Abstract
A system and method for reducing the probability of collisions in a Bluetooth wireless sensor network is disclosed. The system and method utilize Periodic Advertising with Response to receive status information from the plurality of wireless sensor devices. Therefore, rather than sending the Sensor Status message at random times, the wireless sensor devices are all assigned a response slot in one of the subevents. The relay device receives all of the sensor status messages and forwards the information to the next hop device using measurement collection packets. In some embodiments, the relay device compacts the information before transmitting the measurement collection packets.
