Abstract:
This paper describes an approach to use the embedded system Raspberry Pi to serve as a communication gateway between mobile devices and Konnex-Bus (KNX) home automation systems. The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and the Presence Service are used to build a system concept on open source and standardized software services. The concept focuses on the communication, access control and security of that gateway. This paper manifests the possible components and potential purposes of the concept. It is shown that small embedded systems like the Pi can provide a simple and cheap solution to enable ubiquitous Smart Home Control using existing infrastructures.
