Let Us Talk Something Different Between ZigBee And Bluetooth
Various wireless smart home comparative analysis,which one is best technology in Smart Home System ?
Introduction and compare of the commonly used smart home technology.
Though there have been conception of smart home long time before and market demands are always there, Application of smart home has’t been widely spread due to the limited development with related technology. Here are some existing smart home technologies in the market:
Bluetooth: One kind of radio engineering supporting communication between devices in short distance. It can be used for wireless message exchange between many devices such as mobile phone, PDA, wireless earphone, laptop and related external equipment etc. However, its communication distance is too short while its communication method is point to point, which can hardly meet the demands of smart home. Moreover, Bluetooth has promoted 4.0 standard featured with low power consumption, and its communication distance can reach as far as that of 2.4G wireless signal. However, its disadvantage is as obvious as still, for example, still unsatisfied performance on safety, group of networking, anti-interference, and even worse, it has’t function of networking self-healing. Secret leakage always happen to Bluetooth . New standard on scale for group of networking can’t be over 300 units, meanwhile, Bluetooth is easy to be interfered.
ZigBee: The basis of ZigBee is IEEE802.15. As IEEE can just deal with low grade protocols of MAC level and physical layer, ZigBee alliance has expanded IEEE to standardize its network layer protocol and API. ZigBee is one kind of emerging wireless network technology with short range, low speed rate and power consumption, which can be mainly used for wireless connection within short range.
It embraces features with low complexity, low power consumption, low cost, low speed rate, self-networking, high reliability and security. It is suitable for areas of automatic control and remote control etc, which can be embedded with various devices. In short, ZigBee is such kind of wireless communication technology featured with cheap, low power, self-networking.

Wireless standards
Exceptional changes are underway in the home networking market and a wide range of home systems. Everything from thermostats, light switches, door locks and smoke detectors will become networked. Born from a collective desire to better control our environment and cut our energy consumption, this shift is widely predicted to bring significant market growth opportunities. In the UK, over £2.4 billion is expected to be spent on home energy management devices. However, such devices will have to work with existing home networks and interoperability between devices from different manufacturers is essential for commercial success.
According to IMS Research, over 600-million households worldwide have home networks installed with computers, media players, smart TV’s, printers, network-attached storage (NAS), internet gateways and a growing number of accessories such as mice, headsets and keyboards. Like the home computing networks they join, which are standardized on WiFi, Ethernet and USB, these new home-automation, energy management, care and security (HAECS) networks must standardize to adopt an interoperable technology that gives whole home coverage and long battery life. Furthermore, this standard must be reliable, secure, scalable and simple to set up.Digital Enhanced Cordless .
After 10 years and millions of implementations every year, ZigBee standards prove you can rely on the widest variety of smart and easy-to-use products for just about anywhere you work, live or play.

'Smart Homes' Could Be Hacked If Not Choose Wisely:
Do you want your house to be haunted by a complete stranger?
“I can see all of the devices in your home and I think I can control them,” a complete stranger said to Thomas Hatley who lives in Oregon and had been awoken with an early phone call on a Thursday morning.
He and his wife were still in bed. Expressing surprise, he asked this stranger to try to turn the master bedroom lights on and off. Seconds later, not only lights, but also television came on. “I’ll be darned”, Mr. Hatley said in the phone.
This is not a fabricated story, but a true report on Forbes Tech.
The home automation market was worth $1.5 billion in 2012 according to Reuters; there’s been an explosion in products that promise to make our homes “smarter.” Many of these products have smart phone apps and Web portals that let users operate devices, cameras, and locks from afar. The function sounds really amazing, and so many people embrace this new lifestyle without thorough consideration and cautious selection. Here’s problem: as we bring the things in our homes onto the Internet, we run into the same kind of security concerns we have for any connected device: they could get hacked!
To prevent being hacked, you need to pay attention to more than function. All functions provided by different brands are similar, remote monitor, remote control and automation. However, technologies of networking behind functions are so much distinct. It could be as simple as Bluetooth, radio frequency and Wi-Fi, or be more advanced one such as Zwave and ZigBee.
Contrary to lots of smart home brands who were exposed to have hacking problem, Wulian receives zero report of hacking issue. From the very beginning, Wulian sets network safety as its priority. Smart home function only makes sense after safety is guaranteed. Otherwise, how could people feel relieved to let an automation system take over their houses?
Googling a very simple phrase led me to a list of “smart homes” that had done something rather stupid. The homes all have an automation system from Insteon that allows remote control of their lights, hot tubs, fans, televisions, water pumps, garage doors, cameras, and other devices, so that their owners can turn these things on and off with a smart phone app or via the Web. The dumb thing? Their systems had been made crawl-able by search engines – meaning they show up in search results — and due to Insteon not requiring user names and passwords by default in a now-discontinued product, a stranger was able to click on the links, giving me the ability to turn these people’s homes into haunted houses, energy-consumption nightmares, or even robbery targets. Opening a garage door could make a house ripe for actual physical intrusion.
The ZigBee technology is a perfectly suitable choice for developing smart home. Its strict encryption is born for resisting hacking. Wulian is an advanced member of ZigBee Global Alliance and participates in the establishment of home automation industry standard. From network reliability to the safety of user data on server, Wulian has all considered thoughtfully.
