Detecting Congestion within a Bluetooth Piconet: Video Streaming Response
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract: In a Bluetooth piconet, congestion may arise as multiple flows pass via the master node across the shared wireless channel. While packet loss and delay are common measures of congestion, within a piconet the transmitter buffer fullness is a more suitable metric, as it more directly indicates congestion and the onset of congestion. For video traffic, simulation results clearly show the advantage of buffer fullness as the congestion indicator compared to other possible metrics, in terms of delivered video quality.

Cross-Layer-Based Adaptive Traffic Control Protocol for Bluetooth Wireless Networks
Bluetooth technology is particularly designed for a wireless personal area network that is low cost and less energy consuming. Efficient transmission between different Bluetooth nodes depends on network formation. An inefficient Bluetooth topology may create a bottleneck and a delay in the network when data is routed. To overcome the congestion problem of Bluetooth networks, a Cross-layer-based...
متن کاملCongestion control of bluetooth radio system by piconet restructuring
Bluetooth is a low-cost and short-range wireless communication technology. Two or more bluetooth devices connected form a piconet and two or more piconets connected form a scatternet through relay devices. Without the consideration of traffic flows, a scatternet may operate with serious congestion problem. Congestion problem can be resolved by either reduced traffic flows or increased bandwidth...

متن کاملPerformance of TCP traffic in Bluetooth piconets: a queueing theoretic analysis
Recent updates of the Bluetooth specification have introduced significant changes in the Bluetooth protocol stack, including optional flow control. When the Bluetooth piconet is used to carry TCP traffic, complex interactions between TCP congestion control mechanisms and data link layer controls of Bluetooth will occur. In this paper, we model the performance of the piconet with TCP traffic, ex...
متن کاملAdaptive Timeout for Video Delivery over a Bluetooth Wireless Network
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless interconnect that in its 2.0 version has sufficient capacity to support encoded video streaming, possibly from an Internet access point. The default setting of the Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) facility leads to poor quality video, as streaming is delay-sensitive. The paper introduces an adaptive algorithm that alters the number of ARQ retransmissions accord...
