Best Answer

Piconet is an ad-hoc network by linking a group of users which uses blue tooth technology protocols for allowing one 'master' device to interconnect with up to seven active 'slave' devices. Further, up to 255 slave devices could be inactive or packed and the master device can bring into active status at any given point of time.

A piconet


What is difference between Piconet and Scatternet?

A piconet is the type of connection that is formed between two or more Bluetooth-enabled devices, one device takes the role of 'master', and all other devices assume a 'slave' role for synchronization reasons. Where as a scatternet is a number of interconnected piconets that supports communication between more than 8 devices. Scatternets can be formed when a member of one piconet (either the master or one of the slaves) elects to participate as a slave in a second, separate piconet.

What is difference between Pico net and Scatter net?

Scatternets can be formed when a member of one piconet (either the master or one of the slaves) elects to participate as a slave in a second, separate piconet.


Why piconet have limitation of only 8 devices?

i think because of the three bit (LT_ADDR), the logical transport address which is used by the master to identify the destination -the active slaves- and as u know 3 bit combination generates 8 codes. the second reason -not sure- because of the limitation of the physical channel (1MHz) which is time multiplexed in the piconet.


What is bluetooth scatternet?

A scatternet is a type of ad-hoc computer network consisting of two or more piconets. The terms 'scatternet' and 'piconet' are typically applied to Bluetooth wireless technology.


What is the maximum number of bluetooth devices that can connect concurrently to one host?

In a Bluetooth piconet one master can communicate up to 7 active slaves, there can be some other up to 248 devices which are in sleep mode (may participate to communication actively when another active device goes into sleep mode). In Bluetooth scatternets (interconnected piconets) number of devices are not limited. Some slaves used as a bridge by participating two or more piconets. One of the most advanced topology defined for Bluetooth scatternets is Cube Connected Cycles architecture.


How do bluetooth devices work?

Bluetooth is a communications protocol. It's like a "language" between the devices that use it to communicate wirelessly. You could look at it as a language in this light, and for something like, say, a bluetooth cell phone to "talk" to a bluetooth headset, the units have to "speak the same language" to communicate wirelessly. And bluetooth is a language that permits each unit to reach the other with the data being transmitted and arriving in a specific way so that it can then be converted. In a bluetooth headset, our voice goes out and the audio from the incoming call arrives. These information streams are converted to digital bluetooth signals, and the data flows into and out of the headset. The headset "understands" the incoming signal from the cell phone, and can convert it into audio for us to hear. And the headset converts our voice into a bluetooth signal that it then sends to the phone, which "understands" that signal and converts it to be broadcast to the cell hub. The key to Bluetooth is the management of the information (or data) stacks, and the manner in which they are broadcast, and that is handled a little differently by different devices.

Is the bluetooth is a wireless computer networking?

Bluetooth is a network technology that connects mobile devices wirelessly over a short range to form a personal area network (PAN). They use short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio waves within the range of 2.400 to 2.485 GHz, instead of RS-232 data cables of wired PANs. Features of Bluetooth Bluetooth technology was released in 1999 as Bluetooth 1.0, by the Special Interest Group (SIG) which continues to manage it. It was initially standardized as IEEE 802.15.1. Mobile computing devices and accessories are connected wirelessly by Bluetooth using short-range, low-power, inexpensive radios. UHF radio waves within the range of 2.400 to 2.485 GHz are using for data communications. A PAN or a piconet can be created by Bluetooth within a 10 m radius. Regards, Peter
