With the popularity of smart homes, users will pay more and more attention to the hardware and software of products when purchasing smart products, such as performance, appearance design, and operation.
Communication has become a point of great concern to users in smart homes. With the improvement of communication technology, communication methods are becoming more and more complex and diverse. Gradually wireless communication has replaced wired communication.
The smart home market is so huge that different smart home product brands may have different wireless communication methods. This article will give users an understanding of what wireless communications are in smart homes.
Three types of wireless communication
1. Bluetooth
Bluetooth technology is a wireless communication technology, and it is based on a low-cost, short-range wireless connection, a unique wireless communication technology to establish a communication environment for fixed and mobile devices. It can be connected to the Internet over short distances to form a Personal Area Network (PAN).
2. Zigbee
ZigBee is a wireless communication protocol for low-speed and short-distance transmission. The bottom layer is the media access and physical layers that adopt the IEEE 802.15.4 standard specification. The main features are low speed, low power consumption, and low cost. It is usually used in home automation, such as RGBW Floor Lamp, Smart Led Garden Light, Resilient Smart Wall Switch, Tuya Pir Human Motion Sensors, and others.
Zigbee's low complexity, speed, reliability, and security advantages have become the choice of most smart home products.
3. Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is a wireless local area network communication technology created in the IEEE 802.11 standard, usually used for local area networks and Internet access of digital devices that allow nearby devices to exchange data through radio waves.
Many products, such as personal computers, game consoles, smartphones, and laptops, are generally connected to WIFI and the Internet through a wireless router. Today, WIFI is also widely used in smart home systems.
The Role of wireless communication in the smart home
1. Security protection
The current smart home system has realized the user's remote query information and the reception of control signals. The communication and interaction between the wireless communication and the user will complete the activation of the relevant emergency measures under the preset instructions.
After discovering a water leak, the Survey Water Level Meter Sensor at home will automatically send information to the owner through the wireless communication device.
Smart WIFI PIR Motion Sensor can also detect whether a stranger has invaded the home, and the homeowner can choose whether to call the police through remote monitoring.
2. Remote control
After the completion of smart devices entering the network, users can check whether the smart lights at home, such as RGB Ceiling Lights, Tuya Smart Neon Lights, Brilliant Rgb Downlight and Outdoor Smart String Lights, have forgotten to turn off through Smart Camera&Nvr Sets.
3. Precise monitoring
The use and consumption data of each smart device will be stored in the cloud, and the system will accurately calculate its consumption cost.
The wireless communication technology helps the device complete the connection with the smart home system in time through the reception of information to realize security protection, remote control and precise monitoring of the user's home situation. The advancement of 5G technology and artificial intelligence integration makes the future of smart home wireless communication promising.
