ZIGBEE

WHAT IS ZIGBEE?
Technological Standard Created for Control and Sensor Networks Based on the IEEE 802.15.4 Standard Created by the ZigBee Alliance

SENSOR/CONTROL NETWORK REQUIREMENTS

Large networks (large number of devices and large coverage area) that can form autonomously and that will operate very reliably for years without any operator intervention Very long battery life (years off of a AA cell), very low infrastructure cost (low device & setup costs) and very low complexity and small size Device data rate and QoS needs are low Standardized protocols are necessary to allow multiple vendors to interoperate

WHY ZIGBEE?
Reliable Mesh networking Low data-rate applications Very long battery life Secure Scalable Low cost Global applicability

HOW DOES ZIGBEE WORK?

Engineers feel Wi-Fi and Bluetooth may be unsuitable. This spawned the idea of digital radio networks via direct-sequence spread spectrum coding. ZigBee-compliant radios may operate on one of three different radio bands: the 800 MHz, 900 MHz, or 2.4 GHz frequencies. Follows the internationally recognized radio standard for the MAC and PHY Layer.

ZIGBEE AND BLUETOOTH

Optimized for different applications
ZigBee
Bluetooth o Larger packets over small network o Smaller packets over o Ad-hoc networks large network o File transfer o Mostly Static networks o Screen graphics, pictures, handswith many, infrequently free audio, Mobile phones, headsets, PDAs, etc. used devices
o

Home automation, toys, remote controls, etc.

ZIGBEE AND BLUETOOTH

Address Different Needs
Bluetooth is a cable replacement for items like Phones, Laptop Computers, Headsets Bluetooth expects regular charging o Target is to use <10% of host power
19

ZIGBEE AND BLUETOOTH

Address Different Needs
ZigBee is better for devices Where the battery is rarely replaced o Targets are :  Tiny fraction of host power  New opportunities where wireless not yet used

ZigBee and Bluetooth

CONCLUSION
ZigBee targets applications not addressable by Bluetooth or any other wireless standard ZigBee and Bluetooth complement for a broader solution

IEEE 802.15.4
IEEE 802.15.4 is a standard defined by IEEE for low rate, wireless personal area network. The standard defines the Physical layer and Medium Access Layer

30

IEEE 802.15.4 CONTINUED

PHY- It defines low power spread spectrum radio operating at 2.4 GHz with a basic data rate of 250 kbps MAC -defines how multiple 802.15.4 radios operating in the same area will share the airwaves. The MAC supports several architectures, including a star topology, tree topologies and mesh topologies

Parting Thought
Just as the personal computer was a symbol of the '80s, and the symbol of the '90s is the World Wide Web, the next nonlinear shift, is going to be the advent of cheap sensors. -Paul Saffo Institute for the Future
