Cellular Phone Communication
Technologies Considered

Tone Decoding (DTMF) Features






Text Messaging (SMS) Features


6
High Compatibility with all cell phone models
Limited user interaction
More prone to user error (uneditable)
Inefficient, time consuming
Additional hardware required (convert sound to binary)
Data transmitted in binary form (ASCII)
Message can be edited prior to sending
May0613 - A Cell Phone-Based
Remote Home Control System
Cellular Phone Communication
Technology Selected: Text Messaging
Reasons for Selection:
 Allows user to verify and edit the message before
sending to ensure the command issued is the
command requested
 Data is transmitted in binary, requires less hardware
to manipulate (as opposed to DTMF)
 Most commonly used in M2M technology

Text Message Implementation


Users will be provided with a list of pre-defined
commands that can be stored into the cellular phone
Users will then have to enter or issue the commands
from the cellular phone defined by the command list
Example – “command : PASSWORD”

Software Development Environment
The code for this project will be developed in a
more user friendly environment than AVR
Studio (provided with the STK300)
Possible Solutions:
 Eclipse v3.1
 MS Visual Studio .NET 2003
21

Software Development Environment

Eclipse v3.1
–

Free, but requires some setup for team
MS Visual Studio .NET 2003
–
Free through MSDNAA (available to all ECE)
Both are similar in their advantages. Since the
.c files will be copied into the STK300’s
compiler, decision was made to go with
Visual Studio .NET
