Performance of Advanced Metering Infrastructure using cellular communication based on uplink CDMA

Abstract:

This paper studies the Okumura- Hat propagation model on CDMA technology applied in AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure). The aim of this proposal is to get information from the intelligent meter such us: outage management system, status and ratings reading. Prepaid services are oriented to the specific characteristics of rural dwellers. Furthermore, it allows to the energy distribution companies to know the energy consumption in real time. The Okumura - Hata propagation model helps to evaluate a communication system due to its good practices and results obtained with this method using cellular technology. The use of CDMA technology in electrical measurement systems helps to reduce the costs of non-technical losses, resulting in: better quality in the electrical systems and obtaining actual data readings that improves communication between the consumer and the distributor.
