite is a satellite designed to carry life in space.

NASA launched three satellites specifically named Biosatellite (1, 2 & 3) between 1966 and 1969.
Biosatellites include:

► Bion series of satellites
► the Mars Gravity Biosatellite.
► Orbiting Frog Otolith

9 :: What is Communications satellite?

A communications satellite (sometimes abbreviated to COMSAT) is an artificial satellite stationed in space for the purpose of telecommunications. Modern communications satellites use a variety of orbits including geostationary orbits, Molniya orbits, other elliptical orbits and low (polar and non-polar) Earth orbits.

10 :: What is Miniaturized satellite?

Miniaturized satellites or small satellites are artificial satellites of unusually low weights and small sizes, usually under 500 kg (1100 lb). While all such satellites can be referred to as small satellites, different classifications are used to categorize them based on mass.

11 :: What is Global navigation satellite system?

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) is the standard generic term for satellite navigation systems (“sat nav”) that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. GNSS allows small electronic receivers to determine their location (longitude, latitude, and altitude) to within a few metres using time signals transmitted along a line-of-sight by radio from satellites. Receivers calculate the precise time as well as position, which can be used as a reference for scientific experiments.

12 :: What is Spy satellite?

A spy satellite officially referred to as a reconnaissance satellite is an Earth observation satellite or communications satellite deployed for military or intelligence applications.

These are essentially space telescopes that are pointed toward the Earth instead of toward the stars. The first generation type took photographs, then ejected canisters of photographic film, which would descend to earth.

13 :: What is Earth observation satellite?

Earth observation satellites are satellites specifically designed to observe Earth from orbit, similar to reconnaissance satellites but intended for non-military uses such as environmental monitoring, meteorology, map making etc. Geostationary satellites hover over the same spot, providing continuous monitoring to a portion of the Earth’s surface. Polar orbiting satellites provide global coverage, but only twice per day at any given spot.

14 :: What is Space station?

A space station is an artificial structure designed for humans to live and work in outer space for a period of time.

To date, only low earth orbital (LEO) stations have been implemented, otherwise known as orbital stations. A space station is distinguished from other manned spacecraft by its lack of major propulsion or landing facilities—instead, other vehicles are used as transport to and from the station. Current and recent-history space stations are designed for medium-term living in orbit, for periods of weeks, months, or even years. The only space station currently in use is the International Space Station. Previous stations include the Almaz and Salyut series, Skylab and Mir.

15 :: What is Tether satellite?

Tether satellite is a satellite connected to another by a thin cable called a tether. The space tether idea had its origin in the late 1800s. The idea became more popular in the 1960s, and subsequently NASA examined the feasibility of the idea and gave direction to the study of tethered systems, especially tethered satellites.

16 :: Explain Weather satellite?

Weather Satellite is a type of satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth. Satellites can be either polar orbiting, seeing the same swath of the Earth every 12 hours, or geostationary, hovering over the same spot on Earth by orbiting over the equator while moving at the speed of the Earths rotation. These meteorological satellites, however, see more than clouds and cloud systems. City lights, fires, effects of pollution, auroras, sand and dust storms, snow cover, ice mapping, boundaries of ocean currents, energy flows, etc., are other types of environmental information collected using weather satellites.

Bluetooth Technology

1 :: What is Bluetooth SIG?

Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG)

Bluetooth wireless technology is revolutionizing personal connectivity by providing freedom from wired connections. It is a specification for a small-form factor, low-cost radio solution providing links between mobile computers, mobile phones, other portable handheld devices and automobiles, as well as connectivity to the Internet. The Bluetooth SIG, comprised of leaders in the telecommunications, computing, automotive and consumer electronics industries, is driving development of the technology and bringing it to market. The Bluetooth SIG includes Promoter member companies Agere, Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Motorola, Nokia and Toshiba, and thousands of Associate and Adopter member companies. The Bluetooth SIG, Inc. headquarters are located in Overland Park, Kansas, U.S.A.

2 :: How secure a Bluetooth device is?

Bluetooth uses the SAFER+ algorithm for authentication and key generation. The E0 stream cipher is used for encrypting packets. This makes eavesdropping on Bluetooth-enabled devices more difficult.

3 :: What is Pairing?

