Diversified Adaptive Frequency Rolling to Mitigate Self and Static Interferences

Increase in the number of coexisting networks in Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band cause interferences and demands for intelligent interference avoidance schemes. This paper proposes a novel Diversified Adaptive Frequency Rolling (DAFR) technique for frequency hopping in Bluetooth piconets which has the tendency to mitigate both the self and static interferences and ensures sufficient frequency diversity. Simulation studies validate the prospects for the proposed scheme to be used for frequency hopping networks against already existing techniques, Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) and Adaptive Frequency Rolling (AFR).
