For most utilities the data needs to be collected from gas water and electric meters.
Remote wireless electric meter reading system.
Aim at these features this paper proposes a new scheme of wireless meter reading based on gprs that is the wireless communication module.
Smart meters typically record energy near real time and report regularly.
A smart meter is an electronic device that records information such as consumption of electric energy voltage levels current and power factor smart meters communicate the information to the consumer for greater clarity of consumption behavior and electricity suppliers for system monitoring and customer billing.
Amr eliminates the need to manually read the meter readings and reduces the effort required to record the readings.
This technology mainly saves utility providers the expense of periodic trips to each physical location to read a meter.
Automatic meter reading amr is the technology of automatically collecting consumption diagnostic and status data from water meter or energy metering devices gas electric and transferring that data to a central database for billing troubleshooting and analyzing.
The existing automatic meter reading system of remote electric power information collection has such problems as high cost big power consumption small networking and big line interference etc.
