Wireless Link Characteristics (1)
Differences from wired link ….
 decreased
signal strength: radio signal
attenuates as it propagates through matter
(path loss)
 interference from other sources: standardized
wireless network frequencies (e.g., 2.4 GHz)
shared by other devices (e.g., phone); devices
(motors) interfere as well
 multipath propagation: radio signal reflects off
objects ground, arriving ad destination at
slightly different times
…. make communication across (even a point to point)
wireless link much more “difficult”
6: Wireless and Mobile Networks

Wireless Link Characteristics (2)
 SNR: signal-to-noise ratio
larger SNR – easier to
extract signal from noise (a
“good thing”)
 SNR versus BER tradeoffs
 given physical layer:
increase power -> increase
SNR->decrease BER
 given SNR: choose physical
layer that meets BER
requirement, giving highest
thruput

 don’t collide with ongoing transmission by other node
 802.11: no collision detection!
 difficult to receive (sense collisions) when transmitting due

Avoiding collisions (more)
idea: allow sender to “reserve” channel rather than random
access of data frames: avoid collisions of long data frames
 sender first transmits small request-to-send (RTS) packets
to BS using CSMA
 RTSs may still collide with each other (but they’re short)
 BS broadcasts clear-to-send CTS in response to RTS
 CTS heard by all nodes
 sender transmits data frame
 other stations defer transmissions
avoid data frame collisions completely
using small reservation packets!

Connection State Machine

Inquiry Scan


Inquiry



A device that wants to be discovered will
periodically enter this mode and listen for inquiry
packets.
Device sends an Inquiry packet addressed to GIAC
or DIAC
Transmission is repeated on the inquiry hop
sequence of frequencies.
Inquiry Response

When an inquiry message is received in the inquiry
scan state, a response packet (FHS) containing the
responding device address must be sent after a
random number of slots.
Bluetooth
56
Connection State Machine

Page



The master uses the clock information, about the slave
to be paged, to determine where in the hop sequence,
the slave might be listening in the page scan mode.
The master sends a page message
Page Scan


(contd.)
The page scan substate can be entered by the slave
from the standby state or the connection state. It
listens to packets addressed to its DAC.
Page Response

On receiving the page message, the slave enters the
slave page response substate. It sends back a page
response consisting of its ID packet which contains its
DAC, at the frequency for the next slot from the one in
which page message was received.
Bluetooth
57
Power Control Modes

Sniff Mode



This is a low power mode in which the listening activity of
the slave is reduced.
In the sniff mode, the slave listens for transmissions
only at fixed intervals Tsniff, at the offset slot Dsniff for
Nsniff times. These parameters are given by the LMP in
the master when it issues the SNIFF command to the
slave.
Hold Mode



Slave temporarily (for Thold sec) does not support ACL
packets on the channel (possible SCO links will still be
supported).
By this capacity can be made free to do other things like
scanning, paging, inquiring, or attending another piconet.
The slave unit keeps its active member address
(AM_ADDR).
Bluetooth
58
Power Control Modes

(contd.)
Park Mode






This is a very low power mode with very little activity.
The slave however, stays synchronized to the channel.
The parked slaves regularly listen for beacon signals at
intervals decided by the beacon structure communicated
to the slave during the start of parking.
The parked slave has to be informed about a transmission
in a beacon channel which is supported by the master to
keep parked slaves in synchronization and send them any
other information.
Any message to be sent to a parked member are sent
over the broadcast channel.
It also helps the master to have more than seven slaves.
