A Pseudo Random Coordinated Scheduling Algorithm for Bluetooth Scatternets
Overview Short range radio technologies enable users to rapidly interconnect handheld electronic devices such as cellular phones, palm devices or notebook computers. The emergence of Bluetooth as default radio interface in these devices provides an opportunity to turn them from stand-alone tools into networked equipment. Building Bluetooth ad hoc networks also represents, however, a number of new challenges, partly stemming from the fact that Bluetooth was originally developed for single hop wireless connections. This paper explains the scheduling problems of inter-piconet communication and proposes a lightweight scheduling algorithm that Bluetooth nodes can employ to perform the scheduling of both intra and inter-piconet communication.
