Abstract
Increase in the number of coexisting networks in license free Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band causes interferences for industrial automation, e.g., shop floors of manufacturing facilities. In order to ensure the reliability for automation networks, interference avoidance schemes are required. This paper proposes a novel Predefined Hopping Pattern (PHP) technique for frequency hopping in ISM band, which mitigates self-interferences and static interferers as well. This technique generates optimized frequency hopping sequences which ensure sufficient frequency diversity and frequency offset among the coexisting Bluetooth piconets and exploits transmission experiences for a particular frequency in eliminating interference. Simulation studies have shown that PHP has better collision avoidance rate than well known adaptive frequency hopping (AFH) and adaptive frequency rolling (AFR) schemes.
