Brief Overview
The 802 Wireless Space
Physical layer and media access contol for low rate wireless personal area networks
(LR-WPANs) Basis for the ZigBee, WirelessHART, and
MiWi specification
IEEE 802.15.4 specifies:
A wireless network which offers:• Low cost• Low power consumption• Low speed of communication
IEEE 802.15.4 tries to achieve:
and many more....
The IEEE 802.15.4 standard was completed in May 2003.
The ZigBee specifications were ratified on 14 December 2004.
The ZigBee Alliance announced public availability of Specification 1.0 on 13 June 2005.
Much research is still going on with ZigBee.
Brief History
Uses the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol Cost effective Low power consumption Works on 2.4 GHz, 915 MHz, 868 MHz ISM freq. Maximum data rates for each band are 250
kbps, 40 kbps and 20 kbps, respectively Air interface is direct sequence spread
spectrum (DSSS) using binary phase shift keying (BPSK) for 868 MHz and 915 MHz and offset-quaderature phase shift keying (OQPSK) for 2.4 GHz

It has been suggested that the name evokes
the haphazard paths that bees follow as they harvest pollen, similar to the way packets would move through a mesh network
Why is it called ZigBee?
Bee dance used for communication:

ZigBee Network Devices
ZigBee Coordinator (ZBC) (IEEE 802.15.4 FFD)
• Only one in a network• Initiates network• Stores information about the network• All devices communicate with the ZBC• Routing functionality• Bridge to other networks
•Optional component•Routes between nodes•Extends network coverage•Manages local address allocation/de-
allocation
ZigBee Router (ZBR) (IEEE 802.15.4 FFD)
•Optimized for low power consumption•Cheapest device type•Communicates only with the
coordinator•Sensor would be deployed here
