In this paper, we introduce a new interworking control method of street lights using Zigbee modules. When a street light detects a moving object, the street light informs other street lights that it detected a moving object. A street light turns on for a predetermined time when it detects a moving object or it has received an information of detecting a moving object from other street lights.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of robotic zigbee network as a necessary network to provide an application service of robot in the ubiquitous environment and propose an application scenario using the concept of robot Zigbee network. We have performed experiments on the network connection and data transmission which are basic of proposed an application scenario. Through the result of the experiments, we provide basis for development of robot localization and tracking algorithm which minimizes the localization error using robot Zigbee network in the future.

In Jeju Smart Grid field test, Zigbee technology is being used as one of customer side solutions for AMI. Although Zigbee networks that provides effective connectivity and control among devices are advantages in ease of implementation and use, the data can be exposed to cyber attacks such as eavesdrop, unauthorized data dissemination and forgery. Currently authentication and confidentiality services are provided with the network and link keys generated based on public key pairs that are pre-installed in offline. However, the network is vulnerable once a hacker intrudes into a local network because operation and management policies for the generated keys are not well-established yet. In this paper, the vulnerability of the Zigbee security system in the customer side environment of Jeju Smart Grid field test is analyzed. Then, two-way authentication with the unique identifiers of devices and user-specific group management policies are proposed to resolve the vulnerability.

In a beacon-enabled Zigbee network, the slotted CSMA/CA mechanism based on the super frame structure fairly provides communication chance for each node and makes a reasonable usage of the available energy. In the case of wireless nano sensors that are implanted into the target human body area for detecting disease symptoms or virus, such a nano-network requires a similar type of channel sharing and transmission of short length event-driven data. In this paper, for nano-network's in-body applications, we aim to design conceptually a new super frame derived from the existing beacon-enabled Zigbee MAC protocol. And we analyze the efficiency of the proposed super frame in the aspect of practical deployment.

최근 센서 기술이 발전함에 따라 센서들의 유비쿼터스 환경에서의 활용방법에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 현재 존재하는 센서들 중 Zigbee 센서는 저전력, 초소형 등의 특징을 가지고 센서들이 통신을 하는 센서로써 유지비용과 이동성에 있어서 다른 센서들보다 성능이 우위에 있다. Zigbee 센서는 신호를 Broadcasting하여 다른 Zigbee 센서와 통신을 하게 된다. 이때 이 신호의 세기를 나타내는 RSS와 Triangulation을 통하여 위치를 파악할 수 있다. 그리고 이 결과를 Particle Filter 알고리즘을 통하여 위치추정의 정확도를 높일 수 있다. 또한 유비쿼터스 환경에서의 활용 가능성 파악을 위하여 실제 집 환경의 Testbed를 구축하여 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 멀티 타겟의 위치 추정을 위하여 Zigbee 센서의 Time Cycle 조정을 통하여 Particle Filter 알고리즘을 사용하여 위치 추정 오차를 시뮬레이션으로 성능평가를 하였고 결과를 통하여 멀티 타겟의 경로를 분석하였다.

Zigbee is a universal communication standard used in USN and is utilized in various applications. Zigbee protocol provides an address within a single PAN network, and at this time, it uses DAA. This is a method that divides a 16-bit address area into blocks with a fixed size according to the depth to assign one to each node. However, this method is limited because it has to assign addresses in 16 bits. As the depth increases, the number of nodes also increases exponentially to the maximal number of routers provided to each depth. Therefore, it is difficult to construct a huge network with numerous routers and large depth as in the places which are wide or have many shadow areas. Besides, since all the operations are performed in a single PAN network, it is hard to make several PANs into a single network. This article suggests new addressing and routing methods that can construct several PAN networks into a single network and combine broad area with less limitation in the number of routers and depth by extending the Zigbee-based network. Moreover, this paper has tested its performance and has verified its usability through substantive tests.

In Korea, the dependence on imported energy is very high, and research to reduce standby power is being conducted based on Zigbee, a low-power technology, to reduce wasted power and improve power efficiency. However, because Zigbee is not an IoT standard protocol and is not network-based, it is necessary to build a network with a separate gateway, and research on standby power is insufficient because the standards for international power consumption of devices are ambiguous. Therefore, in this paper, we applied the IoT standard protocol MQTT to the existing Zigbee technology to build a network network without a separate gateway, and designed and implemented a standby power reduction system that collects standby power degradation and user patterns. As a result of evaluating with the existing system, it was confirmed that about 7.11% of standby power was consumed compared to the existing system.

The purpose of this paper was to make a LED light control module using Zigbee. The module was made so that brightness of the LED light changes according to the ambient brightness. A 8-bit microcontroller was used to implement the module to enable LED dimming and wireless light intensity measurement. Using the proposed method, power consumption can be improved by up to 48% on average, with 3.4-0.4W changes in power. The measured ambient light intensity values are converted from analog to digital and outputted as a PWM waveform. According to the output waveform and changes in the current outputted from the LED driver, the brightness of the LED light is controlled. Also, Zigbee with close-range wireless communication capabilities was used to enable wireless transmission of light intensity measurements.
