In this paper, we have measured PRR, RSSI and LQI of ZigBee channels under Wi-Fi environment and have assessed channel characteristic and link quality. To confirm any relationship among RSSI, LQI values and PRR under Wi-Fi interference in overlapping and non-overlapping channels of Wi-Fi and ZigBee, the experiments were performed without Wi-Fi, with Wi-Fi and file download through Wi-Fi. Under Wi-Fi interference, We perfomed experiments to ensure channel characteristics and link quality by fixing Wi-Fi and ZigBee receiver and varying the distance between ZigBee receiver and transmitter. ZigBee transmitter sends packet of 256 bits every second to ZigBee receiver. PRR was measured from ZigBee with variance of distance between fixed Wi-Fi and ZigBee. RSSI, LQI, PRR were measured from ZigBee with fixed Wi-Fi, fixed ZigBee receiver and variance of distance of ZigBee transmitter. As a result, we confirmed decrease of PRR under Wi-Fi interference but RSSI, LQI values similar regardless of overlapped or non-overlapped channel and Wi-Fi interference. Therefore, PRR should be used for interference detection in ZigBee communication under Wi-Fi environment but RSSI and LQI are not appreciate.

ZigBee is a wireless sensor network protocol recognized as a next-generation standard infrastructure for WBAN and Smart Grid. Security plays an important role in several ZigBee applications. Especially, strict membership control should be enforced when the membership is changed during the join and leave operations in ZigBee. In this paper, we investigate the security weakness of the current leave operation in ZigBee and propose a new security scheme to address it as well as its security and performance analysis.

The rapidly growing IoT market is expanding not only in general households but also in smart homes and smart cities. Among the major protocols used in IoT, ZigBee accounts for more than 90% of the smart home's door lock market and is mainly used in miniaturized sensor devices, so the safety of the protocol is very important. However, the device using Zig Bee is not satisfied with the omnidirectional safety because it uses a fixed key during the authentication process that connects to the network, and it has not been resolved in the recently developed ZigBee 3.0. This paper proposes a design method that provides omnidirectional safety to the ZigBee authentication protocol and can be quickly applied to existing protocols. The proposed improved ZigBee authentication protocol analyzed and applied the recently developed OWE protocol to apply ECDH, which has low computational volume and provides omnidirectional safety in IoT. Based on this, it provides the safety of the ZigBee authentication protocol, and it is expected that it will be able to provide user convenience as it does not require a separate certificate or password input.

ZigBee Alliance is a network designed for low-cost and very low-power short-range wireless communications. The ZigBee Alliance is a consortium formed by several leading semiconductor and industrial manufactures, and end users. One of the tasks of this organization is the definition of the networking support and applications profiles that will use IEEE Std 802.15.4-compliant transceivers. In the case of IEEE Std 802.15.4, the ZigBee Alliance is an organization that has led the development of the upper layers, through the definition of application profiles. We have implemented ZigBee home control system, however we have not fully implemented. Because of the ZigBee is not perfectly standarded. We will have to implement according to ZigBee Specifications.

무선 기술이 가지는 장점인 설치의 편리성, 기동성으로 인하여, ZigBee를 이용한 홈 네트워크 서비스 활용성에 대한 기술개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이러한 유비쿼터스 홈 서비스의 활용성에도 불구하고 ZigBee 기반 홈 기기나 센서 정보의 도청, 비정상적인 패킷의 유통, 메시지 재사용등의 데이터 위/변조 문제와 네트워크 전체를 마비시킬 수 있는 서비스 거부 공격등에 쉽게 노출되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 효과적인 대응과 관리 처리를 위하여, 유비쿼터스 홈 네트워크에서의 ZigBee 기술을 사용할 시에 발생할 수 있는 보안 문제점을 해결하기 위한 ZigBee 기반 End-to-End 보안 기술을 개발하였다. 본 기술 개발의 특징은 ZigBee Device, 코디네이터/게이트웨이 영역은 ZigBee 표준 스펙을 구현하였으며, 응용어플리케이션/서버 영역은 표준 스펙이 정의 되어 있지 않으나, 이 부분을 유비쿼터스 홈 네트워크 서비스 관점에서 설계 및 구현하였다. ZigBee 디바이스가 가지는 하드웨어 자원의 빈약성을 고려하여 최대한 보안 기능을 리소스가 풍부한 응용어플리케이션/서버의 자원 활용에 촛점을 맞췄다.

Due to low cost, low-power, and scalability, ZigBee is considered an efficient wireless AMR infrastructure. However, these characteristics of ZigBee can make the devices more vulnerable to unexpected error environments. In this paper, a fault-tolerant wireless AMR network (FWAMR) is proposed, which is designed to improve the robustness of the conventional ZigBee-based AMR systems by coping well with dynamic error environments. The experimental results demonstrate that the FWAMR is considerably fault-tolerant compared with the conventional ZigBee-based AMR network.

The demand for wireless technology in plant structure has recently been increasing due to several advantages such as installation cost reduction, easy placement, easy extension and aesthetic benefits. Among the many wireless technologies, ZigBee is one of the most useful for plant structure; a wireless plant networking system can be configured using ZigBee alone. This research proposes a ZigBee to use for extreme cold region and thereby enable integration of wired and wireless plant monitoring systems. In this study, in order to assess the performance of ZigBee measured data by thermocouple were examined based on the results from laboratory tests between existing ZigBee and developed ZigBee. From the experiment results, performance of developed ZigBee in harsh environment can be increased well.
