The Bluetooth Impact
Bluetooth Classic
Bluetooth Network Topology: Piconet
master slave
scatternet
q Piconet is formed by a master and many slaves (typically 1) Ø Up to 7 active slaves. Slaves can only transmit when requested
Ø Up to 255 parked slaves
q Active slaves are polled by master for transmission
q Any device can become a master (initiator becomes master)
q Each station gets an 8-bit parked address Þ 255 parked slaves/piconet
q A parked station can join in 2ms. Other stations can join in more time.
q Slaves can only transmit/receive to/from master. Slaves cannot talk to another slave in the piconet
q Scatter net: A device can participate in multiple Pico nets Þ Timeshare and must synchronize to the master of the current piconet. Active in one piconet, parked in another.
q Routing protocol not defined (a node can only talk to another node if within Bluetooth range of 10m)

Modulation and Data Rate
q Basic rate (BR):
Ø Binary Gaussian FSK (GFSK): 1 bit/symbol Ø Symbol duration = 1 μs: 1 Msps
Ø Data rate: 1 Mbps
q Enhanced data rate (EDR):
Ø Symbol duration is still 1 μs (1 Msps), but Ø μ/4-DQPSK; 2 bits/symbol; 2 Mbps
Ø 8DPSK: 3 bits/symbol; 3 Mbps
Time Time FSK GFSK
Frequency Hopping (1)
q Unlike WiFi, Bluetooth constantly switches channel within the same connection to avoid collisions with other nearby Bluetooth communications
q No two packets are transmitted on the same channel/frequency, but frequency is never switched in the middle of a packet transmission
q Such frequency switching is known as frequency hopping BT 1
Frequency Hopping (2)
q Bluetooth connections are slotted: packet transmission can start only at the beginning of a time slot
q 625 μs slots using a 312.5 μs (3200Hz) clock (1 slot = 2 clock ticks) q Time-division duplex (TDD)
Þ Downstream (master-to-slave) and upstream (slave-to-master) alternate q Master starts in even numbered slots only.
q Slaves start in odd numbered slots only
q Slaves can transmit right after receiving a packet from master
q Packets = 1 slot, 3 slot, or 5 slots long
q Enables master to start in even and slave in odd slots
q The frequency hop is skipped during a packet; frequency is hopped only at slot boundaries; at the beginning of the next slot after packet transmission/reception is complete; packet lengths may not align with slot boundaries
Frequency Hopping Illustrated
M=master, S = slave
Frequency Hopping Rate
1 frequency hop per packet: a packet can be 1,3, or 5 slot long (no hop in the middle of the packet); maximum FH rate = 1600Hz, minimum FH rate = 320Hz
q Consider a Bluetooth link where the master always transmits 3-slot packets. The transmission from the master is always followed up by a single-slot transmission from a slave. Assuming 625 μs slots, what is the effective frequency hopping rate (# of hopping per second)?
Answer: Given that frequency hopping cannot occur in the middle of a packet transmission, we only have 2 hops per 4 slots, or 1 hop per 2 slots.
The effective hopping rate = 1/(2x625x10-6) = 800 hops/s = 800Hz
Bluetooth Packet Format:
Basic Rate (BR)
q Packets can be up to five slots long. 5 slots =625×5=3125 μs.
Ø Maximum packet size = 72+54+2745 = 2871 μs Ø Some residual slot-time cannot be used (2871 < 3125)
q Access codes:
Ø Channel access code identifies the piconet
Ø Device access code for paging requests and response Ø Inquiry access code to discover units
q Header: member address (3b)+type code (4b)+flow control (1b)+ack/nack (1b)+sequence number (1b)+header error check (8b)=18b, which is encoded using 1/3 rate FEC resulting in 54b
q How many slots are needed to transmit a Bluetooth Basic Rate packet if the payload is (a) 400 bits, (b) 512 bits, and (c) 2400 bits. Assume that the non- payload portions do not change.
Ø Bluetooth transmissions are 1, 3, or 5 slots (2, 4, 6, etc. not allowed)
Ø Non-payload bits (max) = 54+72 = 126 bits
Ø Each slot can carry 625 bits at most
Ø (a) 400b payloadà400+126 = 526b packetà1 slot
Ø (b) 512b payloadà512+126 = 638b packetà2 slots would be sufficient, but will have to be padded for a 3-slot transmission (2-slot packets not allowed)
Ø (c) 2400b payloadà2400+126 = 2526b packetà5 slots ©2020
Bluetooth Packet Format:
Enhanced Data Rate (EDR)
q Modulation changes within the packet; facilitated by a guard interval lasting between 4.75 μs and 5.25 μs
q GFSK for Access Code and Header
q μ/4-DQPSK (2Mbps) or 8DPSK (3Mbps) after guard interval
q EDR payload can accommodate more data than BR, but still fits within maximum 5-slot due to higher data rates
Bluetooth Address Format
q The Bluetooth device address is a unique 48-bit address sent in the access code field of the packet header.
q The first (most significant) 24 bits represent the OUI (Organization Unique Identifier) or the Company ID
q The main purpose of the Bluetooth address is for identification and authentication, but
q The address is also used to seed the frequency hopping pseudorandom generator, to synchronize master and slave clocks, and to pair devices.
000666 = Roving Networks
Frequency Hopping with Pseudorandom Number Generator
q In Bluetooth Classic, FH is defined by a pseudorandom generating algorithm seeded with the following values
Ø UAP and LAP of the master device address, and Ø Bits 1-26 of the 28-bit Bluetooth clock
q The pseudorandom pattern would repeat itself after 227 hops Ø Would take 23.3 to repeat!
Ø In practice the pseudorandom sequence is never repeated
Bluetooth is both Time and Frequency
Synchronised
Illustration of Pseudorandom FH
Collision with
: fixed (non
adaptive) hopping
Collision Avoidance via
• Mark interfering channels as bad channels
• Avoid bad channels; hop between good channels only
• Minimum available (good) channels to hop = 20 (max. 79-20=59 channels can be marked as bad)
• AFH available only during Connected state (i.e., when two devices are exchanging data)
Adaptive FH (AFH)
AFH Illustration: hopping only between good channels
Channel assessment: RSSI/SNR, PER (left to chipset vendor; not specifid in standard)

