| Description | Proceedings of 3G-Wireless Conference 2003 (3GWireless'03 Bluetooth is an open specification for short-range wireless communication. It has gradually been extended to meet the demand for personal ad-hoc networking. A Bluetooth ad-hoc network consists of Bluetooth devices interconnected into piconets and piconets interconnected into scatternets. A number of scatternet formation algorithms have been proposed, but none has yet taken into account that Bluetooth devices may have very different capabilities. We have explored how three proposed scatternet formation algorithms perform when a share of the scatternet devices have low-capabilities and cannot forward packets. Simulations illustrated how the efficiency of the scatternet topology is deteriorated as the share of low-capability devices increases. We have also evaluated each algorithm with respect to its capability to accommodate low-capability devices in the scatternet. 1. |
