Introduction of Zigbee technology

Abstract

In future the interlinkage wireless communication equipment should have some characteristic,such as low cost,short distance and low power consumption.Zigbee is built on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard,which meets these requirements by providing a cost-effective,low power consumption solution.This paper discussed about the technical characteristics,protocol model and application of the Zigbee technology,and compared Zigbee technology with blue-tooth technology.It is proved that Zigbee technology have good performance and potential.
