Abstract

ZigBee is the new standard that has been developed for low cost, low data rate and low power consumption wireless network. This paper provides a brief description of ZigBee network topologies including star, mesh, and cluster tree and introduces ZigBee routing protocols such as AODV, AODVjr, Cluster- tree and integrated routing algorithm. The mesh network uses the integrated routing method combined with AODV and Hierarchical/Tree routing. The tree network uses a Hierarchical/Tree Routing mechanism. Protocol analysis focuses on several issues: routing mechanism, cost and maintenance, and so on. Routing mechanism includes the configuration of tree addresses and tree addressing routing. And route cost gives how to compute cost metric during route discovery and maintenance.
