在現今科技的帶領之下,網際網路快速的發展,家中的電器漸漸地具備了連上網路的能力,使得數位資訊的生活慢慢的進入了你我的生活中,而在家庭數位化的過程中,一個整合家中各類家電資訊的家用閘道器(Home Gateway)是必要的,家中各種電器都將透過它來互相溝通。配合著目前全球的趨勢,減少二氧化碳的排放會是日漸增加的需求,所以藉由家用閘道器來管理家庭中各個家電消耗的電能會是個好方法。對於家中的電器來說,使用的目的及耗電量都不盡相同,而且在待機的時候也會消耗少許電能,這些多消耗的電能長久累積下來也會是筆不小的開銷。本文以OSGi 為基礎,將LonWorks 技術整合至家用閘道器上,並且開發電能管理的介面,用以替目前家中電器節省多餘的電能消耗。
By evolution of latest technology, the electric appliances in a family are getting wiser. This result also makes people feel more comfortable about their daily life. In the progress of converting to digital life, a home gateway that manages all kinds of electric appliances is indispensable to common family. The main purpose of home gateway is to gather and integrate information of home appliances. Because of globe warming issue, reduce carbon dioxide emission is going to be more and more important. Therefore, control energy consumption via home gateway is a usable choice. No matter what kind of appliance in family, their energy consumption is different. Moreover, most of appliances would consume a little energy in standby mode. This additional energy is expected to be reduced because it would be a huge cost if we don’t face this problem. In this thesis, we integrate the home gateway with energy management system using OSGi and LonWorks technology.
