Motivation

To gain more experience in the wireless sensor network field.

To employ wireless sensor network for the benefits of users (students and visitors to NCTU buildings).

Introduction

What is a smart building?- Smart building system gives

information for the users about each element inside the building by using wireless sensor networks.

- RFID readers and tags are also used to achieve this goal.

- A tag is attached near each object in the building.

…Introduction

Smart building data: - Offices: office’s name, professor’s

name, professor’s schedule, publications and others.

- Class rooms: class room schedule and other information.

- Laboratories: lab’s name, lab’s members, researches and others.

- Advertising boards: advertisements sorted by date.

Scenario

A visitor to engineering building 3 in NCTU.

He approaches lab 633 with his notebook opened and browsing smart building website.

A tag attached near the lab will send lab id to RFID reader with the notebook.

The note book will request the related webpage about the lab from the server.

Then display the information.

Scenario – Cont.

A mote sensing environmental data (ie. Lighting, Sounding) as long as detecting people in the room.

The mote updates its sensing data to database server periodically.

The web server requests for latest data from database server, whenever a user ask for displaying web pages.

Requirements

User requirements : - A note book computer with RFID

reader. - An internet browser. - The user must be able to browse the

system web site and view the required information.

…Requirements

System requirements: - A server to store the web pages (http

server) - RFID tags. - A wireless network. - A library or API to support the RFID. - Other non-functional requirements such

as user friendly interface and security.

System Design

System is designed as the following: - Using Visual studio.net inherited with RFID

library to: * Retrieve ID value from the reader * Allow write new ID value to the RFID tag * Design the web pages and the interface.

System Design – Cont.

- Using PHP/SQL to: Display web page dynamically Access database from web page Design administration zone through web

page- Using Java/SQL to:

Retrieve sensing data from mote to PC Upload sensing data from PC to database

server

Schema Installing all requirements (frameworks

and libraries). Doing experiments on RFID; writing to

and reading from the tag. Collecting information about the

engineering building 3. Building the web pages for every

element. Building the HTTP server. Integrate the whole system.

Specific Applications

Power Saving Meeting Room Allocation

CONCLUSION

A virtual voyage throughout the Engineering Building #3.

Anticipate the needs of the building users to provide improved comfort, greater user control, and better energy efficiency.

Robust and Flexible for further enhancements

User-friendly system

This Project could be extended to all the Buildings in the NCTU campus.

The performance and efficiency could be enhanced by using High quality RFID devices and advanced readers.

Using PDA’s instead of laptops and could be a more compact version
