Study on architecture of smart home management system and key devices

The architecture of smart home management system and key devices are studied according to the specifications on smart home gateway, socket and terminal issued by State power grid corp. in Nov. 30th, 2011, and smart home gateway, smart jack and smart terminal software are developed. Several communication technologies are used, including Zigbee, used to acquire data of wireless sensor network; TCP, used for video monitor; DALI, used to control lamps; Modbus, used to operate actuators, Wi-Fi, used between the terminal device and the gateway; as well as SOAP used for web services. The architecture and devices developed in this paper work well, and satisfy the needs of smart home management.
