Zigbee Positioning System for Smart Home Application

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4743))

Abstract

This paper presents a smart home system prototype which employs an indoor positioning system called the Best Beacon Match (BBM) positioning method to intelligently trigger the appropriately services for the home members. To overcome the ninja problem in the BBM method, the signal filtering, adjustment and smooth procedures are proposed. We employ the Zigbee module to implement the prototypes of the components for the BBM positioning method, and the prototypes were pass the ZigBee Compliant Platform (ZCP) certification test. The proposed system prototype which intelligently controls the air condition and light system for smart home applications is also verifying in our demo room and in the smart house in National Taiwan University.
