BMADS: BLE Mesh Asynchronous Dynamic Scanning 2021 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted The Bluetooth low-energy (BLE) mesh profile, currently standardized by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), assumes that friend and relay nodes should be continuously scanning the channel ready to receive any incoming transmissions (TXs). This is very inefficient in terms of energy consumption. Hence, we present BMADS, an asynchronous dynamic scanning mechanism designed to reduce the overall energy consumption of the mesh network. BMADS is implemented as a new feature for the currently published BLE mesh specifications without modifying its core. This feature reduces the scanning cycles of the nodes, but still ensuring the reliability. To make this possible, BMADS sends a new control message sequence before transmitting the data. This sequence puts the nodes into continuous scan mode, preparing the network for data TX. The proposal can be used in BLE sensor networks that can tolerate a certain TX delay and require especially low-energy consumption. BMADS allows a theoretical reduction in the energy consumption of the relay nodes up to 98%. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/T31-20R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/RTI2018-095684-B-100 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/RTI2018-099063-B-100 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/RTI2018-099880-B-C32 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 10.238 2021 COMPUTER SCIENCE, INFORMATION SYSTEMS 9 / 163 = 0.055 2021 Q1 T1 TELECOMMUNICATIONS 6 / 92 = 0.065 2021 Q1 T1 ENGINEERING, ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC 18 / 274 = 0.066 2021 Q1 T1 3.848 2021 Computer Networks and Communications 2021 Q1 Computer Science Applications 2021 Q1 Signal Processing 2021 Q1 Information Systems and Management 2021 Q1 Information Systems 2021 Q1 17.1 2021 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Valenzuela, J.L.
