| Summary: | The peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing protocol has
evolved from depending on Internet connection provided by
traditional mobile cellular telecommunication networks to free
Internet connectivity through Wi-Fi technology. Recently, P2P
reach was extended further in the Personal Area Network
using Bluetooth. On the other hand, IEEE 802.15.4 Zigbee is a
wireless sensor network (WSN) standard and smart phones are
expected to be equipped with a ZigBee modem to provide
control functionality for personal WSNs such as home
networking, body area networks, …etc. This paper introduces
ZigBee technology to the mobile P2P environment, involving
devices with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and higher
OSs. Such an Android platform is the lowest version that can
be found among smartphones, tablets, and more. Results show
that the developed protocol provides P2P and P2MP
functionality between devices supporting Zigbee air interface.