Pairs of devices may establish a trusted relationship by learning (by user input) a shared secret known as a “passkey”. A device that wants to communicate only with a trusted device can cryptographically authenticate the identity of the other device. Trusted devices may also encrypt the data that they exchange over the air so that no one can listen in. The encryption can however be turned off and passkeys are stored on the device’s file system and not the Bluetooth chip itself. Since the Bluetooth address is permanent a pairing will be preserved even if the Bluetooth name is changed. Pairs can be deleted at any time by either device. Devices will generally require pairing or will prompt the owner before it allows a remote device to use any or most of its services. Some devices such as Sony Ericsson phones will usually accept OBEX business cards and notes without any pairing or prompts. Certain printers and access points will allow any device to use its services by default much like unsecured Wi-Fi networks.

4 :: How many devices can communicate concurrently?

A Bluetooth device playing the role of the “master” can communicate with up to 7 devices playing the role of the “slave”. This network of “group of up to 8 devices” (1 master + 7 slaves) is called a piconet. A piconet is an ad-hoc computer network of devices using Bluetooth technology protocols to allow one master device to interconnect with up to seven active slave devices (because a three-bit MAC address is used). Up to 255 further slave devices can be inactive, or parked, which the master device can bring into active status at any time.

5 :: Name few applications of Bluetooth?

* Wireless control of and communication between a cell phone and a hands free headset or car kit. This is the most popular use.
* Wireless networking between PCs in a confined space and where little bandwidth is required.
* Wireless communications with PC input devices such as mouses and keyboards and output devices such as printers.
* Transfer of files between devices via OBEX.
* Transfer of contact details, calendar appointments, and reminders between devices via OBEX.
* Replacement of traditional wired serial communications in test equipment, GPS receivers and medical equipment.
* For remote controls where infrared was traditionally used.
* Sending small advertisements from Bluetooth enabled advertising hoardings to other, discoverable, Bluetooth devices.
* Wireless control of a games console, Nintendo’s Wii and Sony’s PlayStation 3 will both use Bluetooth technology for their wireless controllers.
* Sending commands and software to the upcoming LEGO Mindstorms NXT instead of infra red.

6 :: Why is Bluetooth 2.0 better?

The main features of Bluetooth Core Specification Version 2.0 + EDR are:
• 3 times faster transmission speed (up to 10 times in certain cases)
• Lower power consumption through reduced duty cycle
• Simplification of multi-link scenarios due to more available bandwidth
• Backwards compatible to earlier versions
• Further improved BER (Bit Error Rate) performance

7 :: Is Bluetooth an IEEE standard, like IEEE 802.11 and Ethernet?

Being an IEEE standard will be a big plus to widespread adoption of Bluetooth, and IEEE 802.15 working group for personal area networks (PAN) announced that they will be adopting Bluetooth as the IEEE 802.15 standard.

8 :: What is it – a technology, a standard, an initiative, or a product?

Bluetooth wireless technology is a de facto standard, as well as a specification for small-form factor, low-cost, short range radio links between mobile PCs, mobile phones and other portable devices. The Bluetooth Special Interest Group is an industry group consisting of leaders in the telecommunications, computing, and networking industries that are driving development of the technology and bringing it to market

9 :: What is the history of Bluetooth?

Bluetooth was initiated by Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Nokia and Toshiba in early 1998. These companies later formed a special interest group known as the Bluetooth SIG. The Bluetooth 1.0 specifications were released on July 26, 1999, but the technology has only recently become inexpensive enough for widespread use.

10 :: How does Bluetooth fit in with WiFi?

The 802.11b (WiFi) standard is commonly used for wireless networking. Bluetooth is not a competitor with 802.11b, but rather a complement to it. While 802.11b is generally a replacement for wired local area networking, Bluetooth is more commonly used as a replacement for cables between individual devices. Bluetooth is designed to link devices within a very short range (up to 33 feet ). Bluetooth is part of the 802.15 standard.

11 :: What are some of the uses of Bluetooth?

Depending on the Bluetooth profiles included on the device, Bluetooth technology has the capability to wirelessly synchronize and transfer data among devices. The Bluetooth audio capabilities can be used for headset and hands free applications. The exact functionality provided by a Bluetooth enabled device depends on the Bluetooth profiles included.

12 :: What are Bluetooth profiles?

