On the impact of fading and inter-piconet interference on Bluetooth performance
Andréa Zanella, Andrea M. Tonello, Silvano Pupolin · 2003
In this paper we propose a simple method to evaluate the impact of fading and inter-piconet interference on Bluetooth performance. We consider in detail the joint effect, on packet error statistics, of interference produced by adjacent Bluetooth piconets and fading. Hence, we illustrate the proposed method by investigating the potential performance tradeoff among the different radio packet formats supplied by Bluetooth, as a function of the radio channel conditions and interference levels.
