ANT Low Power proprietary wsn protocol for Nordic and TI
from wikipedia: A more direct comparison can be drawn with ZigBee. ZigBee is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard PHY and Media Access Control (MAC) layers, and supports the ZigBee Alliance's own Network (NWK) and Application (APL) layers (refer to the OSI model). ZigBee's IEEE 802.15.4 PHY for the 2.4 GHz frequency band has a raw data rate of 250 kbit/s,[8] compared to ANT's 1 Mbit/s,[6] requiring ZigBee to stay on air longer than ANT to transmit a given volume of data. ANT transceivers using coin cell-type batteries is claimed to operate up to three years in low use applications.[9] ...... ANT uses an adaptive isochronous network technology to ensure co-existence. This scheme provides the ability for each transmission to occur in an interference free time slot within the defined frequency band. The radio transmits for less than 150 µs per message, allowing a single channel to be divided into hundreds of timeslots. The ANT messaging period (the time between each node transmitting its data) determines how many time slots are available. ANT's adaptive isochronous scheme doesn't require a master clock. Transmitters start broadcasting at regular intervals but then modify the transmission timing if interference from a neighbor is detected on a particular timeslot. This flexibility allows ANT to adapt to hostile conditions but ensures there is no overhead when interference is not present. If the radio environment is very crowded, ANT can use frequency agility to allow an application microcontroller-controlled "hop" to an alternative 1 MHz channel in the 2.4 GHz band which can then be subdivided into timeslots.

nRF24AP1
The nRF24AP1 is a combination of the nRF2401A with a masked in protocol called 'ANT' and a simple to use serial interface.

from mbed The Nordic Semi nRF21L01+ is a single-chip, 2.4GHz band wireless transceiver, capable of up to 2Mbps air data rate, multi-point reception, and auto-acknowledge / auto-retransmit. The nRF24L01+ consumes only 11.3mA while transmitting, and 13.5mA while receiving. It has a simple 6-pin digital connection, including a 4-wire SPI interface, an interrupt pin and dedicated transmit/receive enable pin. Sparkfun's module includes a chip antenna, and claims a range of 100m.
