Certification Introduction

Bluetooth certification is also BQB certification. In short, if your product has Bluetooth function and the Bluetooth logo is marked on the appearance of the product, it must pass BQB certification. Bluetooth certification is a certification process that any product using Bluetooth wireless technology must go through. The Bluetooth wireless technology defined in the Bluetooth System Specification allows short-range wireless data connections between devices.

The product has Bluetooth function and is marked with the Bluetooth logo (Bluetooth logo) on the appearance of the product, which must be certified by Bluetooth BQB (Bluetooth Qualification Body).

Standard Reference

The Bluetooth Certification Program Reference Document is the standard reference for the product certification process.

Members of the Bluetooth Special Interest Group have the right to use the Bluetooth wireless technology on a product list on the Bluetooth Qualified Product List (QPL) at no charge. Bluetooth SIG membership is free.

The Bluetooth QPL lists all licensed Bluetooth finished products, subsystems, components and development tools. Products listed in the QPL are specifically authorized by Bluetooth Qualification Bodies (BQBs) located around the world. Any BQB can evaluate, certify, and list any product certified. Joining BQB early can minimize the time and expense of product development.

Organize

The Bluetooth Product Certification Policy, documented in the PRD, is developed by the Bluetooth Certification Evaluation Board (BQRB), which is elected by representatives from the sponsoring companies of the nine Bluetooth SIGs. The certification process is the responsibility of the Bluetooth Certification Administrator (BQA) representing the interests of the BQRB.

The BQRB recognizes individual Bluetooth Qualification Bodies (BQBs), authorizing them to certify and list products. The BQRB also recognizes qualified Bluetooth Qualification Test Devices (BQTFs) as effectively performing and reporting Class A test results (see Qualification Process Description for more details). The BQRB also recognizes Bluetooth technology assessors, who assess and recommend BQTF candidates.

4. Bluetooth BQB certification group:

Bluetooth community

The Bluetooth Certification Body (BQB) is a group authorized by the BQRB to provide services to members who need to obtain Bluetooth product certification. Members receive certification services directly through BQB. The BQB is responsible for checking claims and documentation of non-compliance, evaluating product test reports, and listing products in the official database of Bluetooth licensed products. The BQB must be a member of the Bluetooth SIG or an employee of the Bluetooth SIG.

Ability range

1. RF conformance testing, including RF, baseband and physical test specifications.

2. Protocol and profile conformance testing, including baseband, link management, L2CAP and profile conformance testing specifications.

For BQTF conformance testing capabilities, please refer to the Test Instance Status and Capability page. Information on the BQTF accreditation process and standards can be found on the BQTF Applicants page.

Qualification authorization

The task of the Bluetooth Technology Assessor (BTA) is to represent the Bluetooth Qualification Evaluation Board (BQRB) in the technical capabilities of the test organization delegated for Bluetooth conformance testing and later authorized by the Bluetooth SIG as a Bluetooth Qualification Test Facility (BQTF). Evaluate.

The steps and criteria for becoming an authorised BTA are explained on the BTA application page.
