Zigbee is a wireless communication protocol suitable for applications such as Wireless Sensor Networks. It achieves low power due to low datarate and smaller range. Zigbee is being used in applications such as home automation, smart metering, m-commerce, and so on. The short course included a theoretical overview of Zigbee protocol stack and its implementation on TI platform. There was also a demonstration of sample applications and hands-on practice on platforms such as MSP430F5438 and CC253x. |
