Abstract:
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is emerging as an appealing solution for several Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications that require low cost and low power consumption. In particular, in this context, some applications need to collect data from sensors distributed over a wide area and require predictable behavior and real-time guarantees for processing such data with bounded delays. For this reason, some works in the literature proposed approaches that enable BLE-based real-time mesh networks. However, these approaches require offline configurations, thus limiting the flexibility and adaptability of the network. This work introduces a solution to build real-time mesh networks by enabling BLE devices to find a suitable configuration at runtime.
