Study pada ZigBee Protocol

Abstract

Nowadays, Technology is growing rapidly, the one of example of technology, helps the human being to fulfill their
need of information. The development of information technology and communication make the data  faster and also
make the updating data easier for example protocols. The used of information and communication technology that is
simple, automatic, low rate data and the lasting power has become imperative in accordance  with technological
developments. In the field of wireless networking technology networks currently well addressed for this include Zigbee
protocol. The technology in the specified ZigBee aimed at them. ZigBee is a specification for high-level communication
protocol package that uses a small amount of low-power digital radios based on, the IEEE 802.15.4 standard for
wireless personal area networks (WPANs). In this paper we discuss further on what and how Zigbee  is, how the
relationship the IEEE and Zigbee are, who uses of Zigbee, how history of Zigbee is. What the hardware and software
on Zigbee are, how it work as well as the type of Zigbee does. What the types of applications that use Zegbee are and
how usability Zigbe in general and home applications is.

Keywords: Wireless Personal Area networks (WPAN)s, IEEE, Zigbee.
