INTRODUCTION:
Traditional Doorbells are wired devices and are usually
fixed at one place. They are becoming obsolete
because of these reasons and are gradually being
replace by advanced Wireless Doorbell Devices. With
a wireless doorbell, the position of the switch and the
bell is not fixed.
We can place it anywhere we want and also the
installation is pretty simple. The setup of wireless
doorbell doesn’t require any internal wiring. Also, if
the wired doorbell is not fixed while construction, we
need to make holes for wiring and installation.
In this project, we have designed an Arduino based
Wireless Doorbell using simple hardware. The project
is implemented using RF Module for wireless

Working of the Project:
The aim of this project is to design a simple
wireless doorbell. The working of the project is
explained here. For explaining the working of the
project, all the connections are made as per the
circuit diagram.
NOTE: Make sure that the Transmitter Part of the
Project is switched on before the Receiver Part.
This is to ensure that the RF Transmitter and
Receiver Modules are properly paired.
In order to ring the bell (or buzzer in this case), we
need to push the button on the transmitter side of
the circuit. When the button is pushed on the
transmitter side, a logic ‘0’ will be detected by the
Working of the Project:
The transmitted data will be received by the
RF Receiver Module and is given to the
Decoder IC. The Decoder IC, then decodes
the serial data to parallel data and transmits
the Logic ‘0’ to Arduino.
In the Arduino UNO’s, it is programmed such
that, whenever a Logic ‘0’ is detected by the
Arduino, the buzzer is turned on. Hence,
whenever the button is pressed, the buzzer is
turned on wirelessly.
ADVANTAGES:
The advantage of using RF Transmitter – Receiver based Wireless
Doorbell is that it is very easy to design the circuit and implement.
The range of the transmission is fairly large. Hence, it is suitable for
large homes.
Another advantage over Bluetooth based data transmission is it
doesn’t require any smart phone or Bluetooth enabled phone or any
other Bluetooth device.
In case the system is implemented using a Wi-Fi network, we need
to make sure that both the transmitter and receiver are connected to
the Wi-Fi network.
Another wireless technology which can be used for Wireless
Doorbell is IR. But the problem is that its range is less and also it is a
Line of Sight Communication.
DISADVANTAGES:
Both the Transmitter and Receiver parts of the
circuit must be always turned on i.e. there should
always be power.
No additional security like camera integration and
hence, the ringer of the bell can’t be determined.
APPLICATIONS:
The Wireless Doorbell implemented in this
project is just a demonstration of the idea. But the
idea can be extended to actual, real time wireless
doorbell system.
Since the mode of communication is RF, the
range is considerably large that other wireless
technologies.
The project is suitable for homes, shops, garages,
hospitals, offices etc.
CONCLUSION & FUTURE SCOPE
The presented circuit of wireless controlled doorbell is employs two
major section i.e. transmitter and receiver. The working principal of
the circuit is based on both circuits. This transmitter section is
designed around oscillator transistor. The output from transistor
gives to emitter to generate radio frequency from its collector. We
also adjust this transmitter frequency using trimmer. The receiver
section has two main sections i.e. RF amplifier section and bell
trigger section. An aerial is used to receive the transmitted
frequency from remote which is further amplified by amplifier and
trigger circuit. The whole receiver circuit utilizes seven transistors.
In future invention we can modify doorbell as with sensors and
camera ;when person come near to door bell area, then sensor will
detect the person and ringer will ringing sound and camera will
