Adaptive scatternet support for Bluetooth using sniff mode
S. Baatz, Matthias Frank, Christiane Katharina Kuhl, Peter Martini, Christoph Scholz · 2002
Future applications of Bluetooth are likely to include ad-hoc networking. Therefore, it is desirable to interconnect multiple Bluetooth piconets to form a scatternet. Up to now, there is no extensive proposal for scatternet support available. We present and analyze an adaptive scheme for scatternet scheduling that is based on the sniff mode and thus does not require substantial modification of the current Bluetooth specification. The suitability of our approach is shown by first simulation results.
