How Does ZigBee Compare To Bluetooth?

ZigBee was developed to serve very different applications than Bluetooth and leads to tremendous optimizations in power consumption. Some of the key differentiators are:

  • ZigBee:
    • Application level standardization
    • Very low duty cycle allowing for very long battery life
    • Static and dynamic star and mesh networks, supporting more than 65,000 nodes, with low latency available
    • Ability to remain quiescent for long periods without communications
    • Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum allows devices to sleep without the requirement for close synchronization
  • Bluetooth:
    • Moderate duty cycle, secondary battery lasts same as master,
    • Very high QoS and very low, guaranteed latency
    • Quasi-static star network limited to seven clients with ability to participate in more than one network
    • Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum is extremely difficult to create extended networks without large synchronization cost.
