ZigBee is a standard based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard for wireless personal networks. This standard allows for the creation of very lost cost and low power networks - these applications run for years rather than months. These networks are created from sensors and actuators and can wireless control many electrical products such as remote controls, medical, industrial, and security sensors.
Hundreds of companies are creating applications including Mitsubishi, Motorola, Freescale, and Siemens. This book is written for engineers who plan to develop ZigBee applications and networks, to understand how they work, and to evaluate this technology to see if it is appropriate to a particular project. This book does not simply state facts but explains what ZigBee can do through detailed code examples.

| Note | ePub, short for electronic publication is one of our favorites and should be yours for a couple of reasons. ePub offers reflowable text giving you flexibility to manipulate how the content is presented. Moreover, lots of cool features are now being developed for the reader like advanced video and audio. ePub is now an industry standard, so all of the "non-propreitary" hardware manufacturers are now supporting it. |
Zigbee Wireless Networking
Chapter One
Hello ZigBee
Wireless networking standards are everywhere. You've heard of WiFi™ and Bluetooth™ and cellular technology. Perhaps you've heard of Active RFID, Wibree, WiMAX™, or Wireless USB. So, why ZigBee™?
The ZigBee wireless networking standard fits into a market that is simply not filled by other wireless technologies (see Figure 1.1). While most wireless standards are striving to go faster, ZigBee aims for low data rates. While other wireless protocols add more and more features, ZigBee aims for a tiny stack that fits on 8-bit microcontrollers. While other wireless technologies look to provide the last mile to the Internet or deliver streaming high-definition media, ZigBee looks to control a light or send temperature data to a thermostat. While other wireless technologies are designed to run for hours or perhaps days on batteries, ZigBee is designed to run for years. And while other wireless technologies provide 12 to 24 months of shelf life for a product, ZigBee products can typically provide decades or more of use.
The market category ZigBee serves is called "wireless sensor networking and control," or simply, "wireless control." In fact, the slogan for ZigBee is, "Wireless Control That Simply Works."
I'll get to that in a moment (the first code example in this book, "Hello ZigBee," simply works). The wireless control market has a number of unique needs for which ZigBee is ideally suited, because ZigBee is:
• Highly reliable
• Cost-effective
• Able to achieve very low power
• Highly secure
• An open global standard
