In this paper, we describe the design and development of a remote household appliance control system using mobile handset through GSM technology. The advantages of cellular communications like GSM technology is a potential solution for such remote controlling activities. GSM-SMS technology can be used to control household appliances from remote places. Remotely, the system allows the homeowner to monitor and control his house appliances via his mobile phone set by sending commands in the form of SMS messages and receiving the appliances status as well. This system provides ideal solution to the problems caused in situations when a wired connection between a remote appliance/device and the control unit might not be feasible. The system is wireless and uses the users mobile handset for control and therefore the system is more adaptable and cost-effective. The system uses GSM technology thus providing ubiquitous access to the system for appliance control.
