    The Bluetooth system provides point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communications with no peer-to-peer communication. For peer-to-peer communication, a slave should be able to communicate with other slaves as well as a master. To do this, the master should indirectly forward the packets. However, the end-to-end delay of forwarding packets may be increased because the packets should be forwarded at network layer. Forwarding packets for peer-to-peer communications may also bring about some needless waste of wireless resource. In this paper, we propose the addressing policy for efficient peer-to-peer communications in Bluetooth. We also address the dynamic master selection policy in which a master is dynamically selected in order to minimize the average channel occupancy. To dynamically change master in a piconet, the master-slave switching should be executed as soon as possible. Therefore, we propose the fast master-slave switching mechanism in order to minimize the switching delay. It is observed from the simulations that our proposed policies perform better than the naive Bluetooth specification.
