Mesh Network with Arduino Pro Mini & HC-05

Hi,

I am new here and a beginner in Arduino and programming. I have this school project, where I need to create a mesh network. I am using these components:

  • Arduino Pro Mini

  • [HC-05
  • [/list]

    I have interfaced the BT module with pro mini, and have tested it on the BlueTerm App, it’s working fine. Now I want to create a mesh network where I have around 10 nodes and each node will be sending data to its nearest node.

    So, should I add some addresses in the sending packet to recognize the node from which data is coming?

    Suggestions are welcome.

    Thanks.](HC-05 Bluetooth Module Pinout, Datasheet, Features & Applications - The Engineering Projects)

    Does the HC-05 support mesh networking? If it does, you’re good to go otherwise you will need to find a bluetooth module that supports it.

    This simple mesh network works with any radio that acts as a wireless UART, and can be built and demonstrated using wired connections.

    Even if it doesn’t can’t we create it with logic. Like first send the Address bytes and then the actual data. The receiving side will first decode it get the address and then read the data, will save it in the respective node.

    Thanks for the link, I will look into that as well.
