Secure Wireless Networks Based on Fuzzy Logic for Smart HVAC Systems in Small-Scale Industries

Abstract

The traditional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system depends on wired mechanical thermostats and regulators deployed at various points in the industrial environment for temperature monitoring. Due to ineffective dynamic changes according to the environment, the traditional HVAC system consumes more electrical energy. Next-generation wireless network (NGWN) systems play a vital role in improving the overall efficiency of the system by continuous monitoring and analysis. A small-scale industry using HVAC systems needs an active smart energy saver technique for maintaining an economical budget. This work uses MATLAB software to simulate and analyze the utilization of fuzzy-based NGWN to reduce the energy consumption requirements of small-scale manufacturing. In the model, a fuzzy rule is designed and applied to a small-scale enterprise divided into five sectors, one of which is temperature sensitive, with the goal of lowering the energy bill. The model employs fuzzy rules to enhance the NGWN, which minimizes the energy usage cost by 30% as compared with the traditional existing HVAC systems.
