Why ZigBee?

Compared to other proximity radio technologies, like RFID, NFC, contact less Bluetooth

the main key-values driving us to ZigBee choice are:

Disappeared point-to-point tag-reader concept, no more limitations to star topologies (thousands of nodes)Pervasive Ad-hoc Self-organizing Mesh Networks

Configurable Radio Range: based on service requirements, from contactless (~cm) to meters and even kilometers, using multi-hop

High Security Level (encryption and authentication at all protocol layers, concept of trust center, no collisions)

Easy integration in apppliance/terminals in miniaturized peripherals with integrated antenna

ZigBee Gateway in the Handset Gateway on user terminals enables:

easy connection of ZigBee networks (PAN) with the operator traditional network infrastructure and information technology

HW/SW resources optimization (power, CPU)

Mobile terminal as a gateway to collect and display information

In a mobile phone the SIM, the personal token, with Zigbee node can play the Gateway role

What’s Z-SIM?

ZigBee node fully integrated in a SIM card (Antenna + RF + Processing)

• User centric approach• The SIM has all the user information in terms of profiling, service

personalization, credit

• SIM is the Key-element for security, trusted environment (user authentication, content protection)

• Gateway on SIM guarantees the permanent connection between Service Center and Ad hoc network for gathering info and reconfiguration

A SIM usable in all mobile terminals

• Mobile terminal independency (no changes needed in the mobile terminal, like for BT, NFC)

• ZSIM is independent from terminal tiers

• Not invasive technology: transparent to the user

Enabler for a multitude of innovative services

• Interaction with objects (Internet of Things)

• M-commerce: payments and ticketing

• Accelerating fixed and mobile convergence

Z-SIM Technological Challenges

Limited dimensions, in terms of area and thickness

The SIM position in the handset (between battery and terminal main board) requires an optimized antenna designed to avoid reducing radio signal and limiting the radio range

IEEE 802.15.4 coexistence with other radio technologies (e.g. WiFi, BT)

STEP 2: Data Exchange via ZigBee

The decoder sends the code event to the Z-SIM, asking to buy the

selected event

STEP 3:Transaction with SMSThe mobile phone with SIMTOOLKIT application initiates the transaction

Step 4: Unblock decoderThe Pay TV provider unblocks the user smart-card and releases the event

Step 3:

The users with SIMTOOLKIT application buy the content. The operator manages the bill

transaction and download the token to the SIM for enabling the access to the cinema

Conclusions

Z-SIM enables plug-and-play, reliable and trusted interaction between user and objects

Z-SIM and ZigBee growth offer a great opportunity to improve the quality of our life

Many open points

We have to work all together to create a complete ZigBee ecosystem

Telecom Italia is ready to connect its customers to this ecosystem… and you?
