The work presents an internet wireless-type power remote control platform design, including a central control module and multiple power control modules. Differing to traditional wire-type scheme, the central control module embedded with a power operating website and a RF transceiver module. The central control module receives commands come from the website and than broadcasts the commands to the power control modules via MiWi wireless-type technology. The power control module includes a RF transceiver module and power drive circuit and can be installed at any desired location. The developed power control system resolved the drawbacks of traditional scheme such as wiring, larger size, and operation inconvenience. Moreover, the central control module has minimum dimension regardless the number of power control unit. Wiring, operation, and costs are significantly better than traditional technology. The prototype of the developed system has been completed and obtains stable control performance after a long period of testing. Using any portable device can execute the remote control operation via internet, especially suitable for household-type power control.
