1.0.0 EXISTING SYSTEM:

This Nowadays, electric vehicle (EV) is becoming popular since


the fuel prices becoming more expensive. Due to these scenario, many
vehicle manufacturer looking for alternatives of energy sources other
than gas. The use of electrical energy sources may improve the
environment since there are less pollution. In addition, EV produces
great advantages in terms of energy saving and environmental
protection. Most EVs used rechargeable battery which is lithium ion
battery. It is smaller to be compared with lead acid. In fact, it has a
constant power, and energy’s life cycle is 6 to 10 times greater
compared with lead acid battery. Lithium ion battery life cycle can be
shortened by some reasons such as overcharging and deep discharges.
On the other hand, EV usually has limited range of travelling due to
battery size and body structure. Now, an important reason that limits
the application of EV is the safety of existing battery technology .

For example, overcharging battery not only could significantly


shorten the life of the battery, but also cause a serious safety accidents
such as fire. Therefore, a battery monitoring system for EV that can
notify the user about battery condition is necessary to prevent the
stated problems. Previous battery monitoring system only monitor and
detect the condition of the battery and alarmed the user via battery
indicator inside the vehicle.

1.0.1 PROPOSED SYSTEM:

In the proposed system we try to introduce new IoT Interfaces


to enhance the Longevity and Protection of EV Battery in our project
we are getting real time data . We are introducing this Interfaces in
both conditions of the Electric Vehicle in ON and OFF state .
Here the EV Battery are Protected by the Cooling fans and over
heat of Battery causes to decrease the life of the Battery. Protecting
electric vehicle (EV) batteries through real-time monitoring is
paramount for ensuring the safety and reliability of EVs. By
employing a sophisticated network of sensors and monitoring systems
embedded within the battery pack, manufacturers and operators can
continuously oversee critical parameters such as temperature, voltage,
and state of charge. This real-time data allows for the swift detection
of any anomalies or potential risks, such as overheating or
overcharging, which could lead to battery degradation or even
catastrophic failure. Through advanced analytics and algorithms, the
monitoring system can promptly identify emerging issues and trigger
immediate responses, such as adjusting charging parameters or
initiating emergency protocols to mitigate risks. By proactively
monitoring and managing the battery's performance in real-time,
stakeholders can safeguard against potential safety hazards, extend
battery lifespan, and ensure the long-term viability of electric vehicles
in a rapidly evolving mobility landscape.
The Proposed system give us the details on the Battery
condition in real time and always notify us about the health of battery
which may exhausted or over heated due to either Environmental
parameters or Constant use of the Vehicle. So the proposed work of
this system is to save the life of the vehicle owner due to cause of
Explosion due to Battery.

4.4.3: GSM Module


Introduction
Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) is a
set of ETSI standards specifying the infrastructure for a digital
cellular service. The standard is used in approx. 85 countries in the
world including such locations as Europe, Japan and Australia.

GSM Call Routing

Mobile Subscriber Roaming

When a mobile subscriber roams into a new location area (new


VLR), the VLR automatically determines that it must update the
HLR with the new location information, which it does using an SS7
Location Update Request Message. The Location Update Message
is routed to the HLR through the SS7 network, based on the global
title translation of the IMSI that is stored within the SCCP Called
Party Address portion of the message. The HLR responds with a
message that informs the VLR whether the subscriber should be
provided service in the new location.

Mobile Subscriber ISDN Number (MSISDN) Call Routing


When a user dials a GSM mobile subscriber's MSISDN, the PSTN
routes the call to the Home MSC based on the dialed telephone
number. The MSC must then query the HLR based on the
MSISDN, to attain routing information required to route the call to
the subscribers' current location. The MSC stores global title
translation tables that are used to determine the HLR associated
with the MSISDN. When only one HLR exists, the translation
tables are trivial. When more than one HLR is used however, the
translations become extremely challenging; with one translation
record per subscriber (see the example below). Having determined
the appropriate HLR address, the MSC sends a Routing
Information Request to it.
When the HLR receives the Routing Information Request, it maps
the MSISDN to the IMSI, and ascertains the subscribers' profile
including the current VLR at which the subscriber is registered.
The HLR then queries the VLR for a Mobile Station Roaming
Number (MSRN). The MSRN is essentially an ISDN telephone
number at which the mobile subscriber can currently be reached.
The MSRN is a temporary number that is valid only for the duration
of a single call. The HLR generates a response message, which
includes the MSRN, and sends it back across the SS7 network to
the MSC. Finally, the MSC attempts to complete the call using the
MSRN provided.

