PROGRESS 6 : OBJECTIVE & BENEFIT/CONTRIBUTIONS

OBJECTIVE

The main objective of this project is to find out the daily electricity consumption through mobile phone. In addition, there have other objectives related to each other as shown below:

1. To know the day-to-day use of electricity.
2. To curb the problem forgotten symptom.
3. To conserve electricity bills.

BENEFIT/CONTRIBUTIONS

Benefit / contribution to use GSM Network:

1. Code transmission speed with 2G speed.
2. Can send conditions in the distance.
3. Can save the data in the mobile phone.

SAFETY

This design meets the requirement of safety. Additionally, the design itself was under automatic controller. This design uses no crossing linkages which could lead to user injury. The care is taken in the manufacturing process to ensure there were no sharp edges or protrusions that could be dangerous. However, this design also just under lower consumption voltage.

MECHANISM FUNCTIONALITY 

The design is fully powered by the AC supply . Also the function it will run automatically when switch was ‘ON’, and doesn't need heavy components to carry, just mobile phone. 

PROGRESS 5 : METHODOLOGY

BLOCK DIAGRAM

The following is an experiment to find out about turnover frequency waves. How the electricity consumption can be known or seen in mobile phone through GSM system. In everyday life, we are using electricity no matter daytime or at night. So with this system we can find out how much electricity a day in our homes. Now, the simpler explanation is when switch 'ON', the PIC program will start count the time has set and will send the electricity is being used to GSM. After that, the GSM will send the signal to the mobile phone or computer by SMS.

PROGRESS 4 : RESEARCH ON GROUP SPECIAL MOBILE (GSM)

I made another study on my project. I was searching the information on the GSM Network System that will be used in my project system. Here was some information gather in my finding:

     Global System Mobile (GSM) is a digital telephone system that digitizes and compresses data to help improve the speed of wireless mobile when communicating internationally. Now in our lives, we may not be aware of this GSM used. But this GSM used is very important so that every time we used it. With GSM Network system, we are able to communicate with each other. Here what I try to do is, I will set or program the data into GSM. Then GSM will receive data from sensor and then the GSM will send the data to handphone or Laptop.

PROGRESS 3 : INTRODUCTION

Before I get started with this project, I had done some researches about the Monitoring system using " GSM Network " to get overview for more understanding.

What is GSM Network?

     GSM (Global System Mobile), is a standard set developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) to describe protocols for second generation (2G) digital celular network used by mobile phones. It became the factor global standard for mobile communications with over 80% market share. The GSM standard was developed as a replacement for first generation (1G) analog cellular networks, and originally described a digital, circuit-switched network optimized for full duplex voice telephony. This was expanded over time to include data communications, first by circuit-switched transport, then packet data transport via GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) and EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution or EGPRS). Further improvements were made when the 3GPP developed third generation (3G) UMTS standards followed by fourth generation (4G) LTE Advanced standards.

THE PROPOSAL

Making the Proposal     To meet the FYP requirement, I need to make a proposal for my project. The contains need for completing the proposal are an abstract, an introduction, the objectives, benefits, literature review, methodology, work plan and the budget. I need to complete this proposal in the prescribed time.
