Request Temperature Data Using GSM and Arduino programming
Description:
This tutorial is based on monitoring temperature and humidity using a cell phone, Arduino and the well-known temperature and humidity sensor DHT11. In this project, we will learn how to use your cell phone to measure temperature and humidity from anywhere in the world. There are projects where the data from the Sensors is sent after regular intervals, which I don’t think is good. This project differs from the rest of the GSM-based projects, as the temperature and humidity values are only sent in this project when the owner sends a request message.

GSM SIM900A Module:
This is the GSM module I’m going to use in this tutorial, we have different types of GSM modules on the market, the one I’m going to use today is GSM SIM900A, the same software is also being tested on sim900D, so you can use sim900D if you want.
If you’re from Pakistan, Bangladesh or India, make sure you’re buying the SIM900A unlocked version. In this tutorial, I will use GSM SIM900A, as you can see that there is no on-board voltage regulator on the screen, so be careful when applying the voltage. For this GSM module, the ideal voltage is 4.7v but you can also connect it to the 5v adaptor.
Since the ideal voltage is 4.7v to 5volts for this GSM module, any above voltage can harm the GSM module. If you do not have a controlled 5v adaptor, you can also use a voltage regulator that can be set to lm317t.
As you can see, there are so many pins in the SIM900A module that are clearly labeled but only 5 of these pins, the power supply pins, GND, Rxd 5v, and txd 5v will be used.The GSM SIM900A module’s GND will connect to the Arduino GND, the GSM SIM900A’s txd will link to the Arduino pin7, and eventually, the GSM SIM900A’s rxd will attach to the Arduino pin8.
