1. INTRODUCTION

   Home automation system offers a reliable life for mankind. It is one of the major applications of IOT technology. The system is used for controlling and handling the home appliances like Lights, Fans, AC etc. The fundamental idea of home automation is controlling each device using the internet and collect data from the sensors in a home network. Other side Home Automation is a well organizing method to utilize in every field such that to reduce manpower, energy consumption, manipulation and also for improving the quality and efficiency

   of any system. Figure 1 is showing the basic diagram of home automation. The wireless devices work using the internet to operate the home appliances through a residential gateway.

   Fig 1: Basic diagram of home automation [1]

   The principle objective of this project is to build up a home automation system utilizing Arduino and ESP8266 WIFI module to guarantee the client complete control of the remotely controllable electronic machines at home. On the other hand, using IOT system, the module ensures a safe home security system.

2. SECNARIO

   IOT based home security systems have attracted peoples attention mostly because of its global coverage. For example, a user can check his or her house while being on a vacation outside the country. All that is needed is an internet connection. Until now there are more IOT company headquarters in USA than in UK. France, India, Canada, Japan and China are the only other countries which have more than 20 IOT companies. In July 2016, the Netherlands had a national network specifically for IOT traffic and became the first country to possess such a system[2]. They used a network system named LoRa which acts as an alternate version of 4G or Wi-Fi. This system offered more security and is being operated in more than 56 countries[3].

   Fig 2: Use of LoRa network around the world [3]

   On average, 3 out of 5 people buy smart products to observe their home through their smartphones. Commonly used smart home products are Locks and Alarms, Termostats and Fan, Lighting and CO detectors as shown in the figure.

   Fig 3: Widely used smart home products [4]

   It is expected that by 2020 over 477 million smart home products will be delivered all over the world. This may result in creating a global network of automated home system where one can access their home from anywhere in the world and allow everyone to create a more secured and power saving system.

3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

   1. Overview of the System

      This project's proposal will hold the prototype accomplishment of an improved home automation arrangement that utilizes IOT technology and microcontroller as a network system connecting its wedges. To develop a home automation system which will be controlled by an ESP8266 Wi-Fi application with IOT. A servo motor have been used for controlling the door lock system. By this system the user can be connected to different devices wirelessly through Wi-Fi module and provide command in server. Nowadays, technology have become so advanced that modern houses get the facilities of home

      automation, but with high cost which is often not affordable for many people. The goal of this project is to introduce a system that is more effective, reliable, low cost and can operate from anywhere without any hazard.

   2. System Convenience

   This system introduces an advance home automation system technology using ESP8266 Wi-Fi and servo motor SG90. A server account is established, which will connect with the ESP8266 Wi-Fi and provide the command on the web page. This introduces a new embedded system, which may reduce manual efforts of opening a lock with a key, as well as the errors done by humans for example, accidentally leaving the door keys at home. This system can be used even in the remote areas by simply connecting to the internet. Additionally, if any device is left on by mistake, this system allows the user to turn off those devices remotely which reduce losses of electricity.

4. PROPOSED SYSTEM

   The main operational block diagram of this project is provide below Fig 4(i). To control home appliance from any remote place with sending command to the internet. The load can be controlled and checked utilizing a website page with user configurable front end. The complete block diagram is shown in Fig 4(i) where, the ESP Wi-Fi module plays the role of main controlling unit. The user can send command through the assigned IP and these command are nourished to the Wi-Fi module. This module is designed to access internet using any nearby wireless connection. The commands received by a Wi-Fi module are executed by a program within the Wi-Fi module. The Wi-Fi module is interfaced to TRIAC and Opt coupler through which the loads are turned ON and OFF based on the command. The load status (ON or OFF) will be shown on the page.

   Fig 4(i): Block diagram for IOT based home automation system

   Fig 4(ii): Flowchart of smart controlling system.

   In fig 4(ii), The above flowchart is showing how a controlling system would work here. The system is connected to the Wi-Fi. Then the user will log in to the web page and send a command to the server. This command is processed in the ESP module. The command is then read by the microcontroller. Both ESP module and microcontroller runs on DC. The relays are turned on and off accordingly by the microcontroller. Since the output devices run on AC, the relays act like channels which provides AC power when the command is ON and turns OFF supply when it is OFF (according to fig 4 (i)). The coding and simulation has been done based on the flowchart shown in fig4(ii).

5. EQUIPMENTS

   1. AC-DC Power Adapter Converter

      An AC/DC adapter is type of outer power supply. AC/DC connectors are connected with direct power supplies and it contains a transformer to change the mains power voltage to a lower voltage [5].

