Zig-bee
Zig-bee is a specification for a suite of high level communication protocols using small, low-power digital radios based on the IEEE 802.15.4,2006 standard for wireless personal area networks (WPANs), such as wireless headphones connecting with cell phones via short-range radio. The technology defined by the Zig-bee specification is intended to be simpler and less expensive than other WPANs, such as Bluetooth. Zig-bee is targeted at radio-frequency (RF) applications that require a low data rate, long battery life, and secure networking. Zig-bee is a low data rate, two-way standard for home automation and data networks. The standard specification for up to 254 nodes including one master, managed from a single remote control. Real usage examples of Zig-bee includes home automation tasks such as turning lights on, setting the home security system, or starting the VCR. With Zig-bee all these tasks can be done from anywhere in the home at the touch of a button. Zig-bee also allows for dial-in access via the Internet for automation control. Zig-bee protocol is optimized for very long battery life measured in months to years from inexpensive, off-the-shelf non-rechargeable batteries, and can control lighting, air conditioning and heating, smoke and fire alarms, and other security devices. The standard supports 2.4 GHz (worldwide), 868 MHz (Europe) and 915 MHz (Americas) unlicensed radio bands with range up to 100 meters.
IEEE 802.15.4
IEEE 802.15.4 is a standard which specifies the physical layer and medium access control for lowrate wireless personal area networks (LR-WPAN's).This standard was chartered to investigate a low data rate solution with multi-month to multi-year battery life and very low complexity. It is
operating in an unlicensed, international frequency band. Potential applications are sensors, interactive toys, smart badges, remote controls, and home automation. 802.15.4 Is part of the 802.15 wireless personal-area network efforts at the IEEE? It is a simple packet-based radio protocol aimed at very low-cost, battery-operated widgets and sensors (whose batteries last years, not hours) that can intercommunicate and send low-bandwidth data to a centralized device. As of 2007, the current version of the standard is the 2006 revision. It is maintained by the IEEE 802.15 working group. It is the basis for the Zig-bee specification, which further attempts to offer a complete networking solution by developing the upper layers which are not covered by the standard.
802.15.4 Protocol
Data rates of 250 kbps with 10-100 meter range. Two addressing modes; 16-bit short and 64-bit IEEE addressing. CSMA-CA channel access. Power management to ensure low power consumption. 16 channels in the 2.4GHz ISM band Low duty cycle - Provides long battery life Low latency Support for multiple network topologies: Static, dynamic, star and mesh Up to 65,000 nodes on a network Comparison with other technologies Zig-Bee enables broad-based deployment of wireless networks with low-cost, low-power solutions. It provides the ability to run for years on inexpensive batteries for a host of monitoring applications: Lighting controls, AMR (Automatic Meter Reading), smoke and CO detectors, wireless telemetry, HVAC control, heating control, home security, Environmental controls and shade controls, etc. Zigbee Technology: Wireless Control that Simply Works Why is Zigbee needed? There are a multitude of standards that address mid to high data rates for voice, PC LANs, video, etc. However, up till now there hasnt been a wireless network standard that meets the unique needs of sensors and control devices. Sensors and controls dont need high bandwidth but they
do need low latency and very low energy consumption for long battery lives and for large device arrays. There are a multitude of proprietary wireless systems manufactured today to solve a multitude of problems that also dont require high data rates but do require low cost and very low current drain. These proprietary systems were designed because there were no standards that met their requirements. These legacy systems are creating significant interoperability problems with each other and with newer technologies.
Three devices in network 1. zigbee PAN coordinator (MASTER) 2. zigbee router (full function device) 3. zigbee end device(reduced function device)
The features of the PHY are activation and deactivation of the radio transceiver, energy detection(ED), link quality indication (LQI), channel selection, clear channel assessment (CCA) and transmitting as well as receiving packets across the physical medium. The standard offers two PHY options based on the frequency band. Both are based on direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS). The data rate is 250kbps at 2.4GHz, 40kbps at 915MHz and 20kbps at 868MHz. The higher data rate at 2.4GHz is attributed to a higher-order modulation scheme. Lower frequency provide longer range due to lower propagation losses. Low rate can be translated into better sensitivity and larger coverage area. Higher rate means higher throughput, Lower latency or lower duty cycle. There is a single channel between 868 and 868.6MHz, 10 channels between 902.0 and 928.0MHz, and 16 channels between 2.4 and 2.4835GHz.
MAC LAYER
The media access control (MAC) layer was designed to allow multiple topologies without complexity. The power management operation doesnt require multiple modes of operation. The MAC allows a reduced functionality device (RFD) that neednt have flash nor large amounts of ROM or RAM. The MAC was designed to handle large numbers of devices without requiring them to be parked.
MLME-GTS - GTS management MLME-RESET request for MLME to perform reset MLME-ORPHAN - orphan device management MLME-RX-ENABLE - enabling/disabling of radio system
Network Layer
The responsibilities of the Zigbee NWK layer include: Starting a network: The ability to successfully establish a new network. Joining and leaving a network: The ability to gain membership (join) or relinquish membership (leave) a network. Configuring a new device: The ability to sufficiently configure the stack for operation as required. Addressing: The ability of a Zigbee coordinator to assign addresses to devices joining the network. Synchronization within a network: The ability for a device to achieve synchronization with another device either through tracking beacons or by polling. Security: applying security to outgoing frames and removing security to terminating frames
Network Summary
The network layer builds upon the IEEE 802.15.4 MACs features to allow extensibility of coverage. Additional clusters can be added; networks can be consolidated or split up.
Application layer
The Zigbee application layer consists of the APS sub-layer, the ZDO and the manufacturerdefined application objects. The responsibilities of the APS sub-layer include maintaining tables for binding, which is the ability to match two devices together based on their services and their needs, and forwarding messages between bound devices. Another responsibility of the APS sublayer is discovery, which is the ability to determine which other devices are operating in the personal operating space of a device. The responsibilities of the ZDO include defining the role of the device within the network (e.g., Zigbee coordinator or end device), initiating and/or responding to binding requests and establishing a secure relationship between network devices. The manufacturer-defined application objects implement the actual applications according to the Zigbee-defined application descriptions
This layer provides the following services: Discovery: The ability to determine which other devices are operating in the personal operating space of a device. Binding: The ability to match two or more devices together based on their services and their needs and forwarding messages between bound devices

Zigbee-compliant products operate in unlicensed bands worldwide, including 2.4GHz (global), 902 to 928MHz (Americas), and 868MHz (Europe). Raw data throughput rates of 250Kbps can be achieved at 2.4GHz (16 channels), 40Kbps at 915MHz (10 channels), and 20Kbps at 868MHz (1
channel). The transmission distance is expected to range from 10 to 100m, depending on power output and environmental characteristics. Like Wi-Fi, Zigbee uses direct-sequence spread spectrum in the 2.4GHz band, with offset-quadrature phase-shift keying modulation. Channel width is 2MHz with 5MHz channel spacing. The 868 and 900MHz bands also use direct-sequence spread spectrum but with binary-phase-shift keying modulation.
