The Connected Home:
• The features of a connected home exist today; they are not dreams of tomorrow. This home is
connected in the sense that normally independent systems are linked to a centrally controlled
system. In a connected home, your home computer, TV, lighting and heating controls, home
security system and many appliances within the home can talk to each other via the Internet. These
linked systems can be controlled through various devices, including your pager, cellular phone, TV,
home PC, PDA, or even your automobile.
• More specifically, the connected home offers the following: new forms of entertainment; anywhere,
anytime communication with family, friends and coworkers; advanced home control and security;
new ways to buy over the Internet; safe and secure e-mail and other communications; and always-on,
high speed Internet access - all from reliable providers.

• Intermittent
– Basic communication
• Repetitive low latency data
– Allocation of guaranteed time slots
Semiconductors 22
The Network Coordinator
• Transmits network beacons
• Sets up a network
• Manages network nodes
• Stores network node information
• Routes messages between paired nodes
• Receives constantly
Semiconductors 23
The Network Node
• Is generally battery powered
• Searches for available networks
• Transfers data from its application as necessary
• Determines whether data is pending
• Requests data from the network coordinator
• Can sleep for extended periods
Semiconductors 24
Stack System Requirements
• 8-bit C, e.g. 80c51
• Full protocol stack <32k
• Simple node only stack ~4k
• Coordinators require extra RAM
– node device database
– transaction table
– pairing table

Standardization Challenge
How do we make a protocol a standard?
• ZigBee Alliance created with companies who share a
common vision
• Alliance initiates need for low data rate W-PAN in
IEEE, 802.15.4 is born
• Both MAC and PHY proposals win vote in IEEE
• Alliance is focussed on:
– Upper Layers of stack
– Interoperability
– Marketing
• Keep initial participants limited until spec basics are
defined

Timing Considerations
ZigBee:
• New slave enumeration = 30ms typically
• Sleeping slave changing to active = 15ms typically
• Active slave channel access time = 15ms typically
Bluetooth:
• New slave enumeration = >3s
• Sleeping slave changing to active = 3s typically
• Active slave channel access time = 2ms typically
ZigBee protocol is optimized for timing critical applications

Power Considerations
ZigBee Bluetooth
• 2+ years from ‘normal’ • Power model as a mobile
batteries phone (regular charging)
• Designed to optimise slave • Designed to maximise ad-
power requirements hoc functionality
Application example of a light
switch with respect to latency and
power consumption …...
Semiconductors 36
Battery Life & Latency in a
Lightswitch
• Bluetooth would either :
– keep a counter running so that it
could predict which hop
frequency the light would have
reached or
– use the inquiry procedure to find
the light each time the switch was
operated.
Semiconductors 37
To reduce latency, Bluetooth would:
• The two devices must stay within 60 us (~1/10 of a hop)
• 30ppm crystals => could increase at 60us per second.
• Devices communicate once a second to track each other's
clocks.
• Possibly could be improved by a factor of 100.
• The devices would then need to communicate once every 100
seconds to maintain synchronisation.
• => 900 communications / day with no information transfer
• + perhaps 4 communications on demand
• 99.5% Battery Power wasted
Semiconductors 38
To reduce power consumption, Bluetooth
would
• Undertake Bluetooth inquiry procedure when light switch
operated
• May typically take 10 seconds using Bluetooth 1.1 ?
• Much Better In Bluetooth 1.2
– possibly reduced to tens of ms BUT
– Not all requirements have been adopted yet
Semiconductors 39
Light switch Conclusion
• ZigBee radio using DSSS need only perform CSMA
before transmitting, a delay of only 200 us (Radio
wake up time)
• In the case of a light switch, ZigBee offers longer
battery life and lower latency than a Bluetooth
equivalent.

Solution Prices
ZigBee:
• Price 2003 - $6
• Price 2005 - $1.5-2.5
Bluetooth:
• Price Now - $10
• Price 2005 - $5
Two different solutions optimised for different applications…...
Semiconductors 42
Conclusion
• ZigBee and Bluetooth are two solutions for two application
areas
Semiconductors 43
ZigBee in Building Automation
• Existing solutions are either:
– Power Line Carrier based (PLC)
• Expensive ($15 - $40 BOM)
• Restricted to where there is existing power lines
• No mobility
• Interference from noisy inductance into the system
(adding a fan, etc.)
• Security issues, PLC goes outside the home
• Interoperability is questionable
– Or proprietary
• Interoperability among various manufacturers
• Cost
• Existing RF solutions have limited capabilities
