Faheem Hussain Wani, Tarana Afrin Chandel . The Low Cost Remote Control for Electrical Appliances using AT89S51. International Journal of Computer Applications. 138, 1 ( March 2016), 28-32. DOI=10.5120/ijca2016908677
This paper demonstrates a novel method for switching ON/OFF the electrical appliances remotely from anywhere in the world. The method demonstrated in this paper uses a Microcontroller based system to control the devices connected through it by sending a text message. The GSM Modem acts as a trans-receiver for receiving the commands and sending the completion report. The GSM Modem is configured by the AT Commands to send/receive text messages and to communicate with the Microprocessor. The components used in this method cost very low, so this method is quite affordable.
