Title
A chain structure Bluetooth scatternet topology formation algorithm and simulations.
Abstract
This paper presents a novel chain structure Bluetooth scatternet topology formation algorithm: all Bluetooth nodes enter into INQUIRY or INQUIRY states with identical probability, 0.5, then set up point-to-point connections simultaneously. As a result, as large as possible numbers of temporary piconets are made up, and furthermore, some larger piconets and groups composed of several piconets are made up through varieties of merging and recomposing repeatedly. Finally, a chain structure scatternet bearing only one group are formed by operating the algorithm after several times. Simulations and performance analysis indicate that the scatternet formed by this algorithm has excellent characteristics: comparably less number of piconets, less average number of every node's roles and less number of maximum degree of nodes, shorter networking establishment time, easier to maintain topology dynamically and dispensable for all nodes to be in communication range, etc. © 2005 IEEE.
