The Bluetooth® Mesh Software Product Brief describes the overall Bluetooth Mesh software content provided by Texas Instruments (TI). This document provides a high-level overview of the features and capabilities of our Bluetooth Mesh stack without specific details. The Bluetooth Mesh stack is provided inside TI’s Bluetooth 5 Stack’s Software Development Kit (SDK). For further information on APIs and implementation details, see the “BLE5-Stack User’s Guide” [9] inside the SIMPLELINK-CC13XX-CC26XX-SDK.

Bluetooth Mesh [2] is standardized by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) [1] in the Bluetooth Mesh Specification [3] and defines fundamental requirements to enable an interoperable mesh networking solution for Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) wireless technology. Built upon existing Bluetooth LE technology, Bluetooth mesh extends the range of wireless connectivity, supports large device networks, and offers mandatory security to offer a proven and scalable software solution.
TI’s Bluetooth Mesh solution [14] is based on the open source Zephyr® Project’s Bluetooth Mesh library. A translation layer is provided that bridges TI’s Bluetooth 5 stack [9] with the Zephyr Project solution [4], allowing for additional proprietary feature support through TI’s Bluetooth 5 stack implementation.
TI’s Bluetooth Mesh solution is designed to support most Bluetooth Mesh specified profiles [3], including both foundation models as well as custom vendor commands.
