  1. Data Scheduling and SARfor Bluetooth MAC Manish Kalia, Deepak Bansal, Rajeev Shorey IBM India Research Laboratory Hasan SÖZER

  2. Outline • Medium Access Control in Bluetooth • Problems & Restrictions faced in Bluetooth MAC • Goals, Assumptions & Approaches • Priority Policy (PP) • K-Fairness Policy (KFP) • Scheduling Data in Presence of Voice • Bluetooth SAR Policy & Possible Improvements • Results & Conclusion Hasan Sözer

  3. Medium Access Control in Bluetooth • TDD slot structure with strict alternation of slots between the Master and the Slaves • Single point of coordination (at Master) • Polling based • A slave transmits packets in the reverse slot only after the Master polls the slave in a forward slot • Thus, Bluetooth is a Master driven, polling based TDD standard Hasan Sözer

  4. Problems & Restrictions • Conventional scheduling policies such as Round Robin (RR) does not perform well • Bluetooth MAC enforces tight coupling of uplink & downlink, which leads to slot wastage • TDD structure also restricts the packet size (1,3 or 5) Hasan Sözer

  5. conflicting objectives Goals, Assumptions & Approaches • Parameters of interest: • system throughput • packet delays • fairness • packet drop probability • simplicity • satisfying the low cost objective of Bluetooth standard. Hasan Sözer

  6. Goals, Assumptions & Approaches (Continues...) • Criterias that an efficient scheduling policy would depend on: • state of the queues at the Master and the Slaves • traffic arrival process at these queues • packet length distributions Hasan Sözer

  7. Goals, Assumptions & Approaches (Continues...) • N queues at the Master for a piconet with N slaves • Each slave has a queue for its connection with the Master • Binary information is used in order to represent the state of the queues: • 1 : has data to send 0: has no data awaiting • State of the queue at the Slave is available at the Master (requires only 1 bit of information to transfer) Hasan Sözer

  8. Priority Policy (PP) • There are four possibilities for the state of the queues regarding a connection: • 1-1: Both Master and Slave have data to send • 1-0 or 0-1: Only one side has data awaiting • 0-0: Neither of them has data to send • PP assigns different priorities to these: • 1-1 > 1-0 = 0-1, 0-0 is not scheduled • It is also argued that it could be 1-0 > 0-1(*) * Master:1 – Slave:0 > Master:0 – Slave:1 Hasan Sözer

  9. K-Fairness Policy (KFP) • Beyond optimization and system throughput: • Having a strict fairness bound • qmax: Master-Slave queue pair that has received maximum excess service (service sacrified to it) • qmin: Master-Slave queue pair that has sacrificed maximum service to other connections • (Services of qmax – Services of qmin) can be at most K • When K = 0, KFP tuns out to be pure Round Robin • In order to prevent more sacrifices: Change 1-0 into 1-1 Hasan Sözer

  10. Scheduling Data in Presence of Voice • Extend PP (to HOL-PP) & KFP (to HOL-KFP) • Consider slot utilization by using Head-of-the-line (HOL) packets (higher utilization -> higher priority) Hasan Sözer

  11. Bluetooth SAR Policy & Possible Improvements • Bluetooth Segmentation and Reassembly (SAR): • naive SAR is random: assigns data packet sizes (1, 3 or 5) probabilistically. • Instead, data arrival rates at the Master and Slave queues can be used -> Intelligent SAR (ISAR) (?): • Initially all queues have packet size of 1 • Packet sizes change according to the differences in arrival rates at the Master and Slave • Binary information represent high/low data rates Hasan Sözer

  12. Results & Conclusion • Simulation results (K=500 & P=4, for 5000 TDD slots): • KFP > PP > RR in throughput • KFP < PP < RR in average delay (units of slots) • KFP gives better throughput than PP with more fairness • ISAR > SAR by means of throughput • Keep It Simple and Stupid! Hasan Sözer

  13. Interconnecting Bluetooth-like Personal Area Networks Godfrey Tan MIT Laboratory of Computer Science Hasan Sözer

  14. Outline • Challenges of Interconnecting Bluetooth-like PANS & proposed solutions for each: • Scatternet topology formation • Packet routing • Channel or link scheduling • Conclusion Hasan Sözer

  15. Scatternet Formation • Decentralized and self-healing algorithm • Unique address for each node that are connected in a tree structure (constructed incrementally) • Loop-free • No packet overhead • No periodic routing messages • New nodes join with search announcements (root or the new node can choose among possible points of attachement) Hasan Sözer

  16. 0N 0* 10N-1 1* 100* 1010N-3 101* 10* 110N-2 11* 1010* 10110N-4 1011* Scatternet Formation (Continues...) • bk = k b’s, where • b = 0 or 1 • Each node holds the portion of the address space allocated to each child Hasan Sözer

  17. Packets Relaying & Channel Scheduling • Relaying of packets are accomplished by means of a technique that is similar to forwarding of IP packets • makes use of longest-prefix match • Channel scheduling problem is declared to be similar to the maximal matching problem for bi-partite graphs • An upper-bound of ceiling(d/2)*MaxDegree(*) is given for an algorithm of which details are not given * MaxDegree = depth of the tree, d = distance in hops Hasan Sözer

  18. Conclusion • It is declared that the algorithms are implemented in ns-2 and give good performance but simulation results are not presented • The key idea is to construct the scatternet as a tree • makes other problems easy to keep track of • If the root is the one that hadle new attachements, it would have large overhead • Enforcement of tree structure may cause deficiencies Hasan Sözer

  19. Scatternet Structure and Inter-Piconet Communication in the Bluetooth System Manish Kalia, Sumit Garg, Rajeev Shorey IBM India Research Laboratory Hasan Sözer

  20. Outline • Piconet models and possible scatternet structures • Single Piconet Model (SPM) • Scatternet Model • Two-Level Hierarchy of Piconets (TLP) • Shared Slave Piconets (SSP) • Performance Comparisons & Conclusion Hasan Sözer

  21. Single Piconet Model (SPM) • Single piconet is used even if there exists more then seven slaves • Model uses the “Park mode” • Timestamps are used in order to determine the period in which a slave remained parked/unparked • Periodically, parked Slave with the oldest timestamp is unparked and active Slave with oldest timestamp is parked • Each Slave remains unparked for the same time period Hasan Sözer

  22. Scatternet Model • Notion of a “Communicating Group” (CG): A group of mobile devices which have frequent data transfer in between • When forming scatternets try to make members of a CG reside in the same piconet • Start with a SPM, structure the scatternet by collecting traffic flow patterns • Master can observe destination addresses (Efficient policies for discovering and updating CGs are not investigated) Hasan Sözer

  23. Two-Level Hierarchy of Piconets (TLP) • Centralized design • Notion of root & leaf piconets • Masters of leaf piconets periodically become slaves of the root piconet (temporary Masters can be assigned) Hasan Sözer

  24. Shared Slave Piconets (SSP) • Decentralized structure • A Slave in between, periodically switchs to the hopping pattern of two different Masters. • Better load balancing & robust • Routing is more complex Hasan Sözer

  25. Performance Comparisons & Conclusion • Simulation results with to piconets: • System throughput: SSP > TLP > SPM • Average System Delays SPM >> TLP > SSP • Scatternet allows simultaneous communication in different piconets • In TLP leaf piconets periodically suspend communication • SPM can be improved by considering backlogged data at the Slave queues Hasan Sözer
