Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which wireless communication method has an operational range of about 1 meter?
A
Wi-Fi
B
Bluetooth
C
NFC
D
IR
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Infrared has an operational range of about 1 meter. Near field communication (NFC) has a maximum range of about 10 centimeters. Wi-Fi depends on the standard, but it usually has a range of 30 meters or more. Bluetooth Class 2 devices can operate at about 10 meters.

Detailed explanation-2: -In opposition to standard wireless technologies referred to as “short-range”, long-range radio technologies allow devices to communicate over kilometers-wide distances at a low energy cost, but at the expense of a low data rate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Short-range wireless technologies include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, near-field communication (NFC), LPWAN, ultra-wideband (UWB) and IEEE 802.15. 4. They are implemented by chips fabricated as RF CMOS integrated circuit (RF circuit).
