Things in the IoT(Internet of Things) make various services by exchanging information over networks. The IoT includes many types of WSNs(Wireless Sensor Networks) that consists of spatially distributed wireless sensor nodes and operates with the various purposes with useful technologies such as identification, sensing and communication. Typically, Zigbee network composed of low-cost and lowpower devices is mainly used for wide-area monitoring and remote device control systems. The IoT composed of various WSNs cannot interoperate among networks because of heterogeneous communication protocol and different data representation of each network, but can facilitate interconnection and information exchange among networks via the DDS, which is communication middleware standard that aims to enable real-time, high performance and interoperable data exchanges. In this paper, we proposed design of Zigbee Adaptor for two-way interoperation and data exchange between Zigbee network and other networks in the IoT. Zigbee Adaptor communicates with Zigbee network according to the Zigbee protocol and communicates with external networks via DDS. DDS-based Zigbee Adaptor can facilitate interoperation between a Zigbee network and external networks by systematic cooperation among its components.

The conventional channel selection method for a ZigBee communication network basically detects the energy values in all channels. In the ISM band, no license is required to use channels in this band, so there may exist various interference factors in this band. It is well known that WLAN is the major interference factor degrading the performance of ZigBee in the ISM band. In this paper, we propose an efficient channel selection algorithm which uses the pattern of WLAN channel uses as the a priori information. By using the proposed algorithm, we may save the time required to select channels for the ZigBee communications.

In this paper, we developed a Zigbee module based on CC2520 which is possible to construct the mesh network and also support to Zigbee Pro standard as a preceding research of autonomous moving of mobile robot using Zigbee. After manufacturing the Zigbee module, we selected antenna to fit Zigbee wireless frequency band using network analyze as means performance improvement. We also carry out an impedance matching of Zigbee module, extend the possible distance of two-way wireless communication and ensure the safety of communication.

This paper proposes a method to endow the mobility to the Zigbee protocol which is a short distance wireless communication technology among the standards of wireless sensor networks. The Zigbee has a low price, long life battery, simple structure and connectivity. So it is a suitable standard for the short distance wireless communication of $10m{\sim}70m$. As the Zigbee does not support the mobility, additional factors should be studied to deal adeptly with the diverse change in the real field. By solving the problem that the previous connection and binding table of the Zigbee end device should be reset due to the Zigbee end device address variation when the Zigbee end device moves from the present router to another router, this paper presents the method to communicate without data loss or disconnection.

When ZigBee network supports beacon transmission mechanism, ZigBee devices have the restriction of the transmission range from the coordinator. On the contrary, when it does not support beacon transmission, it is not easy to save the energy through turning into sleep mode. This paper proposes active slot allocation method that allocates a transmission time and does not use the beacon transmission mechanism. It is based on the ZigBee's distributed address assignment mechanism and supports the scalability. This paper explains the active slot structure and the allocation order and describes the operation of ZigBee devices. We verify the proposed mechanism through the simulation and show the performance evaluation. It can be useful on the industrial automation and the environmental surveillance.

This paper describes the implementation of a ZigBee sensor node that can be utilized as a multiband and machine to machine (M2M) communication gateway. The IEEE 802.15.4-2003 standard was used as the wireless network frequency band. Ember's Type EM357 SoC was used as the transmission and reception device to perform the communication function, and it was also used for both the main M2M gateway and the sensor node. For the implementation of the operating protocol, EmberZNet Stack 4.5.4 from the Ember Corporation was used. The measurement of the reception sensitivity in the receiving module and the actual output signal from the reference were obtained from the transmission of a packet, and the packet included the M2M gateway within the attached ZigBee sensor. The packet error rate was measured as 0% with a -98 dBm reception sensitivity at the ZigBee frequency. In addition, excellent current characteristics of the ZigBee modules were shown by the implementation of the low-power circuit.

무선랜 (WLAN)과 지그비 (Zigbee)는 동일한 2.4GHz대의 비면허 주파수 대역(ISM-Band)을 사용하기 때문에 네트워크 간의 주파수 간섭이 발생한다. 더욱이 지그비의 경우 무선랜의 채널과 중첩되지 않는 채널은 단 두 개 채널에 불과하기 때문에 무선랜의 주파수 간섭을 받을 경우 통신 지연 시간의 증가가 불가피 하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 지그비와 무선랜 간의 주파수 간섭으로 인해 발생하는 통신 지연 시간 최소화를 위한 빠른 채널 변경 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이와 더불어 제안 알고리즘의 성능 분석을 위해 모의실험을 수행하였고, 그 결과 제안 알고리즘의 통신 지연 시간이 감소됨을 확인하였다.

최근 무선 통신 기술의 발전으로 무선 매체를 통한 다양한 서비스가 활발해지고 있다. 그 중 블루투스를 기반으로 하는 스마트 폰 어플리케이션 시장이 증가하고 있다. 블루투스는 근거리 무선 네트워킹 기술로서 무선이라는 요소와 빠른 전송속도라는 요소를 갖추고 있다는 장점이 있는 반면, 높은 전력소모와 다채널의 갯수 제한 등과 같은 단점이 존재한다. 이러한 블루투스의 단점을 보완하여 부상되고 있는 것이 지그비(Zigbee) 무선통신기술이다. 지그비는 블루투스나 와이파이 등의 기술보다도 저전력, 저가격, 다채널, 브로드캐스팅, 사용의 용이성을 지원하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 센서와 스마트 폰 사이의 무선통신기술로서 지그비를 이용하여서 근거리 무선 네트워크 시스템을 설계하여서 블루투스에 비해 낮은 전력소모와 다채널의 지원을 이용하여 다수의 다양한 센서를 스마트 폰과 근거리에서 실시간으로 무선 네트워크를 제어할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다.
