ZigBee is a recently dev, eloped short-distance wireless communication technology. Compared with other wireless communication technologies, ZigBee has advantages in its network expandability, equipment cost and battery life. ZigBee technology and the function of an embedded processor S3C2410, which is explored by Samsung with ARM920T, are described. To satisfy our requirement of the low-power, low-cost wireless communication. S3C2410 processor is used to build an embedded wireless communication system. In the end, the project of the hardware and software design is introduced.
