MiWi P2P/MiWi/MiWi Pro star and mesh networking protocol stack range

An expanded MiWi development environment which is a complete ecosystem for designing star and mesh wireless networking products, comprises free, proprietary MiWi P2P, MiWi and MiWi Pro star and mesh networking protocol stacks.

Also included are the 8-bit wireless development kit and ZENA wireless adapters (2.4 GHz, 868 and 915 MHz) and the multi-purpose wireless development studio with cross-platform support for the Linux, Mac and Windows operating systems.

The tools are suitable for the development of ISM-band wireless networking applications for the home and industrial automation, wireless sensor monitoring and control and smart energy markets.

The MiWi Pro mesh-networking protocol is suitable for design engineers needing to create medium to large wireless systems. It supports up to 64 hops and 8000 nodes in an integrated mesh-network topology.

The Wireless Development Studio allows the development of wireless applications based on the MiWi protocols. It features a MiWi protocol sniffer for monitoring, debugging and gathering information and a configurator with a graphical user interface that enables the customisation and configuration of wireless networks.

Two hardware tools simplify wireless application development. The ZENA wireless adapters is a portable, multifunction development tool. When paired with the wireless studio, the adapters can be used for sniffing, probing and testing; or, they can be configured as a node on the network.

The 8-bit wireless development kit provides eXtreme Low Power PIC microcontroller users with a platform for developing, evaluating and testing low-power, cost-effective embedded wireless connectivity.

It features a pair of wireless PICtail daughter boards, two battery-friendly 8-bit XLP PIC MCU development boards and the ability to add additional nodes to create a larger wireless network.
