MESSAGING SYSTEM FOR HAND HELD DEVICES USING WI-FI/BLUETOOTH NETWORK

Abstract

In day-to-day life use and performance of mobile phones has increased drastically from previous few years.Most of them take the benefit of extremely capable smartphones for file sharing.Exisiting peer-to-peer system[4][8] suffers from frequent disconnections and requires retranmission of data in case of transmission failure.Smart phones provides us with SMS facility which is not free of cost,so we proposed an application called Seamless File Sharing[1] that provides us with chatting and file uploading facility free of cost without using any internet facility.Here we use two methods of data sharing one through WiFi network[4][5] and other through Bluetooth.First file transmission is done through WiFi and if connection is not possible then file transmission automatically switches to Bluetooth network.So an Adhoc network is created for sharing file contents .Transferring file through internet is costly so adhoc network can be used for file sharing.This application has an a benefit of low battery consumption.
