Performance Characterization of a Bluetooth Piconet with Multi–Slot Packets

In this paper we present a framework for per- formance evaluation of a Bluetooth piconet using multislot packets. In particular, under some classical assumptions, we develop a model of a Bluetooth network and derive the complete statistics of the one-hop delay, and other significant metrics such as the channel utilization parameter. Stability conditions are investigated and it is shown that the use of multi-slot packets enlarges the achievable rate region. Simulations results are then shown, which validate the proposed analysis.
