Quiz-1 (Sample Answer)
2020
Answer all questions:
1. Discuss three main requirements of an IoT network. Explain how the Bluetooth network standard
support above requirements.
[5]
Main five requirements are given in the following table, any three can be used for the answer.
IoT Network Requirements
Bluetooth Network Features
Mostly generate and transmit
short data bursts; mainly
machine generated sensor data
The standard support small to medium size payload in data
packets. Payload size depends on the connection type. The
standard
also support longer data burst transmissions
using the L2CAP protocol. The L2CAP protocol support the
segmentation and reassembly
property to send larger
payloads over the Bluetooth links.
Data generation rate can be
periodic, aperiodic or random,
i.e. data/packet interarrival time
could be variable
Bluetooth network can support variable packet scheduling
policy. The cluster head can adjust the POLL messaging
frequency to transmit packets arriving
with different
interarrival time. Generally the aperiodic or random traffic is
supported using the ACL links. It can also support
synchronous/periodic traffic such as voice using the SCO
connections
Low power consumption for
prolonged battery life.
Three class of devices supported with different maximum
transmission power. In addition, power control algorithm is
used. Power consumption is also controlled by regulating
the duty cycle of a Bluetooth device.
Different quality of service (QoS)
requirement nee
ds to be
supported. QoS is generally
defined by the throughput,
packet delay, packet
loss and
delay jitter.
Generally the QoS is determined by the throughput and
delay values.
Different QoS requirements can be met by
controlling polling frequency. Also cho
ice of connection
type such as ACL, SCO and eSCO, as well as
retransmission and channel coding techniques are used to
support different QoS requirements.
Support short to longer
transmission distances as well
as indoor/outdoor deployments
supporting different node
Bluetooth supports both short and longer distance
transmissions. In addition, differe
nt node densities are
managed by using the Piconet and the Scatternet
architecture. Piconet can support a smaller operating area
whereas the scatternet architecture supp
ort longer
transmission ranges.
