Routing in Bluetooth Personal Area Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is proposed that a new role: Router Node is introduced to the Bluetooth Personal Area Network profile to enable multiple hops between piconets. A proposed structure that allows transparent piconet connection is illustrated. The resulting increase in data throughput is particularly important for scalable PAN communications where multiple hops between piconets are needed. A software system has been built as a “proof-of-concept” of the Router Node construction. A prototype Bluetooth router program has been developed in the C program language. This will enable rapid realisation of a working Router Node in hardware and software.

Blueline: A Distributed bluetooth scatternet formation and routing algorithm
The emerging Bluetooth technology is a best-known PAN (Personal Area Networks) technology. It still has some issues left open in the current specification. Among them, the scatternet formation and routing are two major issues. In this paper, we proposed a new Bluetooth scatternet formation algorithm and its routing algorithm. Our method constructs and maintains a scatternet in a distributed way...
متن کاملA Location Aware Mobility based Routing Protocol for the Bluetooth Scatternet
Bluetooth is a most promising technology designed for the wireless personal area networks for the cable replacement. In this paper, a location aware mobility based routing scheme for the Bluetooth scatternet is proposed that constructs the links dynamically. Our proposed routing protocol requires location information of the nodes and constructs the route between any source and destination and r...

متن کاملForming Scatternets from Bluetooth Personal Area Networks
There is increasing interest in wireless ad hoc networks built from portable devices equipped with short-range wireless network interfaces. This paper addresses issues related to internetworking such networks to form larger “scatternets.” Within the constraints imposed by the emerging standard Bluetooth link layer and MAC protocol, we describe an efficient online topology formation algorithm, c...
متن کاملA Location-Aware Routing Protocol for the Bluetooth Scatternet
Bluetooth is a most promising technology for the wireless personal area networks and its specification describes how to build a piconet. Though the construction of scatternet from the piconets is left out in the specification, some of the existing solutions discuss the scatternet formation issues and routing schemes. Routing in a scatternet, that has more number of hops and relay nodes increase...
