1.2 Statement of problem
Technology has advanced so much in the last decade or two that it has made life more efficient and comfortable. The comfort of being able to take control of devices from one particular location has become imperative (i.e. important) as it saves a lot of time and effort. Therefore there arises a need to do so in a systematic manner which will be implemented in the proposed system. The system is an extended approach to automating a control system. With the advancement and breakthrough in technology over the years, the lives of people have become busier than before. With the adoption of this system, we can gain control over certain things that require constant attention. The application of this system comes in handy when people who forget to do simple things such as turn ON or OFF devices at their homes or at their offices. They can now d so without their presence by the transmission of a simple call from their mobile phone. This development , I believe will ultimately save a lot of time especially when people do not have to come back for simple things such as to turn ON or OFF at their homes or at their office once they set out for their respective work or appointment.
1.3 Project Aims and objectives
The project “GSM 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 :
a. To co-ordinate appliances and other devices through calls.
b. To effectively receive and transmit data via calls.
c. To eliminate the need of being physically present in any location for tasks involving the operation of appliances with household/office.
d. Minimize power and time wastage.
e. It allows a great degree of freedom to an individual.
1.4 Justification of study
o The proposed project can be used as a reference or as a base of realizing a scheme to be implemented in other project of greater level such as device synchronization, temperature updates, weather forecasting etc.
o The project itself can be modified to achieve a complete home automation system which will then create a platform for the user to interface between himself and the household.
It can be used by companies for management purpose example is switching ON/OFF the server in other to manage the bandwidth.
1.5 Scope of the study
The project covers the aspect of just being able to switch ON/OFF any electrical appliance connected to the circuit.
1.6 Project Report Organization
The project is designed to have five chapters, which will explain in details the various aspects of system. The first chapter gives an introduction to GSM control system along with the project aims and objectives, with emphasis to the scope in order to achieve the desired goal and limitations to the study.
Chapter two is on literature review which contains a review of previously implemented systems.
Chapter three contains the details of the entire major component that were used in the actualization of the hardware part of the project.
Chapter four deals with the implementation and the testing, the chapter contains the major work of the project.
Chapter five summarizes and concludes the project work on GSM – Based Remote switching system. Recommendations are also stated.
