Abstract: The study and implementation of home automation technology using Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) to control home appliances such as lighting loads, air conditional systems, and security systems via Short Message Service (SMS) is presented in this paper. The proposed research work is focused on functionality of the GSM protocol, which allows the user to control the target system away from residence using the frequency bandwidths. The concept of serial communication and ATmega-commands has been applied towards development of the smart GSM-based home automation system. Home owners will be able to receive feedback status of any home appliances under control whether switched on or off remotely from their mobile phones. Arduino with the integration of GSM module provides the smart automated house system. This system is intended to help and give help to satisfy the needs of the elderly and the handicapped at houses. Additionally, the idea of home automation system will improve the normal living status at houses. The fundamental control system uses GSM wireless communication for controlling home appliances. The system design does not remove the existing electrical switches and gives a safer control over the switches with low voltage usage technique. This system is designed to control electrical devices throughout the house with ease of installing it, ease of use and cost effective design and implement.
