Automatic Meter Management
Wireless communication solutions for smart metering
Smart Meters, Add-Ons, Gateways and Data Loggers are all part of the energy world today. Wavecom's wireless connectivity solutions make them more efficient as well as easier and quicker to design.
 Improve design efficiency: Combine cellular communication (GSM/GPRS/EDGE, CDMA), with other RF technologies (Wifi, Wimax, Zigbee, Zeewave, Coronis, ...), PLC, M-Bus EN13757-4, Euridis®
Get rid of the SIM card issues: Wavecom's inSIM® solution is a hardware SIM solution, integrated into the Wireless CPU® at the silicon level.
Reduce operating costs: Wavecom's Intelligent Device Services enable you to remotely monitor and securely upgrade the software of your meter, in addition to the entire Wavecom embedded Open AT® Software.
Bundle services
Multi-energy utilities need to bundle AMR services in order to collect indexes from different meters (gas, water, heat), with 1 way or 2 ways access. The electricity meter is usually the preferred access point.
Wired Bus/RF technologies are appropriate for powerless meters. The Smarter Electricity Meter play the role of 2 way router or gateway for data collection
Wavecom's Wireless CPU®s are powerful enough to manage any combination:
n GSM/GPRS + Wired Bus Interface (M-Bus, Euridis®)
n GSM/GPRS + Radio (ISM band, ZigBee®)
n GSM/GPRS + Wired Bus Interface + Radio
A similar approach could be proposed with PLC link as well, in order to combine technologies and optimize average cost per point.
