A Self-organizing Location and Mobility-Aware Route Optimization Protocol for Bluetooth Wireless

Abstract

Bluetooth allows multi-hop ad-hoc networks that contain multiple interconnected piconets in a common area to form a scatternet. Routing is one of the technical issues in a scatternet because nodes can arrive and leave at arbitrary times; hence node mobility has a serious impact on network performance. Bluetooth network is built in an ad-hoc fashion, therefore, a fully connected network does not guarantee. Moreover, a partially connected network may not find the shortest route between source and destination. In this paper, a new Self-organizing Location and Mobility-aware Route Optimization (LMRO) protocol is proposed for Bluetooth scatternet, which is based on node mobility and location. The proposed protocol considered the shortest route ahead of the source and destination nodes through nodes location information. In addition, proposed protocol guarantees network connectivity through executing Self-organizing procedure for the damaged route by considering signal strength. The proposed LMRO protocol predicts node mobility through the signal strength and activates an alternate link before the main link breaks. Simulation results show that the LMRO protocol has reduced the average hop count by 20%-50% and increased network throughput by 30%-40% compared to existing protocols.
