  1. Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Wibree:A Comparison of WPAN Technologies John Kooker CSE 237A November 20, 2008

  2. Background

  3. Three Scenarios Watch Building Automation Wireless Stereo Headphones

  4. Side By Side

  5. Side By Side, continued

  6. Watch • Caller ID display for mobile phone • Size • Battery Life • Small amounts of data • 1-to-1 communication • Solution:

  7. Building Automation • Installing lighting control in an existing building • Already wired for power • Mesh network for resilience • Limited data transfer • Solution:

  8. Wireless Stereo Headphones • Listening to uncompressed, stereo audio • 1.4 Mbps • Close range • Recharge every several days • Solution:

  9. Conclusion, and the Future! • ZigBee used to be the clear choice for very low power, low latency, low data rate, mostly asleep devices. • Preliminary designs for Bluetooth Low Energy Technology are just now being released. Bluetooth with integrated Wibree may steal that momentum (in non-mesh networks). • “Coming soon” for 2 years • Bluetooth is growing into a family of specs • 3.0 adds High Speed (UWB)
