I. INTRODUCTION
Smart Home is technology to make a house to become
intelligent and automated. Usually, that technology has
automation systems for lighting, temperature control, security
and many other functions [1]. According to Robles and Kim
[2], Smart Home is the term for determining residence using
the control system to integrate home automation system. The
system allows integrating electronic devices controller with
only a few buttons that are connected with the simple
telecommunications system. Smart Home includes
communications, entertainment, security, convenience, and
information systems [3].There are several terms that are
commensurate with the Smart Home such as: Home
Automation, Intelligent Building or Home Networking.
Since it was first formally introduced by the American
Association of House Builders [4], Smart Home drives a lot of
research to develop performance, types of controlled
equipment and telecommunications systems more reliable.
Several studies in the field of Smart Home are as follows.
Khiyal Khan, and Shehzadi [5] focused on controlling
household appliances to provide security against tampering
and provide security when the user is away from the place.
The system is SMS based and uses wireless technology. Kaur
3. [6] designed a microcontroller-based Home Automation
System which focuses on security that includes password-
based locking system, counter-dependent automatic switching
system of room, temperature controlled cooling system, saving
light systems, fire and smoke sensors. ElShafee and Hamed
[7] presents a new design and prototype implementation of a
Home Automation System that uses WiFi technology as a
network infrastructure that connects its parts. The proposed
system consists of two main parts. The first part is the server
which presents the core systems that manage, control, and
monitors the user's home. The second part is a hardware
interface module. Jin [8] designed and implemented a
simulation model of a simple network that is characterized by
a network Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS) and a
combination of Zig Bee / IEEE 802.15.4 and Home Plug C &
C on Network Simulator Version 2 (NS-2) that supports
multiple interfaces / channel. Hamed [9] using Lab View
software to monitor temperature, humidity, lighting, fire and
burglar alarms, gas density from the house and has an infrared
sensor to guarantee the security of the family. This system also
has an internet connection to monitor and control the home
appliances from anywhere in the world. This approach
combines hardware and software technologies. Schaefer and
Kays [10] focus on a system, which utilizes good channels and
avoids unnecessary overhead, but at the same time is able to
use alternative channels in case of a deep fades. The optimal
number of channels for the 2.4 GHz range is identified.
Unfortunately, smart home technology is very few adopted
in Indonesia. Most are adopted in apartments, residential, and
luxury homes. This is because it is very expensive to adopt
smart home i.e. for complex telecommunications and control
systems and some equipment that are not available in the
market. This paper offers a small smart home system to
address problems above. The small smart home systems is
4. designed with the Arduino microcontroller-based with WLAN
systems, which is able to monitor and control lights, room
temperature, alarms for detecting suspicious movements, and
other household appliances.
After briefly describing the smart home, the next section
of this paper is to discuss design process and parts of the
system designed. Several experiments were conducted to test
the performance of the system. Finally, this paper will be
closed with the conclusion.

II. SYSTEM DESIGN
The system was designed by having several blocks,
namely: input/output block, the microcontroller block,
networking block and controlling/monitoring devices block.
The whole system can be seen in Fig. 1. Detailed explanations
of each block are as follows.
INPUT / OUTPUT
MIKRONTROLLER
NETWORKING
MONITORING /
CONTROL DEVICE
5. Fig. 1. Block Diagram of Proposed System
A. Input/Output Block
Input/output block consists of two pieces of PIR (Passive
Infra-Red) motion sensor and an LM35 temperature sensor as
inputs and some lamps, sockets, relay and buzzer as outputs.
PIR sensor is used to detect the presence of motion. The
sensor readings are used to turn off the lights if there is no
activity and turn on the lights otherwise. In addition, this
sensor is also used for security systems to detect suspicious
movements. If it detects any suspicious movement an alarm
(buzzer) will sound. An LM35 is functioning as temperature
monitoring. This sensor also serves as an input in order to
execute some sockets. The socket will in on condition when
the temperature exceeds a certain limit. This condition will
activate a fan or Air Condition (AC) while connected to the
socket. Connection circuit between microcontroller system
with a PIR sensor and an LM35 sensor is shown in Fig. 2 and
Fig. 3.
Fig. 2. Connection Circuit of PIR Sensor
Fig. 3. Connection Circuit of LM35 Sensor
Output part consists of the relays and buzzer. Buzzer
serves as a warning alarm when there is suspicious movement.
Relays connected with lamps and socket. Relay circuit is
shown in Fig. 4.
6. Fig. 4. Relay Circuit
B. System Microcontroller
The second block is a microcontroller system that serves as
the center of all systems and regulates all activities of the
input/output system. The system used in this paper is Arduino.
Arduino is a system that uses ATMega 328 as its
microcontroller. Arduino consists of an Arduino Board as
hardware part and an IDE (Integrated Development
Environment) that used C-like as its software language. All
devices form input/output and networking block are connected
to this. The Arduino system is depicted in Fig.5.

and Informatics Seminar (EECCIS)

C. Network Block
The third is network block that consists of an Ethernet part
and a wireless router device. An Arduino Ethernet Shield is
used to connect the Arduino board to the Internet via 3G/4G
Wireless Router. Arduino Ethernet Shield is made based on
the Wiznet W5100 Ethernet chip which provides the ability to
network with TCP and UDP. Ethernet shield is shown in Fig.
6.
7. Fig. 6. Arduino Ethernet Shield
D. Monitoring/Controlling Device
The last block is monitoring/controlling that consists of
any devices such as: HP, tablet, laptop or PC. These devices
connected to LAN or WLAN via network block using HTML5
with two-way communication. The situation and conditions of
home based on the sensor readings sent to the monitoring
device every two seconds. Status of the equipment that
monitored and controlled will be seen in the monitoring
device. While the monitoring device able to control appliances
at home at any time.
E. Smart Home Designed
Fig. 7 shows the implementation of Smart Home designed.
It can be seen that the system has four lamps, two PIR sensors,
an LM35 temperature sensor, two sockets and buzzer. All
equipment’s placed in each planned place. A scenario has been
designed to control all equipment’s. This scenario then was
written in C-like Arduino language.

III. EXPERIMENT RESULTS
A small smart home system has been designed. All of
equipment needed, Arduino microcontroller system and
network devices connected as planned. Fig. 8 shows prototype
small smart home system.

Web monitor display to know any status of home condition
is shown in Fig. 9. Based on this figure, it can be seen there
are 4 pieces button: the first and second buttons are used to
control lights, the third button is used to activate the socket,
while the fourth button is used to update the temperature
automatically. Below the button status, monitor shows room

well. Generally, HP web monitor display is the same as in
laptop.

With this software, all existing packages in network can be
displayed. Based on network analysis result that captured it
shows that there are good communication between home
equipment and monitoring device. Fig. 10 shows network
analysis result that captured while first button is pressed.
Fig. 10. Network Analysis
This paper demonstrates that the Small Smart Home
System via WLAN network has been successfully designed.
System is able to work properly, all equipment can be
controlled via the internet with reliably and results can be
12. displayed and controlled by multi-type devices perfectly. The
performance of the communication system works well,
although it is highly dependent on the internet provider.
