An improved routing algorithm of Zigbee wireless sensor network for smart home system

Smart home is a networked intelligent living environment which employs a house as the platform to integrate automatic control system, computer network system and communication technology all-in-one. In order to avoid the constraints of cabling, moving and aesthetics in the traditional smart home system using wired network, a design of smart home network based on Zigbee wireless sensor network technology is demonstrated in this paper. An improved routing algorithm combining Cluster-Tree and AODVjr is proposed for Zigbee wireless network. Therefore a more convenient and reliable wireless communication environment is achieved in the smart home system.
