Abstract

ZigBee standard is a developing low-cost, low power consumption, short-distance wireless communication standard and routing algorithm improvement plays an important part in updating the protocol. Based on the analysis of existed ZigBee routing algorithm, this paper proposes an improvement by comprehensive using of Cluster-Tree algorithm and the "piggyback" technology to increase effective load capacity of the network, and run the simulation in NS-2, verified its feasibility. Simulation results show that the improved algorithm does not affect the other properties and reduces the number of routing control packets, so the effective load capacity has been improved.
