Abstract

This paper presents a solution for a low cost wireless module using a zigbee/IEEE 802.15.4 wireless microcontroller and inkjet printing on low cost substrate for the Radio Frequency (RF) circuit, antenna, as well as printed traces used for signal routing. The simplicity of the design outlined in the paper as well as the fabrication technique used could potentially improve prototyping as well as production techniques for such wireless modules.
