Abstract

In this paper, we present a new tree-based Bluetooth (BTH) scatternet formation and healing protocol called GC-tree, Our protocol enables group collaboration, e.g. wireless ad-hoc meetings, where individuals bring piconets with their devices in a scatternet to collaborate. We present experimental performance results from a prototype implementation using uff-the-self BTH v1.1 hardware and Linux-based devices. Finally, we complement our experimental results with a realistic simulation model
