 I am looking into possible use of bluetooth in the subsea business, but i need to get som questions answered. I hope some of you can help. 
 
 Can a bluetooth device withstand a exturnal pressure up to 300 bar? 
 Is it possible to send signals</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:32:27 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/1785/challenges-with-bluetooth-in-the-subsea-market" /><item><title>RE: Challenges with bluetooth in the subsea market</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/7812?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:32:27 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:7bf51168-a85a-405d-84cf-33f721708308</guid><dc:creator>cocoa</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Bluetooth LE works in 2.4 GHz frequency.
At this frequency  water adsorbs all RF power, this is why microwave oven operates  with this frequency.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best if you use ELF (as used by submarines to communicate).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See  &lt;a href="http://engineering.utsa.edu/%7Ebkelley/Pdf/RF%20Communications%20between%20Surface%20and%20Underwater%20Robotic%20Swarms.pdf"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt;  if interested in 2.4GHz underwater experiment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;300 bar ???  On chip ?&lt;/p&gt;