A profile is a description of how to use a specification to implement a particular function. The International Standards Organization (ISO) first came up with the idea of profiles. In Bluetooth, there are several profiles available and they are arranged in a hierarchical fashion. For example, in order to use the headset profile, a device must also include the lower level profiles such as the serial port and general access profiles.

13 :: What are Different Classes in Bluetooth?

Bluetooth is a radio standard and communications protocol primarily designed for low power consumption, with a short range (power class dependent: 1 meter, 10 meters, 100 meters) based around low-cost transceiver microchip in each device.

Bluetooth lets these devices communicate with each other when they are in range. The devices use a radio communications system, so they do not have to be in line of sight of each other, and can even be in other rooms, so long as the received power is high enough.

14 :: What are the problems with older versions (1.0 and 1.0 B)?

Versions 1.0 and 1.0 B had numerous problems and the various manufacturers had great difficulties in making their products interoperable. 1.0 and 1.0B also had mandatory Bluetooth Hardware Device Address (BD_ADDR) transmission in the handshaking process, rendering anonymity impossible at a protocol level, which was a major setback for services planned to be used in Bluetooth environments, such as Consumerism.

15 :: Will other RF (Radio Frequency) devices interfere with Bluetooth Devices?

No. Bluetooth radios operate on the unlicensed 2.4 GHz (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) frequency band that is shared among other devices (microwave ovens, cordless phones, garage door openers, etc. ). Bluetooth radios switch frequencies at such a rapid pace (1,600 times per second) and the data packets are so small that interference from other RF sources is highly unlikely. Bluetooth is a robust communication system.

16 :: Will Bluetooth and Wireless LAN (WLAN) interfere with each other?

No, both Bluetooth and WLAN can co-exist. Since Bluetooth devices use Frequency Hopping and most WLANs use Direct Sequence Spreading techniques they each appear as background noise to the other and should not cause any perceivable performance issues.

17 :: What is the data throughput speed of a Bluetooth connection?

Bluetooth transfers data at a rate of 721 Kbps, which is from three to eight times the average speed of parallel and serial ports, respectively. This bandwidth is capable of transmitting voice, data, video and still images

  

18 :: What is the range of Bluetooth transmitter/receivers?

Bluetooth is designed for very low power use, and the transmission range will only be 10m, about 30ft. High-powered Bluetooth devices will enable ranges up to 100m (300ft). Considering the design philosophy behind Bluetooth, even the 10m range is adequate for the purposes Bluetooth is intended for. Later versions of the Bluetooth spec may allow longer ranges.

19 :: What kind of encryption will be used for Bluetooth security?

The Bluetooth specification 1.0 describes the link encryption algorithm as a stream cipher using 4 LFSR (linear feedback shift registers). The sum of the width of the LFSRs is 128, and the spec says “the effective key length is selectable between 8 and 128 bits”. This arrangement allows Bluetooth to be used in countries with regulations limiting encryption strength, and “facilitate a future upgrade path for the security without the need for a costly redesign of the algorithms and encryption hardware” according to the Bluetooth specification. Key generation and authentication seems to be using the 8-round SAFER+ encryption algorithm. The information available suggests that Bluetooth security will be adequate for most purposes; but users with higher security requirements will need to employ stronger algorithms to ensure the security of their data.

20 :: Is Bluetooth practical for use with mobile devices?

Yes. One concern for mobile computing users is power consumption. Bluetooth radios are very low power, drawing as little as 0.3mA in standby mode and 30mA during sustained data transmissions. Bluetooth radios alternate among power-saving modes in which device activity is lowered to maximize the mobile power supply.

21 :: Are different brands of Bluetooth products compatible?

Yes. They have to. The Bluetooth Logo Certification Program requires Bluetooth products to interoperate with products manufactured by other vendors; those products that don’t interoperate will not be allowed to use the Bluetooth logo.

22 :: What companies are involved in the Bluetooth initiative?

Global technology leaders Ericsson, Nokia, IBM, Intel and Toshiba founded the Bluetooth SIG in 1998. These companies are now supported by over 1,000 other organizations with a wide range of expertise, including Widcomm, Inc.

23 :: What types of companies are likely to adopt or promote Bluetooth technology?

Companies likely to adopt this technology include, but are not limited to, software developers, network vendors, silicon vendors, peripheral and camera manufacturers, mobile PC and handheld device manufacturers, consumer electronics manufacturers and more.
