The Performance Evaluation of Qos in Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) on Impact of Bluetooth WormsDOI: 10.5923/j.jwnc.20120205.05 Keywords: Bluetooth, Bluetooth Security, Scheduling, Polling, Piconet, Symmetric , Asymmetric, Worms Abstract: The Bluetooth technology is the convergence of Mobile Communication and Computing Applications. The set of Mobile Devices ”Laptops, Notebook Computers,PDA’s,Mobile Smart Phones etc” connected by Bluetooth protocol forms a Bluetooth Network or Bluetooth Piconet or WPAN.Even through the devices have numerous benefits its open nature increases the threats and risks being posed on them. The wired network faces challenging problems because of internet worms, similiarly the Bluetooth Network or WPAN faces serious problems because of Bluetooth Worms. This paper gives a comparative study of WPAN performance on impact of Bluetooth Worms in Bluetooth Piconet (symmetric) and Bluetooth Piconet(asymmetric) and derives the result how the degree of homogeneity increases the infection rate.
