Abstract

In this paper we view the scheduling problem in Bluetooth as a bin packing problem (BPP) with k-preview items. We analytically demonstrate that even though the First Fit Decreasing with k-preview Items (FFD-kI) algorithm has the same asymptotic worst case performance ratio as the Look Ahead Round Robin (LARR) algorithm, it achieves a competitive asymptotic average case performance ratio which is superior to LARR and Round Robin (RR). We present both worst case and average case results. Extensive simulation results show that in a Bluetooth piconet, the FFD-kI algorithm achieves significantly better throughput and channel utilization performances over LARR and RR.
