Communications Toolbox Library for the ZigBee Protocol

Model and simulate communication in a ZigBee network

ZigBee^® is a low-rate wireless personal area network (LRWPAN) standard that is used in a wide range of applications such as sensor networks, home automation, industrial automation, health monitoring, and the Internet of Things (IoT). ZigBee uses the IEEE^® 802.15.4 PHY and MAC specification. Other LRWPAN standards such as 6LoWPAN, WirelessHART and MiWi also use the IEEE 802.15.4 PHY and MAC.

The Communications Toolbox™ Library for the ZigBee Protocol provides end-to-end simulation of the entire communications stack (PHY, MAC, NET, APP). With this library, you can simulate the following:

PHY layer examples:
- Waveform generation and decoding for the original IEEE 802.15.4 specification and IEEE 802.15.4b/c/d
- Practical signal recovery for IEEE 802.15.4 OQPSK signals at 2.4 GHz
MAC layer examples:
- Generate and decode IEEE 802.15.4 MAC frames
- Simulate the asynchronous CSMA IEEE 802.15.4 MAC
NET layer examples:
- Generate and decode data frames of the ZigBee NET layer
APP layer examples:
- Generate and decode frames of the Application Support Sublayer
- Generate and decode the header of ZigBee Cluster Library (ZCL) frames
- Generate and decode frames for the ZigBee Home Automation, Light Link, and Smart Energy application profiles
