Bluetooth is a low-cost, low-power and short-range wireless communication technology, which operates in the global unlicensed 2.4GHz ISM band. Recently many people have paid close attention to do a lot of relevant research and product development on it. In addition to the scatternet formation problem, two major issues of Bluetooth, scheduling and routing, also greatly interest the researchers. In this paper, we propose new scatternet topology architecture for Bluetooth networks, called multi-ring scatternet. The scatternet formation and packet routing method are presented. The self-routing property of multi-ring scatternet makes its routing method efficient and low overhead. Comparing to the Bluetree scatternet, the proposed scatternet is more reliable and relieves the bottleneck at root nodes. As compared with the BlueRing scatternet, it reduces the network diameter and average routing path. The simulation results reveal that our multi-ring scatternet topology gains better performance by the three metrics of number of piconets, average routing path length and throughput.
