Zigbee connects to mobile phones 

Zigbee連接移動電話

San Ramon, Calif. – April 27, 2007 – The ZigBee Alliance announced its expansion into the telecom market with a new initiative extending mobile telephone networks while providing new capabilities for mobile phone users. The new ZigBee Telecom Profile will feature secure mobile payment, information delivery, health care monitoring, peer-to-peer small data sharing and other location based services and features.

加州4月27日消息——Zigbee聯盟宣布踏入電信市場，為移動電話用戶提供新性能的同時，這項新舉措還擴展了移動電話網絡。新的ZigBee Telecom Profile將具有安全移動支付、信息傳輸、健康狀況監測、對等小型數據共享以及其他基于本地化的服務和功能。

The Alliance's growth into the telecom market is driven by industry experts from leading network operators and technology providers including Motorola, Huawei Technologies, Samsung Electronics, ETRI, KDDI R&D Laboratories Inc., OKI Electric Industry, Orange FT, Telecom Italia and TSC Systems. These members are examining ways to leverage the inherent strengths of ZigBee: low power, reliable mesh networking, AES128 security, low data rate and global network acceptance. Because ZigBee is the global wireless language connecting dramatically different devices, companies can develop new mobile applications while gaining access to ZigBee-based home and commercial building automation devices.

Zigbee聯盟踏入電信市場是由來自領先的網絡運營商以及技術供應商的業界專家推動的，包括摩托羅拉、華為技術、三星電子、ETRI、KDDI研發實驗室公司、OKI電氣工業、Orange FT、意大利電信以及TSC系統。這些聯盟成員正在努力開發Zigbee的內在功能優勢：低功率、可靠的網狀網絡、AES安全性、低數據比率以及兼容全球網絡。因為ZigBee是連接不同設備的全球無線語言，這些公司可以開發新的移動應用，同時可以訪問基于ZigBee的家庭和商業建筑的自動化設備。

“ZigBee offers cost-effective, standards-based wireless networking solutions emphasizing mobility, reliability and ease of use – a perfect fit for today's increasingly mobile phone oriented world,” said Bob Heile, chairman of the ZigBee Alliance. “By formalizing what was already happening in the market, our members are giving telecom companies new ways to expand revenue, while simplifying the lives of mobile phone users everywhere. Any company developing proprietary telecom solutions should get involved with ZigBee and participate in the Alliance's thriving ecosystem now.”

ZigBee聯盟主席Bob Heile表示：“ZigBee提供了高性價比的、基于標準的無線網絡解決方案，強調移動性、可靠性和易用性，非常適合今天移動電話日益增多的世界。通過整合市場上現有的東西，我們的成員為電信公司提供了增加營收的新方法，同時簡化了各處移動電話用戶的生活。現在任何一家開發自有電信解決方案的公司都應該涉及到ZigBee，而且參與到聯盟這個正在茁壯成長的體系中?！?/P>

The New ZigBee Mobile Device

新的ZigBee移動設備

ZigBee mobile devices include mobile telephones and personal digital assistants with embedded ZigBee technology or using a ZigBee SIM card. These devices act as a mobile terminal and/or as a sensor control device anywhere there is a ZigBee network or ZigBee access point. Potential applications currently in development include:

ZigBee移動設備包括移動電話和嵌入ZigBee技術或者使用ZigBee SIM卡的個人數碼設備。這些設備在任何一個ZigBee網絡或者ZigBee訪問點的地方，扮演著一個移動終端及（或者）一個傳感器控制設備的角色。當前正在開發的潛在應用包括：

Secure Mobile Payments: Mobile users pay for goods and services by waving handset in front of scanner and entering a pin number

安全移動支付：移動設備用戶只需要在掃描器前面把手持設備晃動一下，輸入一個PIN數字，就可以為商品和服務支付了

Information Delivery: Users receive news, downloads (messages, ring tones, images, etc.), advertisements from network operators or localized information such as weather, traffic updates and movie show times based on their current location or neighborhood

信息傳輸：用戶接收新聞，下載信息、鈴聲、圖像等，下載來自網絡運營商或者當地信息機構的天氣、交通更新狀況以及用戶當前和鄰近位置的電影開始時間等廣告。

Health Care Monitoring: Continuously monitored health data is recorded on a handset and transmitted to the patient's doctor. In an emergency situation, such as the absence of patient response or alarming vital signs, the mobile device can be programmed to immediately alert emergency services

健康狀況監測：連續監測得到的健康數據被記錄到手持設備中，而且傳輸給病人的醫生。在緊急情況下，例如病人沒有反應或者危險癥狀警報，移動設備會立刻自動向急救中心發出警報

Peer-to-Peer Small Data Sharing: Small files such as ring tones, images, address book contacts and other information provided by telecom operators is shared easily between two ZigBee-enabled mobile devices

對等小型數據共享：鈴聲、圖像、名片夾以及其他由電信運營商提供信息等小型文件可以容易地在兩個ZigBee移動設備之間共享

Location Based Services: Discounted rates for calls from a ZigBee mobile phone users in a certain zone offers savings to users

本地化服務：ZigBee移動電話用戶在某一個區域撥打電話的折扣率為用戶節省了話費
