Over the last decade, impelled by the industry demand to achieve a technology capable of
sending low amount of data payloads, but at the same time with a very low latency and ultra-
low power consumption, several efforts in wireless network transmission standardization
emerged, supporting new applications in health, sports and fitness, medical, sensor

Over the last decade, impelled by the industry demand to achieve a technology capable of sending low amount of data payloads, but at the same time with a very low latency and ultra-low power consumption, several efforts in wireless network transmission standardization emerged, supporting new applications in health, sports and fitness, medical, sensor networking, and even the automotive industry field. Despite the competition from ANT+, ZigBee, Nike+, NFC and RF4CE, in 2010 the Bluetooth SIG (special interest groups) adopted a new wireless technology named Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). BLE coexist with Bluetooth in the same chip (called dual mode) therefore assuring this technology a rapid growth among smartphones, iOS, tablets, laptops and PCs. In fact, Bluetooth SIG also announced that it shall be hard to find a smartphone or tablet-PC that does not integrate BLE in the near future. Despite this accelerated growth, BLE shares the same band with Wi-Fi and all other low power technologies, so in order to achieve QoS, a mandatory requirement in many systems, tests for interference and coexistence must be performed. This study analysis the impact of a BLE sensor network on a crowded 2.4GHz room, with multiple Wi-Fi routers, ZigBee sensors and Bluetooth technology. We also compare the results with the ones obtained inside an anechoic chamber on similar experiences.
