Smart-ups Battery Charging System Utilizing GSM Technology for Accurate Battery Backup Estimation

Abstract

UPS, which stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply, is a supply system that acts as a bridge between the electric grid and the consumer. It consists of electric hardware components and batteries. The prima-ry purpose of UPS is to provide emergency power supply to critical locations such as hospitals, computer networks, communication systems, and industrial processes. In the current market, there are various types of UPS available, but some essential features are still miss-ing. To address this, we are working on developing a smart UPS system that includes battery backup es-timation based on load changes. This means we utilize a microcontroller and an LCD display to show the remaining life of the batteries or backup batteries. This feature allows workers to easily understand the status of the UPS and take necessary actions within the required time duration. Additionally, we have integrated a GSM module into our UPS system. This enables the system to send text messages at fixed intervals to the designated mobile device of the personnel responsible for the par-ticular UPS. This feature ensures timely communication and facilitates efficient management of the UPS. By the end of our paper, we aim to create a reliable and user-friendly UPS system that surpasses the functionalities of other UPS systems available in the market.
