The thesis work is based on theoretical research and comparative analysis of the most remarkable short range wireless technologies as Bluetooth and ZigBee standards.
Nowadays two competitive technical standards approached a strategic aim. They both integrated customer’s technical needs to have reliable, secure, low consumption and low cost technologies for controlling and monitoring applications with low data rate communication. Both technologies can be applied to serve a big variety of customer’s needs and can be used in industrial sphere activity as well as individual.
Implementing the effective low energy consumption approach, devices demonstrate their operation on a single battery without charging for more then a year. They are almost similar to each other in the way of providing low power consumption. What technology provides the best lowest power consumption, Bluetooth or ZigBee? There is no certain answer. Consumers have to be more specific in technical aspects when they choose an appropriate technology. And understanding of the technical design would help to figure out which one of the technologies fits better for a wireless network area. In the near future, the current Bluetooth Low Energy standard will be the most needed as a standard is allowing both single and dual modes. This is an intermediate technology placed to support classic and new standard wireless devices in short-range wireless network.
