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.
organization
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), empowering 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.
Bluetooth BQB certification process
蓝牙BQB认证周期和样品要求

2）样品数量: 2台成品，2台工程样机（进入BQB测试模式）。
蓝牙BQB认证团体
蓝牙团体
蓝牙认证团体（BQB）是由BQRB授权的，为需要获得蓝牙产品认证的成员提供服务的团体。成员直接通过BQB获得认证服务。BQB负责检查不符合规范的声明和文档，评价产品测试报告，在蓝牙授权产品的官方数据库中列出产品。BQB必须是蓝牙SIG成员或者蓝牙SIG的雇员。BQB是独立的个体，不需要附属于测试机构和生产商。

testing agency
The Bluetooth Certification Test Facility (BQTF) is officially recognized by the BQRB and can complete the "Class A" Bluetooth certification conformance test identification in the Test Instance Reference List (TCRL). The authoritative description of the role of the BQTF is in Section 4.3.3 of the Bluetooth Authentication Procedure Reference Document (PRD). Members can directly use BQTF for testing services. Usually, BQTF can also provide additional Bluetooth testing services.
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.
