50.1 Introduction
ZigBee is a suite of very low-cost and low-power, low data rate, and short-range digital radios based on the
IEEE 802.15.4-2006 standard for low-rate wireless personal area networks (LR-WPANs). e ZigBee tech-
nology was initially aimed at radio-frequency (RF) applications, with the idea of producing protocol that is
simpler and more cost-eective than those of comparative WPANs such as ubiquitous 802.15.1 (Bluetooth).
