REAL TIME CONTROL OF REMOTE LOADS USING

WSN

Objective:

In this project we are monitoring the load(bulb) in real time.

In practical it is difficult to control the loads in real time by going

directly to station and switching on/off loads and to trip the circuit
breakers and controlling other equipment.

So we use wireless sensor and networks to control loads

Wireless Sensors and Networks

Wireless sensor networks (WSN), sometimes called wireless sensor and

actuator networks (WSAN), are spatially distributed autonomous sensors
to monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature,
sound, pressure, etc. and to cooperatively pass their data through the
network to a main location

The WSN is built of "nodes" from a few to several hundreds or even

thousands, where each node is connected to one (or sometimes several)
sensors. Each such sensor network node has typically several parts: a
radio transceiver with an internal antenna or connection to an external
antenna, a microcontroller, an electronic circuit for interfacing with the
sensors and an energy source, usually a battery or an embedded form of
energy harvesting.

What is IoT?

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects

devices, vehicles, buildings and other items embedded with electronics,
software, sensors, and network connectivitythat enables these
objects to collect and exchange data.

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and

software.Arduino boardsare able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a
button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning
on an LED, publishing something online.

You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the
microcontroller on the board. To do so you use theArduino programming
language(based onWiring), andthe Arduino Software (IDE), based onProcessing.

Over the years Arduino has been the brain of thousands of projects, from everyday
objects to complex scientific instruments.

A worldwide community of makers - students, hobbyists, artists, programmers, and

professionals - has gathered around this open-source platform, their contributions
have added up to an incredible amount ofaccessible knowledgethat can be of great
help to novices and experts alike.

Result:

Remote control (Transmitter):

It is used to ON / OFF device or to change state from remote place.

Because its RF type (ASK) remote control, its range is around 150
meter.

It sends particular codes for different keys over 434 MHz carrier
frequency.

Processing

Programming logic is used to turn ON/OFF the loads

Arduino board act as transceiver

Description:

Arduino is used to send signals to Ethernet shield which is switched on

by a router

We write codes using Arduino software to switch on/off a load, here it is

a bulb.
