基于ZigBee协议的工业无线网关的设计

Design of the Industrial Wireless Gateway Based on ZigBee Protocol

针对无线网关易组网、低功耗、低成本的要求,提出了一种基于ZigBee无线协议的无线网关的设计方法。给出了无线网关的软硬件设计,并通过原型机的可靠运行测试,验证了该方法的可行性。测试结果表明,对比于传统网关功能单一、智能化程度低以及通用性差等缺点,该无线网关使数据包的稳定性更好、功耗更低;同时,Mesh网络的支持使网关的智能性大大增强。

Due to the requirements to the wireless gateway, such as easy networking, low power consumption and low cost, the design method of the wireless gateway based on ZigBee wireless protocol is proposed. The software and hardware design for wireless gateway is given, and through the reliable operation test of prototype, the feasibility of this method is verified. The test result shows that comparing with the traditional gateway that features sole function, low intelligence, and poor commonality, etc. , the wireless gateway offers better stability for the data packet and lower power consumption ; meanwhile, the support of Mesh network enhances the intelligence of the gateway greatly.
