A Prototype Air Flow Control System for Home Automation Using MQTT Over Websocket in AWS IoT Core

Abstract

Amazon Web Services have recently developed their IoT platform, AWS IoT Core, which integrates all the necessary functions required for developing an IoT system. Our objective in this paper is to explore some of those functions and their integration in our designed project. In light of this, we develop and present a prototype air flow control system for home automation using AWS IoT Core and MQTT protocol over Websocket server. The advantages obtained in the choice of modules, communication protocols and services are explained in depth. System architecture, its implementation and performance analysis are also presented.
