Coexistence of IEEE802.15.4 with other Systems in the 2.4 GHz-ISM-Band

Considerations for using ZigBee technology in vehicular non-critical applications

“…As showed by the authors in [1], packet error rate is more than 90% when severe interference occurs. An answer to the last question put above is partly given by the authors of [2], who present the effect of different orientations of IEEE 802.11n transmission on IEEE 802.15.4 devices.…”

An empirical performance study of Intra-vehicular Wireless Sensor Networks under WiFi and Bluetooth interference

“…Shuaib et al performed some experiments to study the performance degradation of a ZigBee wireless sensor network, Bluetooth, and WiFi devices, when they co-exist in an office environment [7]. Sikora and Groza reported experimental results on ZigBee performance under interference from WiFi (802.11b only), Bluetooth, and a microwave oven [8].…”

Interference Mitigation in IEEE 802.15.4-A Cluster Based Scheduling Approach

“…According to (Petrova et al, 2006;Howitt and Gutierrez, 2003;Sikora and Groza, 2005) IEEE 802.15.4 has a little impact on the IEEE 802.11 performance. However, IEEE 802.11 can have a serious impact on the IEEE 802.15.4 performance if the channel allocation is not carefully taken into account (Petrova et al, 2006;Shin et al, 2005b).…”

“…In (Shin et al, 2005b), the Packet Error Rate (PER) of IEEE 802.15.4 under the IEEE 802.11b interference is analyzed from an assumption of blind transmissions, i.e., both IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.15.4 transmit packets regardless of whether the channel state is busy or not. In (Sikora and Groza, 2005), measurements are performed to quantify coexistence issues. Channel conflict probabilities between IEEE 802.15 based Wireless Personal Area Networks is modeled in (Chen et al, 2006).…”
