| This research work deals with analyzing the performance issues of Bluetooth networks such as Piconet and Scatternet. Bluetooth systems with the basic protocol layers such as Bluetooth radio, Baseband, L2CAP, and LMP were simulated to study the performance issues. The primary focus of this simulation study is to observe the effects of packet transmission delay and the number Bluetooth of packets transmitted. The performance characteristics were obtained with varying number of links in a Bluetooth Piconet/Sctternet setup and with variation in information traffic pattern such as Exponential Traffic and FTP traffic patterns. The performance characteristics were obtained with variation in packet types also. The simulation results of the study, are presented in terms of packet transmission delay, number of packets transmitted, comparative study of packets with and without error codes in graphical representations. |
