  7. 802.15.4 Architecture Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  8. IEEE 802.15.4PHY Overview Paul Gorday Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  9. IEEE 802.15.4 PHY Overview Operating Frequency Bands 868MHz/ 915MHz PHY Channels 1-10 Channel 0 2 MHz 868.3 MHz 902 MHz 928 MHz 2.4 GHz PHY Channels 11-26 5 MHz 2.4 GHz 2.4835 GHz Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  10. IEEE 802.15.4 PHY Overview Packet Structure (Both PHY’s) • PHY Packet Fields • Preamble (32 bits) – synchronization • Start of Packet Delimiter (8 bits) – specifies one of 3 packet types • PHY Header (8 bits) – Sync Burst flag, PSDU length • PSDU (0 to 127 bytes) – Data field Start of Packet Delimiter PHY Header PHY Service Data Unit (PSDU) Preamble 6 Bytes 0-127 Bytes Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  11. IEEE 802.15.4 PHY Overview Modulation/Spreading • 2.4 GHz PHY • 250 kbps (4 bits/symbol, 62.5 kBaud) • Data modulation is 16-ary orthogonal modulation • 16 symbols are ~orthogonal set of 32-chip PN codes • Chip modulation is MSK at 2.0 Mchips/s • 868MHz/915MHz PHY • 20 kbps (1 bit/symbol, 20 kBaud) • Data modulation is BPSK with differential encoding • Spreading code is a 15-chip m-sequence • Chip modulation is BPSK at 0.3 Mchips/s Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  12.

  17. Device Classes • Full function device (FFD) • Any topology • Network coordinator capable • Talks to any other device • Reduced function device (RFD) • Limited to star topology • Cannot become a network coordinator • Talks only to a network coordinator • Very simple implementation Paul Gorday, Jose A.

  22. Device Addressing • All devices have IEEE addresses • Short addresses can be allocated • Addressing modes: • Network + device identifier (star) • Source/destination identifier (peer-peer) • Source/destination cluster tree + device identifier (cluster tree) Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  23. General Data Packet Structure Preamble sequence Start of Packet Delimiter PRE SPD LEN PC ADDRESSING DSN Link Layer PDU CRC CRC-16 Data sequence number Addresses according to specified mode Flags specify addressing mode Length for decoding simplicity Paul Gorday, Jose A.

Optional Frame Structure 15ms * 2n where 0  n  14 Network beacon Transmitted by network coordinator. Contains network information, frame structure and notification of pending node messages. Beacon extension period Space reserved for beacon growth due to pending node messages Contention period Access by any node using CSMA-CA Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson

  25. Traffic Types • Periodic data • Application defined rate (e.g. sensors) • Intermittent data • Application/external stimulus defined rate (e.g. light switch) • Repetitive low latency data • Allocation of time slots (e.g. mouse) Paul Gorday, Jose A. Gutierrez and Phil Jamieson
