Abstract

The evaluation of wireless home automation for smart appliances involves assessing the integration, functionality, and performance of connected devices within a smart home ecosystem. This evaluation focuses on key aspects such as energy efficiency, user experience, security, and system interoperability. By leveraging wireless technologies like Wi-Fi, Zigbee, and Bluetooth, smart appliances can be controlled remotely through mobile apps or voice assistants, offering convenience and enhanced control over home environments. The study also examines challenges such as network reliability, privacy concerns, and the scalability of systems in diverse home settings. The goal is to optimize the design and implementation of smart home systems to improve their effectiveness, user satisfaction, and sustainability.
