* What is ANT? [#d47490e0]
>
ANT is a proprietary wireless sensor network protocol, which is running in 2.4 GHz band. This protocol is developed by Dynastream Innovations Inc., a subsidiary of Garmin Ltd. ANT can work at ultra-law power consumption and is capable of handling various types of topologies such as peer-to-peer, star, and fixed mesh topologies. However, the communication distance is limited, and the amount of data that ANT can transmit at one time, is also restricted.~
ANT+ is a managed network based upon ANT technology. This managed network provides “device profiles,” which allow the same profiles of ANT devices to communicate each other. To grant the communications, ANT+ presets the values of parameters for each profile. The types of profiles are heart rate monitor, pedometer, scaler, cadence sensor and other fitness and wellness devices. Totally 11 ANT+ profiles are available.~
