Proven excellent in-building coverage Inherently robust radio link Mesh networking Acknowledge oriented protocol Now proven in major deployments in Australia, Sweden, & USA Proven tolerance to interference Trade shows like CES-works when WiFi and Bluetooth fail Montage Hotels and MGM City Center deployments Products which implement multiple radio technologies Proven coexistence Many multi-radio products and multi-radio deployments Proven scalability City Center at 70,000 plus radios Montage Hotels at 4000 plus radios per property ZigBee Technology-Performance
ZigBee Platform Interoperability Ensures Network interoperability but does not imply application layer interoperability There are multiple Compliant Platforms to choose from Medium Access (MAC) Physical Radio (PHY) Application ZDO SSP App Support (APS) { NWK ZigBee Compliant Platform
ZigBee Product Interoperability Products with the same application profiles interoperate end to end ZigBee has published a set of Public Application Profiles ensuring end product interoperability { ZigBee Compliant Product

”ZigBee City”This is how it works ZigBee in Europe Tomas Arnewid – Project Manager
Göteborg: ”The ZigBee City” 500 000 Citizens 260 000 meters < 63 A 42 000 meters indoors 180 000 in metering-rooms + Rural area including 15 000 metering points
Building the ZigBee NAN Concentrators Meters Repeaters
Facts and Figures 255 000 Meters (electrical) out of 260 000 installed App. 8000 Concentrators App. 7000…17 repeaters actually used 9 jumps identified, can do 18, have set limit to 10 Infrastructure built to handle 1,1 million meters 3000 GPRS meters >99% within 24 hours, close to 100% 5 days Remote disconnect in use Planning to add district heating, gas and water metering in our infrastructure
-Next Steps • Immediate Focus: • Power Quality and Failure alarms – Smart Grid foundation • Multimetering – Gas, District Heating, Water • Advanced Meter Management - implementation of processes • New Services (among others) • Individual metering (heat, water) • Security Alarm • ZigBee locks • Control of street lamps

Why a ZigBee IP stack? • The United States Congress suggested it in relation to Stimulus Funding access and US utilities are now requiring it as part of their future networks. • What will most likely be in it? • MAC – 15.4 2006 with MAC security • 6lowPAN packet format and fragmentation • ROLL routing • Plus other features essential to effective sensor networks 28
Why ZigBee+Power Line Carrier? Simplified installation for new smart energy applications in large apartment or commercial buildings with no other control networks Further expansion of the Home Area Network market by enhancing the ease of use and commercial viability of Smart Energy Advent of PHEVs in 2010 requires energy management system to address technical and business problems related to charging/discharging, billing, and access management. Common system architecture and application profile interface for home energy devices independent of networking technology 29
