Design and development of activation and controlling of home

automation system via SMS through microcontroller

ABSTRACT:
Nowadays there are various electronic equipment available for remote operation
of grid control. However, the main disadvantage of these systems is that they can be
operated only from short ranges and also less reliable. Thus, to overcome the above
drawbacks, we are using one of the wireless communication technique i.e., GSM (Global
System for Mobile communications) is a digital cellular communications system which
has rapidly gained acceptance and market share worldwide.

The development of GSM is the first step towards a true personal communication
system that will allow us to communication anywhere, anytime and with anyone.

GSM (Global Systems for Mobile Communication) is vastly used because of its
simplicity in both transmitter and receiver design, can operate at 900 or 1800MHZ band,
faster , more reliable and globally network .

This project is designed for seven power grids. AT89S52 is the heart of the
project. A GSM modem is interfaced to microcontroller. This modem receives the
messages from control mobile and sends as input to MCU. The MCU verify for
authentication of the number and, if the number is authorised, grid control will be taken
place, EEPROM is interfaced to this controller to save the grid position at every instant.

This grid position information will not be deleted even in power failure
conditions. 3X4 keypad is interfaced to change the mobile number at any time. 16X2
LCD is interfaced to display user-required information. In this project TRAIC is used as
load controller (as a switch), MOC3021 used as a Triac driver.

GSM network operators have roaming facilities, user can often continue to use
there mobile phones when they travel to other countries etc….

This project uses regulated 5v, 750mA power supply. 7805 and
7812 three terminal voltage regulators are used for voltage regulation. Bridge type full
wave rectifier is used to rectify the ac output of secondary of 230/12v step down
transformer.

Advantages:
• System can be monitored and controlled from any where
• Mobile number can be changed at any time
• Grid status will not be lost in power failure condition

Scopes for Advancements:

 This system is developed for mobile reporting application only. It also can be
interfaced to computer system to record and process data base.

Applications:
• Process Industries, Power Grids
