"At the Light & Building trade fair in Frankfurt, a group of home automation solution providers has launched the Enocean Alliance to foster the homonymous radio technology provided by startup company Enocean GmbH. The group standardizes on the Enocean physical layer, enabling interoperability between applications. Members of the alliance are, among others, Honeywell subsidiary MK Electric (Basildon, UK), Distech Controls (Quebec, Canada), Masco (Taylor, USA), Omnio AG (Lufingen, Switzerland), and Thermokon Sensortech (Mittenaar, Germany). Also Siemens and Osram have joined the group.
The alliance plans to develop and market a broad spectrum of interoperable products targeting at measurement and control applications related to building and home automation. The scope of the group's efforts will include establishing the proprietary Enocean radio technology as an international standard as well as developing sensor profiles and marketing of related solutions.
Enocean's self-powered radio technology uses the 860 MHZ ISM band. The devices feature a self-learning address scheme similar to the one used in DECT phones to integrate them into a network with up to 4200 devices connected to one node. The data interchange is implemented by datagrams with a duration of maximum 500 microseconds."