4.11 GSM Module Working

GSM Module PinOut:


GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) is a digital
mobile telephone system that is widely used in many parts of the
world. GSM uses a variation of Time Division Multiple Access
(TDMA) and is the most widely used of the three digital wireless
telephone technologies (TDMA, GSM, and CDMA). GSM
digitizes and compresses data, then sends it down a channel with
two other streams of user data, each in its own time slot. GSM
operates in the 900MHz, 1800MHz, or 1900 MHz frequency bands.
GSM has been the backbone of the phenomenal success in mobile
telecoms over the last decade. Now, at the dawn of the era of true
broadband services, GSM continues to evolve to meet new
demands. One of GSM's great strengths is its international roaming
capability, giving consumers a seamless service. This has been a
vital driver in growth, with around 300 million. In the Americas,
today's 7 million subscribers are set to grow rapidly, with market
potential of 500 million in population, due to the introduction of
GSM 800, which allows operators using the 800 MHz band to have
access to GSM technology too.
GSM together with other technologies is part of an evolution of
wireless mobile telecommunication that includes High-Speed
Circuit-Switched Data (HCSD), General Packet Radio System
(GPRS), Enhanced Data GSM Environment (EDGE), and
Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS). GSM
security issues such as theft of service, privacy, and legal
interception continue to raise significant interest in the GSM
community. The purpose of this portal is to raise awareness of these
issues with GSM security.

4.4.5: RELAY
What is Relay?
A relay is an electromechanical switch that operates by using an
electromagnetic coil to control the switching of one or more
electrical circuits. It serves as an interface between low-voltage
control signals, such as those from microcontrollers or digital
logic circuits, and high-voltage or high-current loads, like motors,
lights, or appliances. When a small voltage is applied to the coil,
it generates a magnetic field that attracts a movable armature,
which is mechanically connected to one or more switch contacts.
This magnetic force causes the switch contacts to change position,
either opening or closing an electrical circuit. Relays are crucial in
situations where you need to isolate or protect low-voltage control
systems from high-voltage or high-current loads, making them an
essential component in automation, robotics, industrial control,
and many other applications. They provide a safe and reliable way
to control electrical devices remotely or based on specific
conditions.

Relay Symbol:

Working:
The operation of a relay is based on the principle of electromagnetic
induction and mechanical switching. Inside a typical
electromagnetic relay, there are two main components: an
electromagnetic coil and a set of switch contacts. When an
electrical current flows through the coil, it generates a magnetic
field around it. This magnetic field exerts a force on an armature or
movable iron core, which is connected to a set of switch contacts.
In its default or "de-energized" state, the relay's switch contacts are
open, meaning the electrical circuit they control is not connected.
However, when a sufficient voltage is applied to the coil, it
energizes and generates a magnetic force that attracts the armature.
This attraction causes the armature to move, closing the switch
contacts and completing an electrical circuit.
Conversely, when the coil voltage is removed or reduced below a
certain threshold, the magnetic field dissipates, allowing a spring
or other mechanical mechanism to return the armature to its
original position. This action opens the switch contacts,
interrupting the electrical circuit.
Relays are versatile devices because they can be used to control
high-power or high-voltage circuits with a relatively low-power or
low-voltage control signal. They provide electrical isolation
between the control circuit and the load circuit, making them
valuable for applications where safety, signal protection, or
galvanic separation is crucial. Electromagnetic relays are
commonly used in various industries and applications, including
automotive systems, industrial automation, telecommunications,
and home appliances, to name just a few.

Fig 4.18 SMPS Charger


Working :

The operation of a 12V 1A SMPS (Switched Mode Power Supply)


