A comparative study of the implementations design for smart homes/smart phones systems

Actually many people are adopting smart home technology to improve their home comfort and their quality of life. But despite the diverse of technology components, choosing the right one can be confusing. This paper presents a comparative study of the main components of a Smart Home/smartphone systems such as communicative protocols (Blethoot, Wi-fi, Zigbee and UWB), microcontrollers (Arduion and Raspberry Pi) and devices. Also it describes their main characteristics and performances like power consumption, transmission time, and complexity.
