Abstract

This paper presents Mobile application via Bluetooth wireless technology (MAvBT) that enhance the student portal in universities by connecting students' mobile phone devices to a server application that benefit from the devices Bluetooth technology and the storage abilities. MAvBT enables students to retrieve their information with minimum time and anywhere ranging from 100m up to 1Km and it facilitate the communication with instructors outside the office hours. This system consists of computer application (Server Application) installed on a Bluetooth enabled computer, Mobile application (client application) installed on studentsâ?? mobile phone devices, and a website that enable the instructors to edit their materials or enable the demonstrator to get some important reports. Experimental results show that the proposed system is faster, effortless, and cheaper.

Highlights

Bluetooth is a wireless communication protocol used to communicate two or more other Bluetooth-capable devices
The client application is designed to be stored on the student's mobile phones, which enable them to access the required information via Mobile application via Bluetooth wireless technology (MAvBT)
The student uses the mobile application to send a message via the Bluetooth to the server that utilizes the MAvBT application to trigger the appropriate function

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Bluetooth is a wireless communication protocol used to communicate two or more other Bluetooth-capable devices. It is similar to any other communication protocol such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP, or IMAP in a way that it has a client-server architecture where the one who initiates the connection is the master and the other who receives the connection is the slave. There are two communication protocols available in the mobile device or PDA depending on the cost of establishing the connection. The first one is a non free connection protocol that needs to pay for every loaded and uploaded byte between the client and the server. The other one is a free connection protocol that establishes the connection between server and client without any need to be connected to a large provider like the mobile communication companies.
