Profibus-DP network based building automation

In this study, Profibus-DP network based a novel building automation design is presented. In building automation, security systems design, power and dynamic lighting control were implemented. The designed system brings out a new approach embedding both traditional and intelligent systems in addition to its control, mounting, cost, reliability and design flexibility. Traditional and fuzzy control algorithms were implemented in designed system. In the study, network-induced delay is examined for the building and industrial automation applications and its effects on system were looked over. The designed real time systems provided high controllability advantages compared to traditional systems. With Profibus-DP based design, problems due to network structure and hardware, especially network-induced delay was decreased. It is observed with experimental analysis that networkinduced delay is not constant and has inferior effects on system?s operating performance.