      Fig 5: 12V, 2A AC-DC Power Adapter Converter

      In this project every equipment requires a constant DC voltage or current to operate optimally. Two wires are directly connected with 5 devices which require an input voltage of 12V DC. Rest of the wires are connected with a buck-converter. AC-DC Power Adapter Converter can convert incoming AC power to the proper DC voltage and regulate the current that flows through the devices during operation. The Switching Power Supply driver which is used in this project can convert 100V-240V AC 50- 60 Hz power to the 12V DC power, required by the devices and protects them from line-voltage fluctuations.

      About connection:

      • L/N (AC): 120VAC input form the plug. When plugged in, the screw must not be touched with bare hands. It is recommended to isolate the screw with liquid electrical tape.

      • COM: Stands for Common, this is return power. Wires connected here should be black. This unit will support max 50M LED strips at 2A each

        +V with 12V DC output.

        +V ADJ: It is used to adjust the output voltage. Using a multimeter to find out whether the unit is supplying significantly more or less than 12 volts, then adjust the voltage accordingly.

   2. Buck Converter

      A buck converter is a DC-to-DC control converter which ventures down voltage from its input to its output.

      Fig 6: Buck circuit

      Buck converter is used to step down the voltage. As input power supply gives constant 12V DC but esp8266 Node MCU can operate at 3V. Here 12V is converted by buck converter and stepped down the voltage at 5V. This 5V is fed into esp8266 Node MCU. A multimeter is used on the buck converter's output to regulate the voltage at 5V to 3V. This 3V is applied as power supply on ESP8266 Node MCU (Wi-Fi Module) since the ESP8266 can take a maximum 3V-3.6V.

   3. ESP8266 NODE MCU(WI-FI MODULE)

      The Node MCU (Node Microcontroller Unit) is an open source programming and equipment improvement condition that is worked around an exceptionally modest System-on-a-Chip (SoC) called the ESP8266[6].

The server can be restrained by WI-FI or cellular connection. From server when the command is provided ESP8266's receiver receives it and delivers the command to the microcontroller. The NOT gate (7404) is connected with ESP8266 Node MCU. All Loads can operate at minimum 5V which is connected with ESP8266 module for controlling purpose but ESP8266 Node MCU accepts maximum 3V so here a NOT gate have been used to provide the relay 5V as the relay driver is connected with loads. Only NOT gate have below specification_

      When Vin = 3V then Vout = 0 (Gate voltage becomes open)

      When Vin = 0 then Vout = 5V (Gate voltage is +5V which is show in Vout)

   4. Solenoid Lock

      A solenoid lock is a sort of electronic-mechanical locking instrument. It is also a nonexclusive term for a loop of wire utilized as an electromagnet [7].

      Fig 8: Solenoid Lock

      Solenoid works similar to relay. It connects with the output of relay module and ground (common). There has steel rod inside the solenoid. When Solenoid gets 12V from relay output, the rod is magnetized by high current and immediately passing it on the forward direction.

   5. Servo Motor SG90

      The servo motor is most generally utilized for high innovation instrument in the manufactured application such as home automation. It is an independent electrical device, the part of the machine rotate with a specific angle [8].

      Fig 9: Servo Motor SG90

      Servo motor is tiny and lightweight with low input voltage (5V) and high output voltage (12V). As it can rotate approximately 180 degrees (90 in each direction) using this operation, door can be locked by command. Servo motor connects with power supply (5V), D8 PIN of microcontroller and ground (common).When the door gets ON command from server, the solenoid and servo motor senses the command, but first the solenoid gets pulse and opens, after 5sec delay servo motor turns on. But when the door gets OFF command, the servo motor closes first, then the solenoid closes.

   6. Arduino Uno

      Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P (datasheet). It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz quartz crystal, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header and a reset button[9].

      Fig 10: Arduino Uno

      In this project by the help of utilizing the ESP8266, it sends order to the site of Arduino to turn on and off load. The servo motor's terminal connects with Arduino Uno (9 pin). Loads- L1, L2& L3 are shorted with respectively relays- RL3, RL2 & RL1. Relays RL3, RL2& RL1 connect with respectively 11, 12 &13 pin of Arduino Uno and also connect with +5V power supply (DC).

   7. 6 Channel DC 5V Relay Module

      6 way relay output module connects with 5 loads as two fan, two light and one door. The relay input IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4, IN5 are connecting with NOT gate output, solenoid and IN6 connects with ground.

      Fig 11: 6 Channel DC 5V Relay Module

   8. Five Load (Operating Devices)

   Five loads are two fan, two light and a door (in figure 12 provides respectively one door, one fan and one light). Two light and fan connect with individual channel of relay module and the door connects with solenoid & servo motor, finally each loads connect with ground (common).

   Fig 12: Five Load (two door, two fan and one light)

6. WORKING PRINCIPLE
