Introduction
Remote control gadgets are gadgets that send carefully
coded heartbeats to control capacities like force,
volume, tuning, temperature setpoint, fan speed, just to
give some examples, to control distinctive equipment.
These gadgets are normally little remote handheld articles with an
exhibit for different flexible setting catches for the TV
station, track number, and volume. For some gadgets,
the remote control contains all the capacity controls
while the controlled gadget itself has just a bunch of
basic essential controls. The previous remote controls
utilized ultrasonic tones. The remote control has
ceaselessly developed and progressed over ongoing years to incorporate Infrared (IR), Radio recurrence, Bluetooth availability, movement sensor empowered abilities, voice control. IR remote control
has been ended up being the most mainstream
hardware for office applications, for instance, control of forced air
system, turn on or switch off the light just as the typical utilization of satellite recipients and Televisions. Right now, executing the utilization of different advances consolidating security, a remote control framework
that utilizes the radio recurrence innovation is created.
1.1. Foundation of Remote Control Switching Device
Most homes utilize numerous electrical and hardware
apparatuses, for example, the TV, standing fan, roof fan,
air conditioner, lighting bulbs, video players, radio, and
so forth. All these apparatuses expect to change to kill on
and turn these apparatuses generally. This manual
exchanging of any home apparatus is a badly designed technique
for genuinely incapacitated or old or in any event, for
the youthful and occupied people when incessant exchanging
activity is required. Consequently, a simpler strategy
for exchanging is created to supplant this manual exchanging
technique, utilizing a propelled exchanging strategy for
electronic home apparatuses. The early wired remotes
made it feasible for clients to control apparatuses a good way
off, however, the wired remote additionally restricted the
client’s versatility by either tying or stumbling the
clients. On the off chance that the client ran the remote
control’s string under the floor coverings and furniture,
viably tying down the gadget to one area in the room, the
remote consequently constrains the opportunity of
development for which it was intended to give. Be that as
it may, if the string is forgotten about in the open, the clients may
bumble over it. The remote control fathomed every one
of these difficulties of the wired remote control and
viably assumes responsibility for the family unit. The
use of remote to restore order to the household, changes
lifestyle; brings multi-function and multi-platform lives
easy. Various technologies have evolved in the past:
controlled by radio waves; used to execute commands
transmitted by electromagnetic waves; and also the use
of battery-operated low-frequency radio transmitter
remote control for consumer electronics. The idea for an
electronic remote control, which worked wirelessly by
shining a beam of light onto a photoelectric cell, came
up in the United State in 1955 [3, 4]. Advancement in
remote control kept going till recent days where many
technologies such as infrared, radio frequency,
Bluetooth, Global System for Mobile (GSM)
communications control are used for remote control.
The major technology used in home remote controls is
infrared (IR) light [2]. The signal between a remote
control handset and the device that it controls consists
of pulses of infrared light, which is invisible to the
human eye, but can be seen through a digital camera,
video camera or a phone camera. The transmitter in the remote
control handset sends out a stream of pulses of infrared
light when the user presses a button on the handset. A
transmitter is often a light emitting diode (LED) which is
built into the pointing end of the remote control handset.
The infrared light pulses form a pattern unique to that
button. The receiver in the device recognizes the pattern
and causes the device to respond accordingly. Radio
Frequency (RF) remote control is used to control distant
objects using a variety of radio signals transmitted by the
remote control device. As a complementary method to
infrared remote controls, the radio remote control was
used with an electric garage door or gate openers, automatic
barrier systems, burglar alarms (for security and also for restriction of the use of household appliances) and industrial automation
systems.The importance and benefit of remote control
for household applications using radio frequency
technology varies: This paper is confined to the use of Radio Frequency (RF) technology in switching to control household appliances
which involves: switches to send signal to the receiver
circuit using RF technology. receives a signal from the
transmitter circuit via RF technology then acts
to switch on or off a household.
2. Remote control Technologies
Years ago some remote control made use of wires, but
modern remote control now works based on wireless
communication. This allows information to be
exchanged between two devices without the use of wire
or cable. There are various technologies that can be
used for developing wireless remote control for
household application. Each technology has its own merits and
limitations. Various works have been done by different people on different remote control.
2.1. Infrared Control
The prevailing remote-control innovation in the home
applications are the infrared (IR), otherwise called
“heat”. The fundamental reason at work in an IR remote
control is the utilization of light to convey flags between
the remote control and the gadget it is coordinating.
Infrared light is in the undetectable segment of the
electromagnetic range [2-4]. Infrared remote control for
home apparatuses works dependent on innovation like
the Television remote activity. Infrared radiation is the
locale of the electromagnetic range among microwaves
and noticeable light. In infrared correspondence, an LED
transmits the infrared sign as eruptions of non unmistakable light. At the less than desirable end, a photodiode or photoreceptor distinguishes and catches the light heartbeats, which are then handled to recover
the data contained. An Infrared remote control transmitter conveys beats of infrared light that speak to explicit parallel codes These twofold codes compare to directions, for example, Power ON or Power OFF. The
collector gets the sign and the chip does the comparing
order. The infrared collector sits on the facade of the
gadget where can undoubtedly get the approaching sign
from the remote control. In an infrared remote, when a
press button is squeezed, the coordinated circuit
recognizes it and sends the twofold order to the LED at
the front of the remote signals between remote control
and the gadget it is coordinating. Infrared light is in the
undetectable segment of the electromagnetic range [2-4].
