            Abstract : 
We present an analytical model for single-slave Bluetooth piconets when the coexistence of multiple interfering devices produces collisions. Closed-form expressions for the channel throughput and the mean packet delay are obtained, including the time spent waiting on the node´s queue. The effect of propagation losses and asynchronous piconets are also discussed. The results of the analysis are validated through simulation.
