  Abstract

The IEEE 802.15.3 high-rate WPAN has been developed to communicate with devices within 10m. A piconet consists of one Piconet Coordinator (PNC) and several devices. The devices associated with a parent piconet can become child PNCs in order to form child piconets. A mesh network made up of a parent piconet and several child piconets can support multi-hop communications. In this paper, we analyze the maximum level and the avaliable superframe size to make the best use of bandwidth for multi-hop communications, and compare the analysis with the simulation results in terms of time to discover devices for multi-hop communications. The average number of levels in mesh networks is shown to be about 1.9 when the number of devices increases within a fixed area. We have also shown that the maximum available superframe size is 52ms and the discovery time is approximately 155ms.
