The integration of Bluetooth technology in various devices has helped out a great deal to link the devices as well as enhance and improve the aesthetic appearance of certain devices such as headphones and earpieces.
The seamless integration of the technology in the various everyday devices has made the popularity of the technology surge. New devices are emerging having the technology integrated into the system. On the other hand, existing devices and systems are adding Bluetooth connectivity in an effort to link with even more devices. The end result is that nearly all devices are utilising the technology, including mobile phones, cars, fridges, computers and printers just to mention a few. In computers, the technology is utilised to connect computers with other computers, mice, keyboards, printer and other auxiliary devices.
However, just as with every other radio waves dependant connection, Bluetooth signals tends to have unreliable or weak connections. This affects the rate of data exchange between the connected devices. This is a fairly common phenomenon and many of us have experienced it at one time or the other. You should, however, not fret over a weak Bluetooth connection. Instead, you should task yourself with improving the signal strength and quality.
Way of Improving Bluetooth Signal
Several factors affect the signal quality and strength of Bluetooth devices. Among them:
Placing the two connecting devices close to each other could improve tremendously the signal quality and strength. Being a radio wave, Bluetooth is affected by electromagnetic interferences within the environment. The closer the devices are to each other, the less interference experienced, thus improving the signal strength.
Another way of improving signal strength and quality is getting rid of sources of electromagnetic interference (electromagnetic shield and electromagnetic noise). Common sources of such interference include iron pipes found in walls, electrical wiring, metal screens on door or windows and any other metal coated objects within the vicinity of the device. Removing such items can improve your signal quality tremendously. You could also opt to get away from environments with such interferences if getting rid of the material proves to be difficult.
Another way to improve your computer Bluetooth signal is by identifying the antenna position on the laptop and placing the laptop in the direction of the connected device. Essentially, what this aims at is getting a clear line of communication between the two devices, thus improving the signal.
Finally, if all the above techniques do not improve the Bluetooth signal strength, you can opt to use a Bluetooth USB Extension device to improve the overall Bluetooth signal.
