在本論文中,我們提出了一個適用於藍芽分散網的路由協定,以MANET中原始端路由的觀念為基礎,並針對藍芽分散網的網路拓樸特性所設計。此路由協定將整合於BNEP內,以提供對藍芽規格的相容性。 此外,為了使分散網之拓樸能根據目前網路的交通流量分布進行適度調整,我們在此路由協定中加入一可調整拓樸的機制。在路由過程中,路由導向拓樸調整機制可以藉由建立新連結,以獲得網路中較有效率的傳輸路徑。 模擬結果顯示,在同樣的分散網拓樸及交通流量之情況下,提出的路由協定能夠有效降低傳統原始端路由協定所產生的路由負載問題。並且,在封包傳輸比率以及封包傳送延遲的效能方面,也間接的因為路由負載減少而稍微提昇。另外,模擬結果也顯示路由導向拓樸調整機制可以有效的改善微網(inter-piconet)間資料傳輸的效率,尤其對於降低平均封包傳送延遲的效果最為顯著。
In this thesis, we propose a protocol for routing in the Bluetooth Scatternt .The proposed protocol is based on the concept of source routing recommanded in MANET and operated on BNEP(Bluetooth Network Ecapsulation Protocol) layer. Additionally, we also integrate a topology forming function into this routing protocol to allow the scatternet topology adapting to the current traffic distribution. As a result, the routing- oriented topology forming operation can establish new Bluetooth connections to gain more efficient paths through the scatternet. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has less routing overhead than using traditional source routing protocol in Scatternet. The throughput and average packet latency is also improved significantly due to indirect effects of the reduced routing overhead. Moreover, the simulation results also show that the routing-oriented topology forming operation will further improve the performance of inter-piconet session, especially in the metric of average packet latency.