Infrared remote control for home machines works
dependent on innovation like the Television remote
activity. Infrared radiation is the district of the
electromagnetic range among microwaves and
unmistakable light. In infrared correspondence, an LED transmits the infrared sign as eruptions of non-noticeable
light. At the less than desirable end, a photodiode or
photoreceptor identifies and catches the light heartbeats,
which are then prepared to recover the data contained.
An Infrared remote control transmitter conveys beats of
infrared light that speak to explicit paired codes. These
parallel codes relate to directions, for example, Power
ON or Power OFF. The collector gets the sign and the
microchip does the relating direction. The infrared
recipient sits on the facade of the gadget where can
without much of a stretch get the approaching sign from
the remote control. In an infrared remote, when a press
button is squeezed, the coordinated circuit identifies it
and sends the paired order to the LED at the front of the
remote. The transmitter circuit comprises the force
supply which is typically a battery providing the
necessary voltage for the encoder and the IR transmitter.
There is the encoder that encodes the data got from the
switches and afterward produces an adjusted sign which
is sent to the transmitter. This encoder can be an
Integrated Circuit (IC) 555 clock which goes about as an
actable multi-vibrator whose yield makes the IR
transmitter be in a high state and produce the infrared
pillar through the sunken focal point of the IR LED [6].
This infrared pillar created from the infrared LED goes
in a straight way is then transmitted to the collector
circuit. The beneficiary circuit comprises the force
supply, the infrared recipient, the decoder, the transfer
driver and the hand-off, and this interfaces the apparatus
controlled to the mains power supply. The power supply
of the receiver circuit is usually connected from the
mains through rectification as the circuitry uses DC
voltage. The infrared receiver is a photodiode which is
usually the IC’s (TSOP 1738 or TSOP 1740), whose
output is high when idle and goes low when it receives a
signal. The received signal is transmitted to the decoder
or demodulator which demodulates the frequency of the signal and activates the relay driver which triggers the
relay to be activated or deactivated. The activation and
deactivation of the relay brings about a switching
operation which turns on or turn off the connected
appliance. The infrared remote control has the
performance of the high signal to noise ratio, strong anti interference, reliable transmission of information, and untouchable, low power and affordable. This remote is also use for industrial control, aerospace, security, and so on. The disadvantages of using infrared includes:
being limited to line of sight; the transmitters and
receivers must be almost directly aligned (that is, able to
see each other) to communicate. It is easily blocked by
materials such as people, walls, and plants and has short
range; as a result, its performance drops off with longer distances. It is light and weather-sensitive; direct sunlight, rain, fog, dust, pollution can affect
transmission. The data rate transmission is lower than
the typical wired transmission.
3. Working of Remote Control Circuit
The SPDT transfer is an electromagnetic gadget and is
utilized to control high current gadgets. TSOP 1738 is an
IR recipient that can get IR of recurrence 38kHz and can
peruse signals from IR remote. SMPS power supply is
utilized as a voltage controller rather than that SMPS
portable charger can be utilized or 7805 voltage
controller IC can likewise be utilized. TSOP and 7474
are worked in 5 v dc current stock. The yield of the
TSOP is 5v yet when the IR beam strikes the yield at
TSOP becomes, it turns out to be low.
Diode Df is a freewheeling diode scattering the Stored
vitality in the inductor load. It is giving the smooth
working of the circuit 555 IC going about as a
Monostable multivibrator. At the point when the voltage
at the second goes underneath 1/3, Vcc yield changes to
High 5v for the time T=1. After the time interim yield
comes back to 0V once more. The D flip failure 7474 is
wired as switch Mode that is Q’ to D input. 555 utilized
as clock generator to the flipflop.
Yield of 7474 is sustained to base terminal of BC
187 which is driver transistor, when it’s base voltage, high
ebb and flow will course through the heap Here hand-off
is the heap and it will stimulate just when the base voltage
of BC 187 is high and interface 230 V AC supply to the
bulb or light.
4. Implementation of the circuit on a breadboard
Implementation of the circuit on a temporary board is to
clarify purposes and testing components reliability and
functionality. The project design was carried out on a
bread board to ensure proper connection for testing as shown in fig 2
On the temporary project board, signals sent through the
transmitter by pressing push buttons on the board were
transmitted to the receiver and the action caused the
switching on and off of a component connected at the
output section of the receiver. The result from test-running
the circuit on the bread board was positive.
5. Analysis and Results
When the transmitter is powered, a voltage of 5volts is
impressed on the pins 11, 12, 13, 1 and 2 of the IC74147.
With the resistors (1 kΩ each) in series to these pins, a
current of 5 mA flows through each of these pins. When
the button to a pin is pressed, a zero voltage (0 volts) is impressed to the pin and no current flows through the pin of the IC. This leads to series of signal processing within the circuit
6. Conclusion
Remote control is very important in household
application, it brings about comfort when controlling and
operating household appliances. It makes life easy while
trying to make switching operation of appliances. In this
work, the design and construction of a remote control for
household application has been achieved. A transmitter
system (the handheld remote), which comprises of
encoder, multiplexer, RF module, push buttons, etc. has
been developed which when operated, sends a signal to the
receiver system. This receiver system receives and
processes the signal from the transmitter, then turn ON or
turns OFF an appliance. The receiver system which
comprises of decoder, de-multiplexer, flipflops, transistor,
relays etc. has also been developed which when receiving
signal from the transmitter processes of the signal, switches ON or switches OFF a load.
