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联盟宣布踏入电信市场，为移动电话用户提供新性能的同时，这项新举措还扩展了移动电话网络。新的ZigBee Telecom Profile将具有安全移动支付、信息传输、健康状况监测、对等小型数据共享以及其他基于本地化的服务和功能。

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联盟踏入电信市场是由来自领先的网络运营商以及技术供应商的业界专家推动的，包括摩托罗拉、华为技术、三星电子、ETRI、KDDI研发实验室公司、OKI电气工业、Orange FT、意大利电信以及TSC系统。这些联盟成员正在努力开发Zigbee的内在功能优势：低功率、可靠的网状网络、AES安全性、低数据比率以及兼容全球网络。因为ZigBee是连接不同设备的全球无线语言，这些公司可以开发新的移动应用，同时可以访问基于ZigBee的家庭和商业建筑的自动化设备。

“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联盟主席Bob Heile表示：“ZigBee提供了高性价比的、基于标准的无线网络解决方案，强调移动性、可靠性和易用性，非常适合今天移动电话日益增多的世界。通过整合市场上现有的东西，我们的成员为电信公司提供了增加营收的新方法，同时简化了各处移动电话用户的生活。现在任何一家开发自有电信解决方案的公司都应该涉及到ZigBee，而且参与到联盟这个正在茁壮成长的体系中。”

The New ZigBee Mobile Device

新的ZigBee移动设备

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移动设备包括移动电话和嵌入ZigBee技术或者使用ZigBee SIM卡的个人数码设备。这些设备在任何一个ZigBee网络或者ZigBee访问点的地方，扮演着一个移动终端及（或者）一个传感器控制设备的角色。当前正在开发的潜在应用包括：

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

安全移动支付：移动设备用户只需要在扫描器前面把手持设备晃动一下，输入一个PIN数字，就可以为商品和服务支付了

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

信息传输：用户接收新闻，下载信息、铃声、图像等，下载来自网络运营商或者当地信息机构的天气、交通更新状况以及用户当前和邻近位置的电影开始时间等广告。

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

健康状况监测：连续监测得到的健康数据被记录到手持设备中，而且传输给病人的医生。在紧急情况下，例如病人没有反应或者危险症状警报，移动设备会立刻自动向急救中心发出警报

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

对等小型数据共享：铃声、图像、名片夹以及其他由电信运营商提供信息等小型文件可以容易地在两个ZigBee移动设备之间共享

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

本地化服务：ZigBee移动电话用户在某一个区域拨打电话的折扣率为用户节省了话费
