Scatternet Formation Algorithm based on Relative Neighborhood Graph

This paper proposes a scatternet topology formation, self-healing, and self-routing path optimization algorithm based on Relative Neighborhood Graph. The performance of the algorithm using ns-2 and extensible Bluetooth simulator called blueware shows that even though RNG-FHR does not have superior performance, it is simpler and easier to implement in deploying the Ad-Hoc network in the distributed dynamic environments due to the exchange of fewer messages and the only dependency on local information. We realize that our proposed algorithm is more practicable in a reasonable size network than in a large scale.
