Matlab simulate bluetooth network

Skill matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit/skills-catalog/wireless-communications/matlab-simulate-bluetooth-network

Simulate Bluetooth system-level networks using the Bluetooth Toolbox. Use this skill for any Bluetooth topology: BLE ACL (Asynchronous Connection-Less) data connections, CIS (Connected Isochronous Stream) and LE Audio for stereo speakers or hearing aids, BLE GAP (Generic Access Profile) connection establishment with advertising and scanning, Classic BR/EDR piconets with ACL data and SCO (Synchronous Connection-Oriented) voice links, and BLE+BR/EDR coexistence with adaptive frequency hopping. Covers bluetoothLENode, bluetoothNode, bluetoothLEConnectionConfig, bluetoothLECISConfig, bluetoothLEGAPConfig, bluetoothConnectionConfig, configureConnection, kpi (), updateChannelList, and all Bluetooth statistics.From its SKILL.md

One thing to look at

no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.

What its file declares

Bluetooth System-Level Simulation

Entry point for all Bluetooth system-level simulation. All Bluetooth simulations use sim = wirelessNetworkSimulator.init and follow the workflow defined in matlab-simulate-wireless-network (simulator init, traffic, mobility, instrumentation, addNodes, run).

When to Use

BLE ACL point-to-point or star network connections
LE Audio unicast with CIS/CIG (stereo speakers, hearing aids)
BLE GAP connection establishment (advertising, scanning, connection timing)
Classic BR/EDR piconets with ACL data or SCO voice
BLE + BR/EDR coexistence with adaptive frequency hopping
Any simulation using bluetoothLENode, bluetoothNode

When Not to Use

Non-Bluetooth wireless simulations (use matlab-simulate-wireless-network instead)
PHY-layer or link level Bluetooth waveform generation, receiver analysis or BER analysis
Generic simulator setup, traffic models, or mobility (use matlab-simulate-wireless-network)

Node Roles

BLE (ACL, CIS): bluetoothLENode("central"), bluetoothLENode("peripheral")
BR/EDR: bluetoothNode("central"), bluetoothNode("peripheral") — max 7 peripherals per central

Traffic Attachment Rules

addTrafficSource(sourceNode, traffic, ...):

ACL/CIS/BR/EDR: DestinationNode=peer required. CIS also needs CISConfig=cfgCISOut.
BR/EDR SCO: No traffic call — implicit via SCOPacketType in connection config.

kpi() Availability

Topology	`"throughput"`	`"latency"`	`"PLR"` / `"PDR"`	Layer
BLE ACL	LL only	App only	Both LL and App	`"LL"` or `"App"`
BLE CIS	LL only	App only	Both LL and App	`"LL"` or `"App"`
BR/EDR	Baseband	—	Baseband	`"Baseband"`

Connection/Configuration Setup

Topology	Config Object	Function	Notes
BLE ACL	`bluetoothLEConnectionConfig`	`configureConnection(cfg, central, peripheral)`	Per-peripheral in loop; unique `AccessAddress` per connection
BLE CIS	`bluetoothLEConnectionConfig` + `bluetoothLECISConfig`	`[~, cfgCISOut] = configureConnection(cfg, central, peripheral, CISConfig=cfgCIS)`	Pass `cfgCISOut` to `addTrafficSource(..., CISConfig=cfgCISOut)`
BR/EDR	`bluetoothConnectionConfig`	`configureConnection(cfg, central, peripherals)`	Single call with vector of peripherals

Common Mistakes

bluetoothNode for BLE (or vice versa): BR/EDR = bluetoothNode, BLE = bluetoothLENode
Wrong kpi Layer: BLE throughput → "LL", BLE latency → "App", BR/EDR → "Baseband" only
Properties locked after run(): Node/connection properties cannot change mid-sim. Use updateChannelList for mid-sim channel updates.
configureConnection with peripheral vector for BLE: Must call per-peripheral in loop (BR/EDR accepts vector)
Unique AccessAddress per connection: Each BLE connection on same central needs different AccessAddress
DataRate in Kbps: DataRate=100 means 100 Kbps, not 100 bps
GeneratePacket=true is not valid: Not applicable for network-level simulation. Use OnTime=Inf for continuous traffic.
