A wireless power outlet system for smart homes

ABSTRACT This paper presents the design and implementation of a wireless-controllable power outlet system for home automation networks. The proposed power outlet module integrates a ZigBee radio into its architecture. It acts as an actuator node in the home automation networks for remote control operations. A prototype of the power outlet module following the proposed architecture has been implemented. A testbed of a simple home automation network for validating the basic functions of the power outlet module has also been created. Results of the demonstration experiment show that the proposed power outlet module enables easy and flexible control of various home appliances with little infrastructure. It helps us add more intelligence into the home environments rapidly.

Integration of Technologies for Smart Home Application

ABSTRACT This paper discusses the design and implementation of a prototype system which integrates various existing technologies for home monitoring and control that fits with the future smart home concept. The system provides two way communications between home appliances /electronics devices, and a mobile phone. The home devices which are connected wirelessly using Bluetooth technology to a home server can be monitored and controlled via the mobile phone using a portable MIDlet application. The prototype system supports three main services: monitoring the

status of devices; controlling their setting through configurations that are device dependent; and periodic notification of the status of all devices. The wireless technologies to realize the project are GSM and Bluetooth. J2ME for the mobile application, Java for the server application, and C for the microcontroller application are the programming languages used in the prototype system.

InfoPods: Zigbee-based remote information monitoring devices for smart-homes

ABSTRACT Recent developments in ad-hoc wireless networks, single-chip embedded systems and the wide-spread availability of Internet in homes has made it possible to remotely monitor status of external data sources and home appliances using small, independent wireless devices. This paper presents an open-architecture and an implementation of such a system called the IPnfopods System. This architecture is based on a Zigbee-based controller. The architecture allows multiple family members to simultaneously monitor their home appliances as well as external Internet resources using cheap, stand-alone hand-held mobile wireless devices. The proposed architecture can be easily integrated with existing smart-home systems. The architecture is implemented and demonstrated in the context of an existing Javabased smarthome architecture.

Smart Home Mobile RFID-Based Internet-ofThings Systems and Services

ABSTRACT Smart homes can apply new Internet-Of-Things concepts along with RFID technologies for creating ubiquitous services. This paper introduces a novel read-out method for a hierarchical wireless master-slave RFID reader architecture of multi standard NFC (Near Field Communication) and UHF (Ultra High Frequency) technologies to build a smart home service system that benefits in terms of cost, energy consumption and complexity. Various smart home service use cases such as washing programs, cooking, shopping and elderly health care are described as examples that make use of this system.

Smart home gateway for smart grid

ABSTRACT This paper presents a smart home computing platform architecture that extends smart home network to be compatible for smart grid integration. The proposed hardware architecture along with a tailored software algorithm empowers utility companies and homeowners to communicate bi-directionally with home appliances via a public mobile network to monitor and manage power consumption of home appliances. The platform also enables homeowners to operate, monitor and control their home appliances locally via a control panel and remotely via their mobile phones.

e2Home: A Lightweight Smart Home Management System

ABSTRACT Most of the latest system for controlling home appliance remotely have used web server as the interface between users and home network. Although the system that adopts web server offers many advantages, this approach requires a fix IP (Internet Protocol) address and remote users require high-speed connection in order to access the web interface due to the heavy loaded Graphical User Interface (GUI) and interactive components of the web interface. To alleviate the above problem, we have developed e2Home which enable remote user to manage smart home appliances in connection scarce environment. e2Home uses email as the

communication medium between users and home network. In this paper, we describe the concept and design of e2Home. We also demonstrate the feasibility experiment by implementing e2Home with cost-effective home appliance controller and mobile robot. The result of our implementation shows that e2Home is feasible to be applied in smart home environment.

The Smart Home Concept : our immediate future

ABSTRACT This general paper aims at presenting the Smart Home concept. In this paper, we will detail a) the Smart Home concept b) the various networks infrastructures specific to the habitat c) our concepts to model the habitat and to provide the most adapted services to the inhabitants. Contrary to the other projects, we direct our work towards a sensors approach and an ontology modelling of the Smart Home. Our work has the originality to take into account the real heterogeneity of information present in a habitat and use a service oriented approach (SOA). We can say that our paper is a good overview to present what is a Smart Home and which are the necessary hardware and software components to make a Smart Home

The communication with all components of the system is done using a variety of wireless technologies. The system incorporates security features at both ends that prevent unauthorized access as well as assign privileges to the users. The complete prototype smart home system was implemented and it supports three main services: monitoring the status of devices, controlling their settings through configurations that are device dependent, and periodic notification of the status of devices. The prototype system has a modular structure that enables the incorporation of additional components and services.

Beyond the Smart Home

ABSTRACT Due to progress in wired and wireless home networking, sensor networks, networked appliances, mechanical and control engineering, and computers, we can build smart homes, and many smart home projects are currently proceeding throughout the world. However, we have to be careful not to repeat the same mistake that was made with home automation technologies that were booming in the 1970s. That is,

[total?] automation should not be a goal of smart home technologies. I believe the following points are important in construction of smart homes from users?? viewpoints: development of interface technologies between humans and systems for detection of human intensions, feelings, and situations; improvement of system knowledge; and extension of human activity support outside homes to the scopes of communities, towns, and cities.

The Analysis and Implementation of Smart Home Control System

ABSTRACT Smart home controller have been used in many cases, user can monitor and control the electrical device in home from distance through Internet. In this paper we introduced the implementation of smart home controller. The system consists of three subsystems: embedded controller, signal converter and terminal device. To enable the user manage the controller anywhere and anytime on different terminal, the B/S architecture is selected. As the system consists of many different sensors and actuators, the controller should parse different protocols. Furthermore, to make the new actuator can add to the system, the address learning method was introduced.
