MAC LAYER

Device Classes Full function device (FFD)

Can talk to any device.

Reduced function device (RFD) Cannot talk to all the devices.

Address All devices must have 64 bit IEEE addresses Short (16 bit) addresses can be allocated to reduce

packet size

DEVICES

• Zigbee Coordinator (ZC):• it is the root of the network tree • acts as a bridge to other networks.

• Zigbee Router (ZR):• acts as an intermediate router.

• Zigbee End Devices (ZED):• functionality to talk to the parent node.• cannot relay data from other devices • allows the node to be asleep . 

MAC LAYER

Transmission Mode

Beacon enable mode Periodic data Repetitive low latency data using.

Non-Beacon enable mode Intermittent data using.