involves several key steps to convert alternating current (AC) from
a power source into a stable and regulated 12-volt direct current
(DC) output. These power supplies employ high-frequency
switching technology for efficiency and precise voltage control.
Initially, the AC input is passed through a rectifier circuit, which
converts it into unregulated DC voltage. This unregulated voltage
then enters a high-frequency switching stage, typically through a
power semiconductor like a MOSFET. The switching operation
rapidly turns the DC voltage on and off. This generates a high-
frequency AC waveform, which is then fed into a compact
transformer. The transformer steps down or steps up the voltage,
depending on the specific design, while also providing electrical
isolation for safety.
After transforming the voltage, the output is rectified once again to
ensure a stable DC voltage. This output is typically higher than the
desired 12V, so it goes through a voltage regulation stage, using
feedback control to precisely adjust the output voltage. The power
supply monitors the output voltage and adjusts the switching
operation to maintain the desired 12V, even when input voltage or
load conditions change. The result is a regulated and efficient 12V
output, suitable for powering various electronic devices and
applications. These power supplies are known for their energy
efficiency, compact design, and reliability, making them essential
components in the world of electronics and power distribution.
The key working principle of a 12V 1A SMPS power supply
involves three primary stages: rectification, voltage transformation,
and regulation. In the rectification stage, the AC input voltage from
the power source is converted into an unregulated DC voltage. This
unregulated DC voltage is then fed into the switching stage, where
high-frequency switching components like MOSFETs are
employed. The switching operation rapidly turns the voltage on and
off, resulting in a high-frequency AC waveform.
Following this, the high-frequency AC waveform is passed through
a compact transformer, which serves to either step up or step down
the voltage, depending on the design requirements. The transformer
also provides electrical isolation for safety. Once the voltage has
been transformed, it is rectified once again to ensure a stable DC
voltage. However, at this stage, the voltage is typically higher than
the desired 12V output. Therefore, a voltage regulation stage,
equipped with feedback control, is employed to precisely adjust the
output voltage to the specified 12V. The power supply
continuously monitors the output voltage and dynamically adjusts
the switching operation to maintain the desired voltage, even when
input voltage or load conditions fluctuate.
The result is a precisely regulated and efficient 12V output, which
is suitable for powering a wide range of electronic devices and
applications. These power supplies are celebrated for their energy
efficiency, compact design, and reliability, making them essential
components in the realm of modern electronics.

SMPS using VIPer22A


Looking at the figure we can easily see that the configuration does
not involve too many stages or parts. The input mains AC, as usual
is first rectified using ordinary 1N4007 diodes which is fixed in the
bridge network mode. The rectified high voltage DC is filtered
using the high voltage capacitor. The next stage is the crucial one
which incorporates the outstanding chip VIPer22A manufactured
by ST Microelectronics.
The IC alone functions as the oscillator and induces a frequency of
around 100 KHz into the primary winding of the ferrite E core
transformer. The IC is absolutely rugged and is internally protected
from sudden voltage in rush and other voltage related component
hazards. The IC also incorporates built in over heat protection
which makes the IC virtually indestructible.
The feedback loop is implemented via an opto-coupler which
becomes active during abnormal circuit conditions. When the
output voltage tends to rise beyond the set threshold the feed back
loop becomes operative and feeds an error signal to the IC FB input.
The IC instantly comes into an corrective mode and switches off
the input to the primary winding until the output returns to the
normal range.

Working of the LCD
The working principle of an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is based
on the unique properties of liquid crystals, which are materials that
can change their optical properties in response to an applied electric
field. An LCD typically consists of several key components: two
layers of glass or plastic substrates, between which a layer of liquid
crystals is sandwiched. Each substrate has a grid of transparent
electrodes that can be individually controlled.
When no electric field is applied, the liquid crystal molecules align
in a specific way that prevents light from passing through. This is
the "off" state, where the display appears dark. However, when an
electric field is applied to a specific electrode pair, the liquid crystal
molecules realign, allowing light to pass through that portion of the
display. This is the "on" state, where the display becomes visible.
To create text, numbers, and graphics on the screen, the electrodes
are controlled in a precise manner. By selectively applying voltage
to the appropriate electrodes, segments of the display can be turned
on or off, forming characters, symbols, or images. To enhance
visibility, most LCDs also include a backlight source, such as
LEDs, which illuminates the display evenly.
LCDs work by manipulating the alignment of liquid crystal
molecules through the application of electrical voltage, allowing
them to control the passage of light and create visual information
on the screen. The precise coordination of electrodes and liquid
crystal states enables the display to show text and graphics in a
wide range of electronic devices, from digital watches and
calculators to smartphones, computer monitors, and more.

4.5: Working Description of Proposed Model :


Before going into the deep study of working and it’s
model flow we must be aware of each and every component with
it’s ranges and working capabilities. Even after knowing all the
primary factors the precautions should be followed to get the
deliberate values. The connections should be clear to understand
and tightly fixed for not getting any parallax errors at the output.
Even a minute parallax error results in the greater issue. The
connections for the final kit is as given here.

