Abstract

Bluetooth is widely used today and the devices are cheap and have a low power consumption. Use of Bluetooth in a MANET as well as WSNs is therefore interesting.The overall aggregated bandwidth in a piconet is limited to 768kbps (Basic Data Rate). Using TDD, this bandwidth is shared between the nodes in a piconet based on the fairness algorithm applied . Thus the average bandwidth per node is reduced by the number of nodes transmitting in a piconet. If applying network coding to the piconet makes the communication more effcient, the required number of transmitted packets will decrease. A reduced number of transmitted packets will reduce the radiated power from the node. Furthermore, reduced radiated power will reduce the energy requirement, and increase the lifetime of the battery while maintaining the same bandwidth available. As Bluetooth is primarily used by small battery operated devices, an improved energy budget is welcome.
