Report on Arduino Controller Zigbee


Communication
1. Introduction The rapid advancement of wireless communication has
paved the way for various protocols, among which Zigbee stands out due
to its low power consumption, cost-effectiveness, and suitability for short-
range communication. Arduino controllers, when integrated with Zigbee
modules, offer efficient wireless communication solutions for various
applications, including home automation, industrial monitoring, and IoT-
based projects.
2. Overview of Zigbee Communication Zigbee is a wireless
communication protocol based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, designed
for low-power, low-data-rate applications. It operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM
band and supports mesh networking, making it robust and scalable for
various applications. The key features of Zigbee include:
 Low power consumption
 Secure and reliable communication
 Support for multiple network topologies (star, tree, and mesh)
 Data rates of 250 kbps
3. Arduino and Zigbee Integration Arduino microcontrollers can be
easily interfaced with Zigbee modules such as the ZigBee series to
establish wireless communication. The integration process involves the
following steps:
3.1 Required Components:
 Arduino board (e.g., Arduino Uno, Mega, or Nano)
 ZigBee modules (Series 1 or Series 2)
 ZigBee Shield or breakout board
 Jumper wires
 Power supply
3.2 Hardware Connection:
1. Connect the ZigBee module to the Arduino board using an ZigBee
shield or a breakout board.

2. Establish communication using serial ports (Tx and Rx pins) or


through a software serial library.
3. Ensure proper power connections (3.3V for ZigBee modules).
3.3 Software Configuration:
1. Configure the ZigBee modules using XCTU software.
2. Set up the communication mode (Coordinator, Router, or End
Device).
3. Write an Arduino sketch using the Software Serial library to handle
Zigbee communication.
4. Implementation Example A simple example involves wireless
communication between two Arduino boards using ZigBee modules.
4.1 Transmitting Data:
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
Software Serial ZigBee (2, 3); // RX, TX
void setup() {
Serial. Begin(9600);
ZigBee.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
ZigBee.println("Hello from Arduino");
delay(1000);
}
4.2 Receiving Data:
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial ZigBee (2, 3); // RX, TX
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
ZigBee.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
if (ZigBee.available()) {
Serial. Write(ZigBee.read());
}
