Concomitant improvements in wireless communication and sensor technologies have increased capabilities of wearable biosensors. These improvements have not transferred to wireless prosthesis/orthosis controllers, in part due to strict latency and power consumption requirements. We used a Bluetooth Low Energy 5.3 (BLE) network to study the influence of the connection interval (10–100 ms) and event length (2500–7500 μs), ranges appropriate for real-time myoelectric prosthesis/orthosis control on the maximum network size, power consumption, and latency. The number of connections increased from 4 to 12 as the connection interval increased from 10 to 50 ms (event length of 2500 μs). For connection intervals ≤50 ms, the number of connections reduced by ≥50% with the increasing event length. At a connection interval of 100 ms, little change was observed in the number of connections vs. event length. Across event lengths, increasing the connection interval from 10 to 100 ms decreased the average power consumed by approximately 16%. Latency measurements showed that an average of one connection interval (maximum of just over two) elapses between the application of the signal at the peripheral node ADC input and its detection on the central node. Overall, reducing the latency using shorter connection intervals reduces the maximum number of connections and increases power consumption. |
