Abstract

In this paper, a Packets Reassembly and Segmentation (PRAS) protocol is proposed, to be used in conjunction with the Bluetooth sniff mode, to re-assemble small host controller interface (HCI) (ACL) data packets to larger ones so that the link controller can use a larger baseband packet type (e.g. 3-DH5) as appropriate. The associated Bluetooth operations and control procedures of the PRAS protocol are given. The analysis shows that this protocol reduces Bluetooth's use of small size baseband packets and significantly enhances packet transmission efficiency with lower overhead in Bluetooth sniff mode.
