Controller design for the internet of things for Building Electrical Equipments

摘要

The Internet of Things for Building Electrical Equipments (IOTBEE), which introduces the Internet of Things (IOT) technology to manage and control all kinds of building electrical equipments, establishes an efficient way for energy-saving in intelligent buildings. However, most of the electrical equipments do not have controllers suitable for communication with the IOTBEE. To realize the control of the building electrical equipments in the IOTBEE, controllers for such equipments are designed in this study. Provided with the switching control interface, the infrared control interface and the serial port control interface, the designed controller can be used to control many types of building electrical equipments such as the water dispensers and the air-conditioners in the IOTBEE. Additionally, the wireless network technology and the harmonic detection technology are adopted in the hardware and the software design of the controllers. Besides common functions, the designed controller can be used for detecting power consumption.
