From: fasf on 22 May 2010 13:16 Hi, I want to realize a wireless sensor network at 868MHz: this network should be used in open ambient, so long range (and low power) is important for me. What do you think is the better solution? About protocol: i thougth ZigBee, but i haven't found interesting solution at this range (I may be mistaken)...A standard implementation is the best solution, but non strictly necessary....For me a lot of positive feedback from protocol users is very importat...last but not least, it shoud be free of charge and open source About transceiver: i'm looking for a very low power system on chip solution (8bit micro + transceiver) Can you help me?i'm a little confused... Thanks

Nice core though.... with all the low level stuff done for you. I use the non 51 version with code in a mega48P and it works well.

What protocol is used? It is free and open source? Thanks
