Embedded Bluetooth Stack Implementation

The aim of this thesis was to use softcore processors to implement the Bluetooth wireless network protocol as an embedded system. As part of this thesis, an evaluation of the performance and effectiveness of using softcore processors, in different configurations,was conducted. Softcore processors combine the advantages of programmable logic devices with those of microprocessors. The primary distinction between normal microprocessors and soft-core processors is that soft-core processors have a re-configurable architecture. An example is that softcore processors can be configured as an embedded system processor or as a state machine controller. The Nios softcore processor from Altera Corporation was chosen because of its re-configurable features and design environment.
