4 Personal Area Networking
4.1 Introduction
The Bluetooth Personal Area Networking (PAN) is a Bluetooth application, which
enables devices to form an ad-hoc network or to access a remote network through
a network access point.
The PAN application can be used in the following scenarios:
♦ Two or more computers (or PDAs) can be connected to form a Group Ad-hoc
Network (GN) and can visit each other using Windows Network Places or any
application based on TCP/IP. (Figure 4.1)
Figure 4.1: Group Ad-hoc Network
♦ Two or more computers (or PDAs) can access a Local Area Network through a
Network Access Point (NAP) bridge. (Figure 4.2) After the computers or PDAs
connect to the PAN-NAP, they become members of the LAN and can
communicate with other computers in the LAN directly.

♦ Two or more computers (or PDAs) can access a Local Area Network through
BlueSoleil™. （Figure 4.3） After the PANUs connect to the BlueSoleil NAP, they
become members of the LAN and can communicate with other computers in the
LAN directly.