Pin Connectivity
Arduino Module
As we are not giving an 12V 1A SMPS Power Supply
Adaptor to the Arduino directly, we have to connect the
connectivity from an external source such as the extrnal power
supply module. We connect the 12V and Gnd pins to the power
supply of the Arduino from the external power supply.
The atleast and atmost power supply for an arduino is
the barrel connector and an AC-DC adapter are being used to power
up the Arduino, make sure that the output of the adapter is between
7-12V. Although the rated input can exceed to as much as 20V, it
is safe to stay within the recommended range to protect the voltage
regulator from excessive heating. Also, see to it that the GND and
Vin pins are not shorted. But if you are using the 5V and GND pins
to power up the Arduino, it is imperative that the 5V input is stable
and steady. If the Vin/5V and GND pins are being used to power
up the Arduino, double-check the polarity because if the GND and
5V/Vin pins are mixed up, it can potentially damage the Arduino
board.

Arduino Software (IDE) - contains a text editor for writing code, a message
area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common functions and a series
of menus. It connects to the Arduino hardware to upload programs and
communicate with them. Arduino is a popular open-source hardware and
software platform widely used in the maker and DIY (Do-It-Yourself)
communities for creating interactive electronic projects.

The Arduino IDE serves as the primary tool for writing, compiling, and

environment and provides a user-friendly interface for both beginners and
experienced developers. The IDE supports the Arduino programming
language, which is a simplified variant of C and C++, making it accessible
for those new to programming.
With the Arduino IDE, you can write code to control sensors, actuators, and
various other electronic components connected to an Arduino board. The
IDE comes with a comprehensive library of functions and examples that
simplify the process of working with different sensors and modules, reducing
the need for extensive low-level programming.

One of the key features of the Arduino IDE is its ability to interact with a
wide range of Arduino boards, including the popular Arduino Uno, Arduino
Mega, and many more. It also supports third-party boards that are compatible
with the Arduino framework. This flexibility makes it a versatile platform
for creating a multitude of electronic projects, from simple blinking LED

summary, the Arduino IDE is a user-friendly and versatile software tool that
empowers hobbyists, students, and professionals to develop and experiment
with a diverse array of electronic projects, making it a cornerstone of the
maker and open-source hardware communities.

Writing Sketches
Programs written using Arduino Software (IDE) are called sketches. These
sketches are written in the text editor and are saved with the file
extension.ino. The editor has features for cutting/pasting and for
searching/replacing text. The message area gives feedback while saving and
exporting and also displays errors. The console displays text output by the
Arduino Software (IDE), including complete error messages and other
information. The bottom right and corner of the window displays the
configured board and serial port. The toolbar buttons allow you to verify and
upload programs, create, open, and save sketches, and open the serial
monitor.
Arduino sketches are the core of programming for Arduino microcontroller
boards using the Arduino IDE. A sketch is essentially a piece of code written
in the Arduino programming language, which is based on C and C++. These
sketches are the instructions that tell the Arduino board what to do. Each
sketch typically consists of two main functions: setup ( ) and loop ( ).
The setup ( ) function is where you initialize variables, set up input/output
pins, and perform any one-time configuration for your project. For example,
you might configure a sensor, define the communication protocol, or set the
initial state of an output pin in this function. The code within the setup ( )
function runs once when the board is powered up or reset.
The loop ( ) function, on the other hand, is the heart of your Arduino sketch.
Code within the loop ( ) function is executed continuously in a loop after the
setup ( ) function completes. This is where you implement the main
functionality of your project. Whether it's reading data from sensors,
controlling actuators, or responding to user input, the loop ( ) function
ensures that your Arduino keeps performing its designated tasks repeatedly.
Arduino sketches are easy to write, thanks to the simplified and user-friendly
syntax. Users can make use of various built-in functions and libraries, and
they can also create custom functions to modularize their code. Debugging
and monitoring the execution of your sketch is made straightforward with
the Arduino IDE's built-in serial monitor, which helps in identifying and
resolving issues in your code.
In summary, Arduino sketches are the code written in the Arduino
programming languages that dictate the behavior of an Arduino board. These
sketches consist of the setup ( ) and loop ( ) functions, allowing users to
initialize their hardware and create continuous, looped operations, making
Arduino a versatile platform for a wide range of projects, from simple LED
blinkers to complex robots and automation systems.
