Abstract :
Wireless communications are being applied in a wide range of scenarios. This paper explores the use of ZigBee to implement a master/multi-slave protocol (FTT-L) supporting a localization system. This protocol as well as its implementation are described throughout the paper and an assessment of several key parameters is conducted. Results are used to derive the delay of a localization round, which is validated experimentally.
