ZigBee聯(lián)盟為能量收集設(shè)備開發(fā)Green Power標(biāo)準(zhǔn)

June 29, 2009 -- The ZigBee（R） Alliance, a global ecosystem of companies creating wireless solutions for use in energy management, commercial and consumer applications, today announced development of the ZigBee Green Power feature set to establish a global, standard technology for self-powered devices operating through energy harvesting techniques. These devices will communicate seamlessly with existing ZigBee and ZigBee PRO networks and will enable maintenance free, environmentally friendly products that eliminate the need for wires and batteries to power control devices.

6月29日消息——為能源管理、商業(yè)以及消費(fèi)應(yīng)用創(chuàng)造無線解決方案的性企業(yè)聯(lián)盟 ZigBee聯(lián)盟今日宣布開發(fā)ZigBee Green Power 功能套件，從而為通過能量收集技術(shù)運(yùn)行的自供電設(shè)備確立一種性標(biāo)準(zhǔn)技術(shù)。這些設(shè)備將與現(xiàn)有的 ZigBee 和 ZigBee PRO 網(wǎng)絡(luò)進(jìn)行無縫的通信，并將使環(huán)境友好型的免維護(hù)產(chǎn)品成為可能，動(dòng)力控制設(shè)備不再需要電線和電池。

ZigBee Green Power enables new capabilities available to the ZigBee and ZigBee PRO networks. When the ZigBee Green Power standard is made available to Alliance members at the end of 2009, only ZigBee will offer an established, competitive marketplace for deploying switches, sensors and controllers using harvested energy in residential, commercial and industrial environments. Its energy harvesting capabilities will give manufacturers greater flexibility when designing innovative ZigBee products and solutions. Because ZigBee Green Power will work seamlessly with ZigBee and ZigBee PRO networks, it will enjoy all of ZigBee's numerous strengths, including:

ZigBee Green Power 使新的功能可用于ZigBee 和ZigBee PRO 網(wǎng)絡(luò)。等到2009年年底ZigBee Green Power 標(biāo)準(zhǔn)面向聯(lián)盟會(huì)員推出的時(shí)候，將只有ZigBee 利用收集的能源在住宅、商業(yè)和工業(yè)環(huán)境中配置開關(guān)、傳感器和控制器，提供一個(gè)已經(jīng)建成且具有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力的市場(chǎng)。其能源收集能力將使制造商在設(shè)計(jì)創(chuàng)新型 ZigBee 產(chǎn)品和解決方案時(shí)擁有更大的靈活性。由于ZigBee Green Power 將與ZigBee 和ZigBee PRO 網(wǎng)絡(luò)無缺協(xié)作，所以它將享有 ZigBee 的眾多優(yōu)勢(shì)，其中包括：

-- Physical Radio - Uses popular IEEE 802.15.4 standard radios available from numerous suppliers
-- 2.4 GHz Band - Offers simple global operation vs. country specific radio frequency
-- Interference Avoidance - Demonstrated robust performance in noisy radio frequency environments
-- Robust Mesh Networking - Makes network set-up and maintenance easy, along with large coverage areas, and renowned reliability
-- Security - Takes full advantage of ZigBee's robust security suite
-- Certification - Unbiased, independent certification of ZigBee products
-- Open Standard - Strong, cost competitive environment versus single-vendor solutions

-- 常用的無線電 -- 采用眾多供應(yīng)商都采用的 IEEE 802.15.4 標(biāo)準(zhǔn)無線電
-- 2.4 GHz 頻段 -- 提供簡(jiǎn)單的性操作，而不是特定國(guó)家的無線電頻率
-- 避免干擾 -- 在有雜音的射頻環(huán)境下的可靠表現(xiàn)得到證明
-- 強(qiáng)大的網(wǎng)狀聯(lián)網(wǎng)能力 -- 使網(wǎng)絡(luò)安裝和維護(hù)變?nèi)菀祝⑶揖哂休^大覆蓋面和突出的可靠性
-- 安全 -- 充分利用 ZigBee 可靠的安全套件
-- 認(rèn)證 -- ZigBee 產(chǎn)品無偏見的獨(dú)立認(rèn)證
-- 開放式標(biāo)準(zhǔn) -- 強(qiáng)大而又具有成本效益的環(huán)境，而不是單一廠商的解決方案

"This new enhancement of the ZigBee standard demonstrates how such a dynamic ecosystem can bring innovation to the market", says Frederic Vaillant, vice president, Technology Innovation at Schneider Electric. "Having energy harvesting devices connected seamlessly to standard ZigBee networks will provide our customers with maintenance-free and even more environment-conscious solutions."

施耐德電氣技術(shù)創(chuàng)新副總裁 Frederic Vaillant 表示："ZigBee 標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的這種改進(jìn)顯示了這樣一個(gè)充滿生機(jī)的企業(yè)聯(lián)盟如何能為市場(chǎng)帶來創(chuàng)新。把能收集能源的裝置無缺地連接到標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的 ZigBee 網(wǎng)絡(luò)，為我們的客戶提供免維護(hù)、甚至是更有環(huán)境意識(shí)的解決方案。"

"ZigBee Green Power provides the world with a true standard for control and sensing products that can utilize harvested energy," said Bob Heile, chairman of the ZigBee Alliance. "These maintenance-free devices greatly expand your flexibility when added to comprehensive ZigBee networks already automating or monitoring businesses, homes and industrial environments."

ZigBee 聯(lián)盟主席 Bob Heile 說道："ZigBee Green Power 針對(duì)可以利用收集的能源之控制和傳感產(chǎn)品，為帶來了真正的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。這些免維護(hù)的設(shè)備一旦被添加到已使企業(yè)、家庭和工業(yè)環(huán)境實(shí)現(xiàn)自動(dòng)化并對(duì)其進(jìn)行監(jiān)控的廣泛 ZigBee 網(wǎng)絡(luò)中，將大大拓展您的靈活性。"

This addition of ZigBee Green Power to the ZigBee family significantly expands the options available to manufacturers, and expands the already significant abilities of ZigBee, further strengthening its leadership position as the global standard for wirelessly building automation devices into a single, easy to install and use network. These networks offer superb interference immunity and capabilities to host thousands of devices. With its ultra low-power requirements, ZigBee devices today run on regular batteries for years, eliminating the need for wiring to a power source and offering unparalleled maintenance convenience and installation flexibility.

這次為 ZigBee 系列增添的 ZigBee Green Power 顯著拓展了制造商可用的選擇范圍，并且拓展了已經(jīng)十分重要的 ZigBee 的能力，而 ZigBee 因在易安裝、易使用的單一網(wǎng)絡(luò)配置無線自動(dòng)化設(shè)備所位居的性標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，從而獲得進(jìn)一步的鞏固。這些網(wǎng)絡(luò)提供的抗*力和功能性，可以托管數(shù)千個(gè)設(shè)備。ZigBee 設(shè)備的功耗要求超低，如今已可憑借常用的電池運(yùn)行多年，排除了向電源配線的必要性，并且提供了的維護(hù)便利性和安裝靈活性。
