Achievement of Bluetooth adaptive packet selection strategies based on SNR estimation

It is necessary to estimate channel quality in order to put Bluetooth adaptive packet selection strategies into practice. However, the current Bluetooth channel quality estimation algorithms are either poor at timeliness or not applicable to systems which only support basic rate （BR） data packets （Gaussian frequency shift keying （GFSK） modulation scheme）. It is investigated to apply the channel quality estimation algorithm based on power spectrum to Bluetooth adaptive packet selection strategies in this paper. Simulation results and analysis show that the proposed channel quality estimation algorithm based on power spectrum can achieve the accuracy less than 0.2 dB in the estimation range required by Bluetooth adaptive packet selection strategies. It has simple calculation and strong timeliness. The algorithm can also be suitable for different modulation schemes of Bluetooth data packets. It provides a good precondition for the achievement of Bluetooth adaptive packet selection strategies.
