Abstract:
As the applications for remote control or remote monitoring grow, demands for adding internet connectivity to home appliances have also been increasing. To achieve this goal home devices have to equipped with network access interface or connected wire or wireless to a web server economically and without increasing the overall size of the device.
This paper presents an approach to building an embedded web server with a SoC platform to remote control and monitor home devices via internet network. The main benefits of this approach include its lightweight design, automatic online configuration and user-friendly interface. The web server was designed using a powerful 8-bit microprocessor with embedded 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet MAC/PHY on a single chip, which provides a very small form factor solution to enable embedded system very compact, low power, high performance yet low cost. Existing software modules provided by this microcontroller enables easy and quickly implementation of network protocols. The validity of the approach has been verified on a network working with real appliances.