q White: available (good to use) q Yellow: Bad

Bluetooth Connection Establishment Procedure
Inquiry and Paging Frequency Hopping
q Inquiry/page hopping sequence
Ø Hop over 32 subset of 79 channels/frequencies (to speedup)
Ø 32 is divided into two 16-channel trains
Ø For inquiry, each train is repeated 256 times before switching to the other train; must have 3 train switches (1st à 2nd à 1st à 2nd): each train effectively repeated 256 x 2 times
Ø Master sends two inquiry/page packets using 2 different frequencies per slot (hops in the middle of the slot; hops frequency in 312.5μs!), and listens for
responses (both frequencies) in the following slots (to speed up)àeventually 2 frequencies covered in 2 slots
q Connection establish time
Ø 16 x 625 μs = 10 ms for completing a train once
Ø Inquiry time (maximum) = 256 x 4 x 10 ms = 10.24 s Ø There is an additional paging time
Power Saving Modes in Bluetooth
Three inactive (power-saving) states:
1. Hold: Go inactive for a single short period and become active after that
2. Sniff: Low-power mode. Slave listens periodically after fixed sniff intervals.
3. Park: Very Low-power mode. Gives up its 3-bit active member address and gets an 8-bit parked member address. Wake up periodically
and listen to beacons. Master broadcasts a train of beacons periodically

IoT Communications Requirements
q IoT depends on large number of sensors that repetitively announce their states when enquired or polled
30° 55 km/hr 23 KwH
q Sensors need to transmit such small messages to a nearby gateway with
minimal energy consumption
q Requires simpler protocols (more power saving and avoid complicated
connecting procedures) than Bluetooth ClassicàBluetooth Smart or BLE
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Bluetooth LE or BLE
q Low Energy: 1% to 50% of Bluetooth classic
q For short broadcast: Your body temperature, Heart rate, Wearables, sensors, automotive, industrial.
Not for voice/video, file transfers, ...
q Small messages: 1Mbps data rate but throughput not critical. q Battery life: In years from coin cells
q Simple: Star topology. No scatter nets, mesh, ...
q Lower cost than Bluetooth classic
q New protocol design based on Nokia’s WiBree technology Shares the same 2.4GHz radio as Bluetooth
Þ Dual mode chips
q Most smartphones (iPhone, Android, ...) have dual-mode chips ©2020
BLE Channels
q 40 2MHz-wide channels: 3 (37,38,39) for advertising and 37 (0-36) for data q Advertising channels specially selected to avoid interference with popular
default WiFi channels (1,6,11)
BLE Advertising Channels Avoiding Popular
BLE Modulation and Data rate
q Binary GFSK over 2MHz channel: More significant frequency separations for ‘0’ and ‘1’ allows longer range with low power
Ø Note that with Bluetooth Classic, channel bandwidth is only 1MHz, so frequency separations are smaller
q 1 million symbols per secondà1 Mbps data rate
Benefit of Advertising Channels
q BLE simplifies discovery and broadcasting by using only three advertising channels (instead of 32 channels for inquiry/paging in BT Classic)
q A BLE device can broadcast advertising beacons on these 3 channels giving information about the device, so other devices can connect, but can also broadcast some sensor data
q Data channels are used to exchange data bidirectionally between two devices
Connection
q In BLE connections, devices wake up periodically after every connection interval (CI) time; transmit some data (connection event) and then go back to sleep until the next connection event
q Send a short blank packet if no data to send during a connection event
q More than one packet can be sent during a connection event
q Connection interval time can vary from 7.5ms to 4s and is negotiated during connection set up
q Hop frequency (switch to different data channel) at each event
