At the ZigBee meeting in Berlin Nanotron Technologies demonstrated the first evaluation boards for its new wireless network Nanonet. Numerous visitors took the chance to see a live demonstration which showed the full functionality of the transceiver as well as the high robustness of the wireless link. The evaluation board and first samples of the Nanonet TRX transceiver will be available in the first quarter of 2004.
Nanonet works in the globally licence-free ISM band at 2.4GHz and allows a very robust data transmission with extremely low power consumption.
With an output power of only 900nW, Nanonet was able to transmit 1Mbit/s over a distance of 6m (with a bit error rate of 0.1% and no forward error correction).
Therefore, the underlying transmission system CSS (chirp spread spectrum) is an ideal choice for mobile battery-driven ZigBee applications.
"The big hype around Nanonet here at this conference proves that Nanotron Technologies has developed the ideal wireless transmission system for the most promising growth markets of the future", says Nanotron's CEO Helmut Adamski.
According to market studies from the ZigBee alliance, three billion ZigBee-compatible devices will be sold in 2007, for example for applications in the fields of home control and industrial automation.
