Wireless sensor network devotes to improving energy efficient and reducing energy costs.We have to monitor in building for 24hours not to incur expansive energy costs in case of problem about a thermostat of buildings or logistics warehouse. It is to incur serious problems of safety of keeping products and a waste of energy. In this paper, establishes a logistics warehouses system based by Zigbee technology to solve that problem.

A building energy-saving have been increased worldwide interest. There is continuing research on IT technology for efficient management of BEMS. Recently, It is able to control of LED and to maximize energy savings to the development of LED lighting technology.

Since sensor nodes have restriction of using resources in Zigbee network, number of study on improving efficiency is currently ongoing[1]. Clustering mechanism based on hierarchy structure provides a prevention of duplicated information and a facility of a network expansion[2]. however overheads can occurs when the cluster header is elected and the election of a incorrect cluster header causes to use resources inefficiently. In this paper, we propose that the cluster header election mechanism using distances between nodes and density of nodes in accordance with the operation of the central processing system in which the sync nodes are having information of location and energy with respect to general nodes based on hierachy clustering mechanism.

Recently there are some trends to construct smart home system infrastructure depending upon the development of Information and Communication Technology. Also requirements of the Ubiquitous Healthcare Systems at home which can monitor the status of health continuously are increased rapidly comparing with hospitals. Healthcare service can be divided into two categories. The first one is Alarm Service that can be used for the emergency status and the other one is Remote Support Service which can monitor the patient including home environments and give those diagnosis information to medical office or to his family. Generally wired networks and fixed healthcare measuring system have some limits to transmit reliable realtime based information for both categories described above comparing with portable monitoring system. Getting over the inefficiency we will design and implement portable healthcare system under the wireless Zigbee network environments.

Smart Multiple-Tap to be introduced in this paper, is an electronic device that controls the Multibple-Tap through the Smartphone. It runs on network and has an inbuilt Zigbee communication module. Thus, users can control home devices from remote through home server. Mentioned home server is operated as a gateway and is connected with smart devices on the Internet. To sum up, Users using this Smart Multiple-Tap can check the state information of the multi-tap ON/OFF and can control immediately by smartphone. also, Smart Multiple-Tap perfectly shut down the standby power. when users turn off each of the Smart Multiple-Tap's circle, It drives automatically lowest electricity-consuming mode and shut down the standby power by its own built-in SSR module. therefore, it will bring the energy saving effect on environment using Smart Multiple-Tap.

This paper proposes a new indoor location recognition system using a ZigBee network and a global positioning system(GPS). The proposed location recognition system applies GPS values that are mainly used for outdoor location recognition, to indoor location recognition; hence the techniques conventionally separated for the indoor and outdoor location recognition are integrated into one location recognition technique. The proposed system recognizes a location using the distance between nodes. Although the distance between nodes can be calculated by measuring the strength of the received ZigBee signals, generally the measured distance is not accurate and has high error rates since the strength of the ZigBee signals is different depending on the distance. In order to reduce the error rate, we have subdivided the output power of the received ZigBee signals into five levels. When a moving node generates a signal, each fixed node transmits the received signal strength and its own GPS information to other nodes, so the moving node can find its own accurate location in terms of the received signals.

Security is critically important for smart grid networks that are usually used for the electric power network and IT environments that are opened to attacks, such as, eavesdropping, replay attacks of abnormal messages, forgery of the messages to name a few. ZigBee has emerged as a strong contender for smart grid networks. ZigBee is used for low data rate and low power wireless network applications. To deploy smart grid networks, the collected information requires protection from an adversary over the network in many cases. The security mechanism should be provided for collecting the information over the network. However, the ZigBee protocol has some security weaknesses. In this paper, these weaknesses are discussed and a method to improve security aspect of the ZigBee protocol is presented along with a comparison of the message complexity of the proposed security protocol with that of the current ZigBee protocol.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has a significant attraction throughout various industry sites, along with the development of wireless communication technologies. The typical applications of RFID include medical, logistics, and distribution, and, specially, it is effectively applied to non-contact environments, because it employs radio waves. Although, recently, construction cases of the RFID management systems for the inventory management of the construction materials have been increased, the related researches and experiments for the reused materials are not actively performed. In this paper, we propose the RFID system with the localization function for effectively managing the reuse of the construction materials, adding to the conventional inventory management system. The proposed system consists of a RFID reader unit and a receiver unit, and the location information of the material with the attached RFID tag is obtained by estimating the position of a RFID reader. The distance value for estimating the reader position is calculated using the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) value of Zigbee, and the performance evaluation of the proposed system is performed in the indoor space of $5m{\times}5m$.

As an aged population has increased in Korea, the number of patients with chronic disease has soared up as well. The rapid increase of the chronic disease triggers a need of new paradigm of healthcare. In terms of data transmission of healthcare system, a use of data-transmission protocol based on bluetooth could be dismal in application of healthcare due to its postponement of connection. On the contrary, WPAN is evaluated to be proper to support the application of healthcare in restricted geographic areas. In addition, the bluetooth, a base of the current wireless network, doesn't support a special mechanism to cope up with emergent patients because of its delayed connection among devices. Against this backdrop, this study aims to design an integrated interface of multi bio-sensing and suggest a measuring and monitering system for the patients with chronic illnesses by using Zigbee of WPAN as a sufficient bandwidth is anticipated owing to frequent deliveries of complicated biological signals.

In this paper, we study the design and implementation of an auto recognition system by using wireless sensor node. RFID system has a limited communication range and communication network is damaged, it is impossible to communicate. Therefore, easy installation and low cost wireless system are required in an area where the installation of communication between RFID system and monitoring system is difficult, or a portable RFID system is installed. The auto recognition system in this study is implemented by the combination of 13.56MHz RFID system using MLX12115 RFID chip of Melexis company and wireless sensor node system using CC2420 Zigbee chip of Chipcon company. As a result, we develop an auto recognition system which makes it possible to get tag's information wirelessly. Also, it has a simple circuit structure and is small in size.
