7. Managing End Devices
ZigBee end devices are intended to be battery-powered devices capable of sleeping for extended periods of time. Since
end devices may not be awake to receive RF data at a given time, routers and coordinators are equipped with additional
capabilities (including packet buffering and extended transmission timeouts) to ensure reliable data delivery to end
devices.
End Device Operation
Parent Operation
When an end device joins a ZigBee network, it must find a router or coordinator device that is allowing end devices
to join. Once the end device joins a network, a parent-child relationship is formed between the end device and the
router or coordinator that allowed it to join. See chapter 3 for details.
When the end device is awake, it sends poll request messages to its parent. When the parent receives a poll request,
it checks a packet queue to see if it has any buffered messages for the end device. It then sends a MAC layer
acknowledgment back to the end device that indicates if it has data to send to the end device or not.
If the end device receives the acknowledgment and finds that the parent has no data for it, the end device can
return to idle mode or sleep. Otherwise, it will remain awake to receive the data. This polling mechanism allows the
end device to enter idle mode and turn its receiver off when RF data is not expected in order to reduce current
consumption and conserve battery life.
The end device can only send data directly to its parent. If an end device must send a broadcast or a unicast
transmission to other devices in the network, it sends the message directly to its parent and the parent performs
any necessary route or address discoveries to route the packet to the final destination.
Each router or coordinator maintains a child table that contains the addresses of its end device children. A router or
coordinator that has unused entries in its child table is said to have end device capacity, or the ability to allow new
end devices to join. If the child table is completely filled (such that the number of its end device children matches
the number of child table entries), the device cannot allow any more end devices to join to it.
Since the end device children are not guaranteed to be awake at a given time, the parent is responsible for
managing incoming data packets in behalf of its end device children. If a parent receives an RF data transmission
destined for one of its end device children, and if the parent has enough unused buffer space, it will buffer the
packet. The data packet will remain buffered until a timeout expires, or until the end device sends a poll request to
retrieve the data.
