AIM

The project GSM based Control System as the title suggests is aimed to construct a control
system that enables the complete control of the interface on which it is based. General objectives
of the project are defined as;
a. To co-ordinate appliances and other devices through Short Message Service (SMS).
b. To effectively receive and transmit data via SMS
c. To eliminate the need of being physically present in any location for tasks involving the
operation of appliances within a household/office.
d. Minimize power and time wastage.

INTRODUCTION

GSM based Control System implements the emerging applications of the GSM Technology.
Using GSM networks, a control system has been proposed that will act as an embedded system
which can monitor and control appliances and other devices locally using built-in input and
output peripherals.
Remotely the system allows the user to effectively monitor and control the house Appliances and
equipments via the mobile phone set by sending commands in the form of SMS messages and
receiving the appliances status. The main concept behind the project is receiving the sent SMS
and processing it further as required to perform several operations. The type of the operation to
be performed depends on the nature of the SMS sent. The principle in which the project is based

COMMUNICATION

TECHNOLOGY, NOIDA

is fairly simple. First, the sent SMS is stored and polled from the receiver mobile station and then
the required control signal is generated and sent to the intermediate hardware that we have
designed according to the command received in form of the sent message.
We have selected a particular Nokia mobile set (Nokia 2700) for our project. The messages are
sent from the mobile set that contain commands in written form which are then processed
accordingly to perform the required task. A microcontroller based system has been proposed for
our project. There are several terminologies that are used extensively throughout this project
report.
GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications): It is a cellular communication standard.
SMS (Short Message Service): It is a service available on most digital mobile phones that permit
the sending of short messages (also known as text messaging service).

GSM (SIM 300)

The SIM300 is a complete Tri-band GSM solution in compact plug-in module.

The GSM
modem consists of SIM card named as a SIM 300 is fixed with the modem. TheSIM300 offers
GSM/GPRS for performing operations like voice, SMS, Data and also Fax. It is small in size to
handle easily and perfectly in any device. AT commands also can be easily used because it has a
TTL interface with microcontrollers, computers and also other device. AT commands are used to
send and received SMS. SIM 300 works with 3.4V to 5V
The GSM module offers the advantages as below:

Ultra small size (22x22x3 mm), lightweight (3.2 g) and easy to integrate

Low power consumption

Full RS232 on CMOS level with flow control (RX, TX, CTS, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR,
DCD, RI)

High performance on low price.

RELAY

A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use an electromagnet to mechanically

operate as a switch but other operating principles are also used, such as solid-state relays. Relays
are used where it is necessary to control a circuit by a low-power signal (with complete electrical
isolation between control and controlled circuits) or where several circuits must be controlled by
one signal. Relays were used extensively in telephone exchanges and early computers to perform
logical operations.
A type of relay that can handle the high power required to directly control an electric motor or
other loads is called a contactor. Solid-state relays control power circuits with no moving parts,
instead using a semiconductor device to perform switching. Relays with calibrated operating
characteristics and sometimes multiple operating coils are used to protect electrical circuits from
overload or faults; in modern electric power systems these functions are performed by digital
instruments still called "protective relays".

Assuming that the control unit is powered and operating properly, the process of Controlling a
device connected to the interface will proceed through the following steps;
The remote user sends text messages including commands to the receiver.
GSM receiver receives messages sent from the user cell phone.
GSM receiver decodes the sent message and sends the commands to the microcontroller.
Microcontroller issues commands to the appliances and the devices connected will switch
ON/OFF.

SOFTWARE REQIREMENT ANALYSIS

PROTEUS has two simulation features namely ISIS and ARES.

In ISIS software we designed our circuit by following steps:

1. We selected our components from ISIS library.
2. Placed all the components in a new file.
3. Then we made all the connections according to our circuit diagram.

FIG: PROTEUS MODEL

In ARES we designed hardware model of our project by following steps:

1. We selected our components from ARES library.

2. Placed all the components in a new file.

3. Then we made all the connections according to our circuit diagram.
4. Then we converted it to pdf file.
NOTE: We used the ARES to design our hardware model.

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGTH:

Global System for Mobile is easy to access and use, portable, and has a global range.
Play an important role is saving the time and money of peoples.
Has a lower power consumption and low operational cost.

WEAKNESSES:

One problem that exists is that if there is no network coverage in the SIM inserted in
GSM module the whole system is useless.
User have to choose from the defined letter/word to text to operate the appliances.

OPPORTUNITIES:

Country wide implementation in homes, offices and even industries.

We could work on network issues to provide a smooth operation.

CONCLUSION

The project we have undertaken has helped us gain a better perspective on various aspects
related to our course of study as well as practical knowledge of electronic equipments and
communication. We became familiar with software analysis, designing, implementation
concerned with our project. The extensive capabilities of this system are what make it so
interesting. From the convenience of a simple cell phone, a user is able to control and monitor
virtually any electrical devices. This makes it possible for users to rest assured that their
belongings are secure and that the television and other electrical appliances was not left running
when they left the house to just list a few of the many uses of this system. The end product will
have a simplistic design making it easy for users to interact with. This will be essential because
of the wide range of appliances and knowledge of texting that homeowners have.
