ABSTRACT
In the age of quotidian systems it is important to be able to
control robots everywhere.
Although different mode to remotely control robots have been
devised, the mode have the difficulty such as the need for
unique devices or software to control the robots.
This paper suggests a methodology of robot control using the
DTMF tone generated when the user press mobile phone
keypad buttons when connected with a remote mobile robot.
INTRODUCTION
Since mobile phone enables human to connect across the globe via
Telecommunication network.Mobile phone is a qualified device to
control the home robot.
This paper suggests a method to control a robot through DTMF
(Dual Tone Multiple Frequency) signal of mobile phone.
Our method uses the DTMF tone generated when a keypad button
of the mobile phone called by the robot is pressed. A mobile phone
user controls the robot by sending the DTMF tone to the robot
BLOCK DIAGRAM
The method suggested in this
paper for robot control adopts the
DTMF tone of the mobile phone.
As the Figure shows, the
components of this system consist of
the mobile phone,robot control
system and mobile robot.
The robot control system is
physically included in the mobile
robot.
It consists of an external CDMA
modem, DTMF receiver board and
microprocessor-based control board.
When the DTMF receiver is about
to transmit the converted digital
signal to the control board, it
interrupts the control board.
Then, the microprocessor-based control board receives

the digital binary data based on the DTMF tone from the
DTMF receiver when handing the interrupt.
The control board analyzes the digital binary data and

finds whether it is same with one among predefined
defined values.
DTMF is a system of signal tones

used in telecommunications.
There are twelve standard signals and
WHAT
IS DTMF?
four extra buttons A, B, C,
D, which normally are unseen on
telephone keypad.
DTMF stands for dual tone multiple
frequency. DTMF is a term which
used in telephone industry. DTMF
generation is a composite audio
signals of two tones between the
frequency of 697Hz and 1633Hz.
Above is a representation of the
typical DTMF keypad and the
associated row/column frequencies.
DTMF Basics
Properties of DTMF tone frequencies are:
No frequency is an integer multiple of another

The difference between any two frequencies does not equal any of the
frequencies
The sum of any two frequencies does not equal any of the frequencies
There are three options for communication to implement in

communication system:
Wireless Internet Platform (WIP)
Short Message Service (SMS)
DTMF Signal
DTMF signal of mobile

phone and DTMF receiver
The DTMF tones generated from mobile
phones are transmitted over mobile
communication networks to a CDMA
external modem that is incorporated in the
mobile robot.
The CDMA external modem sends the
voice signals with the DTMF tone to the
DTMF receiver through a stereo ear phone
jack. As the Figure 4 shows, the DTMF
receiver passes the DTMF tone through a
zero crossing detector [5] and divides the
width frequency and the height frequency
into a high group filter and a low group
filters.
The DTMF receiver calculates a point of
intersection between the two frequencies.
The DTMF receiver modulates this signal
through a digital detection
IMPLEMENTATION
The robot control system through the mobile
phone DTMF tone in this paper is depicted in
Figure The mobile phone used in this system
is a general phone that is registered on a
mobile communication network of a mobile
network provider.
The mobile robot in this system consists of a
CDMA external modem, DTMF receiver,
microprocessor-based robot control, DC
motors and the drivers. The CDMA external
modem is the Bell-wave BSM-856 and includes
the Qualcomm MSM 6050 chipset. The modem
is also registered in a mobile communication
network, so has a unique phone number.
The DTMF decoder chip is the Samsung
Electronics KT3170
APPLICATIONS
This setup with a little modification can be used in the following
applications.
1) It can Support to medical services
2) In a pitfall Environments
3) Construction and demolishing
4) Wireless Robot control
5) Assistance to handicapped or elderly people
6) Theft intimation
7) It can be used as a Remote Switches
8) Reporting during car accidents
CONCLUSION
This paper presented a method to control a robot using the DTMF
tone generated when the user press the keypad buttons of a mobile
phone connected to the remote mobile robot.
This control mode uses commercial mobile communication networks
as the way of data transmission. We can control the mobile robot
stably. This enables the user to control the mobile robot through out
the working period by sending the mobile phone DTMF tone.
Users can easily control the mobile robot using the mobile phone
keypad, a user-friendly device. This system was implemented in the
2G mobile communication network, so video data cannot be
obtained Future work will research the robot control system in the
3G mobile communication networks.
This will eventually facilitate controlling the remote robot, using the
DTMF of mobile phone with video data from the remote mobile
robots camera.
