1.1 System Description
The system used in this home automation is as follow;
Figure 1. Block diagram

As we see from the diagram the Arduino plays the main function of microcontroller in the system. Arduino controls the
mobile app and Bluetooth module. The Arduino NANO hosts the C++ programming Scripts whichprovidestheuser toaccess
all home appliances. The programming script is thecore of this system which carries a key rolein processing all instructions
with theArduino NANO module. An ad-hoc communication protocol is set up between two devices, which allow controlling
the behavior of the Arduino and BT board/module. Wireless serialcommunication is supported by the Arduino NANO over
Bluetooth [5]. Overall this home automation system consists of the following major parts:
A. ARDUINO NANO
The Arduino Nano is a small, complete, and breadboard-friendly board based on the ATmega328 (Arduino Nano 3.x). It has
more or less the same functionality of the Arduino Duemilanove, but in a different package.Itlacksonlya DCpowerjack,and
works with a Mini-B USB cable instead of a standard one.
B. BLUETOOTH (HC-05) MODULE
Bluetooth (HC-05) Module The medium between thesystemandtheAndroidmobileappforcommunicationisthe Bluetooth.
It plays the role of the wireless medium in the system. This connects the Arduino signal to the mobile app as Arduino has
programming within it. It works within a limited range, but its ranges can be increased.
C. RELAY MODULE

Relay Module As the block diagram shows the AC supply of all appliances is across the relay module with acts as an
electrically operated switch.
D. ANDROID MOBILE APP
A mobile app is used to operate all appliances. In the app, just simple touch can turn to switch off/onyourall appliancefrom
anywhere in the home.
1.2 SIMULATION METHODOLOGY
Figure 2. Simulation methodalogy
In simulation design, all the major components are placed so that the working and processing of the system can be observed
before implementing the hardware. The result of the simulation design was up to the mark that system works with high
accuracy and high execution speed. The Arduino IDE can easily bedownloadedfromthe official websiteof theArduino.Arduino

to the loads with help of relay module system has a four- channel relay module and all the loads are parallel connected.
After all the connections the process of the simulation was executed and finally observed that the system id working
accurately and correctly without any errors. The android application receives command intwowaysfirstlyclickingthebutton
and secondly voice command. These commands are carried by the Bluetooth module toward the Arduino for further
processing.
2. HARDWARE DESIGN
Figure 3. Hardware Design
In a hardware implementation, Arduino NANO is placed as a microcontroller to control the hardware. On the Nano board, 22
pins are associated with input and output. In that 14 pins (D0 to D13) are true digital IO pins, which can be configured as per

you application using pinMode(), digitalWrite() and digitalRead() functions. [6]. Arduino does not carry any wireless
connection within it that is why we use Bluetooth module Hc-05 for wireless communication. Bluetooth device is used for
communication between Smartphone application and Arduino NANO. The relay Module is controlled by the Arduino which
receives the command from the Smartphone application and processes the received command. The relay Module is used as
electrical switches in the system. Our system has four relay channels for different loads. The design of the hardware of our
sampled home automation system is as follows:
Hardware design Hardware implementation consists of the following:
• Arduino NANO
• Bluetooth Module HC-05
• 4Channel Relay Module (9V)
• Power supply, Loads(watt savers) and connection wires, etc
• 9v Battery or 9v adapter
• Jumper wires

This interface makes the system a perfect choice forbotholdandnewhouses.Thefuturesystemwouldbemodifiedtoasystem
remotely via IoT technology and cloud. Wi-Fi technology can be a good replacement for Bluetooth technology to maximize the
range and speed.[3] For the control and monitor virtually all the electrical devices GSM technology would be used easily in the
system with a small modification. The system can be madeadvanced by using different sensors like light sensors(LDR),motion
sensors (PIR sensor), and also various temperature sensors, based on the condition that provides toggling of devices

automatically. By using these all there would be more comfortable and energy saved i.e., turning off lights if not necessary and
checking the brightness required by Light sensor and themotion sensorlike PIR sensor can be usedtoturnoff/onanyelectrical
devices automaticallyand also can be used for the security.For the safety of homeowners and a greatercontrolsystem,itcanbe
easily integrated closely with the home.
The software app which is installed in the android mobile is modified by implementing other features such as speech
recognition voice control and can be modified by fingerprint access to the app that makes the whole system more secure and
advanced. The major modification step would extend the system to a large-scale environment like industries, factories, and
offices.
