Wireless technologies such as 802.11 do not impose topology constraints on the network; however, Bluetooth imposes certain constraints for constructing valid topologies. The performance of Bluetooth depends largely on these topologies. This paper presents and evaluates the performance of a new evolutionary scatternet topology construction protocol for Bluetooth networks. A scatternet can be viewed as a Bluetooth ad hoc network that is formed by interconnecting piconets.
