Abstract

Bluetooth [1] is a wireless access technology where polling is used to sharebandwidth among the nodes. We have introduced a new poller named PredictiveFair Poller (PFP) in [2, 3]. In this paper we explain the operation of thePredictive Fair Poller and compare it with the conventional Round Robin pollerand the Fair Exhaustive Poller (FEP) [4] for two Best Effort trafficscenarios. We show through simulations that the Predictive Fair Poller is ableto divide bandwidth in a fair and efficient manner.
