| Abstract |
If the PNC is shutting down or wants to leave the WPAN, it uses the handover process to give control to another device in the piconet. However when the PNC is selected, only the device capability information is checked in the WPAN standard specification and no detail criteria is described. In this paper, the PNC selection method with considering the number and density of device to maximize the piconet data throughput in the WPAN is studied. From the numerical analysis results, the considering with the devices concentration has higher data throughput compared with the uniform distribution. For the efficient performance, the device distribution within the piconet should be considered in the PNC selection. |
