www .aerocomm.com T HEORY OF O PERATION 5 IEEE 802.15.4 & ZI GBEE OVERVIEW The ZB2430 uses the ZigBee protocol stack, a netw ork layer protocol which uses small, l ow power digital transceivers based on the IEEE 802.15.4 hardware standard. The 802.15.4 standar d is a specification for a cost-effective, low data rate (<250 kbps), 2.4 GHz or 8[...]

THEORY OF OPERATION 12 CREATING A NETWORK The IEEE 802.15.4 MAC provides support for two wireless network top ologies: star and mesh. The management of these networks is performed by the ZigBee layer. All device s, r egardless of topology, participate in t he network using their unique 16-bit address a ssigned by the Coordinator. Mesh The mesh topo[...]
