ANT
From Capsil Wiki
ANT™ [1] is a proven protocol and silicon solution for ultra-low power practical wireless networking applications. Designed for 2.4 GHz operation, ANT is perfectly suited for any kind of low data rate sensor network topologies in personal area networks (PANs) and practical wireless sensor networks (WSN). ANT has been intentionally engineered to simplify practical wireless network development and optimize network efficiency. ANT-powered network nodes can operate for years on a coin cell battery compared to months for other technologies. Rich in capabilities, ANT provides reliable data communications, flexible and adaptive network operation and cross-talk immunity.
