Study of temperature control using cyber-physical system approach in home environment

Technology advances allow us to design smart home system for the purpose to achieve high demand on occupants’ comfort. In this research, we focus on the temperature control to build a thermal comfort controller for the existing hybrid temperature control (HTC) system, which is based on the cyber-physical system (CPS) approach. By using air-conditioner, window and curtain, our proposed controller can acquire the desired temperature under the high energy efficiency. Through the raw data from experiments, we evaluate and verify our proposed controller in the cyber-physical home system environment by using MATLAB/Simulink tool
