High level design methodologies are needed to overcome the complexity of System on Chip design. In this paper the SystemC environment has been used to design a Bluetooth transceiver. The high simulation speed allowed a high level performance analysis of the IP developed and the definition of an algorithm for selecting the best packet type in presence of channel noise.
