ZigBee Measurement Suite

ZigBee is the only standards-based wireless technology designed to address the unique needs of low-cost, low-power wireless sensor and control networks in just about any market. ZigBee technology builds on IEEE standard 802.15.4 which defines the physical and MAC layers. MAXEYE Technologies provides the signal generation and analysis tools using National Instruments Vector Signal Generators/Analyzers or Vector Signal Transceiver to test the physical layer and RF front wnd of the ZigBee devices.

MaxEye ZigBee Measurement Suite

The ZigBee measurement suite supports generating and analyzing the signal as per the IEEE 802.15.4 standard MAC and PHY protocol.

i. OQPSK Physical Layer (2.4 GHz)
ii. BPSK Physical Layer (868/915 MHz)

The standard defines different modulation types, data rates based on the frequency band.

Band	Frequency Range (MHz)	Modulation Type	Chip Rate (Kchips/sec)	Data Rate (Kbits/sec)	Pulse shaping Filter Type
2.4 GHz	2400 to 2483	OQPSK	2000	250	Half Sine Wave Filter
868 MHz	868 to 868.6	BPSK	300	20	Raised Cosine
915 MHz	902 to 928	BPSK	600	40	Raised Cosine

This toolkit is used to test, measure and analyze the performance of ZigBee devices operating in the 2450/915/868 MHz band. The design validation and verification stage of development requires more intensive analysis tools such as constellation plot to debug various issues in product design. The production test requires more definitive measurements such as EVM and Frequency Offset so you can compare performance to test limits.
