Connection Data Rate Optimization of IEEE 802.15.3 Scatternets With Multi-Rate Carriers

Overview The IEEE 802.15.3 MAC is designed for high data rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs), in which all communications within a piconet work in a peer-to-peer manner. This paper analyzes the link rate distribution of a piconet, and shows that the expected piconet link rate for a UWB based 802.15.3 piconet decreases with the piconet radius. Furthermore, the effective scatternet connection rate is defined to optimize the piconet coverage within a scatternet.
