2 Contents W-AMR (wireless AMR) requirements for India A simple interoperable communication interface Optimising mesh operation for W-AMR A practical implementation example Results Obtained Pilot Implementation Live demo

3 Wireless AMI for India Should: Be simple and easy to implement, by design upgrade Use a Frequency with good range and penetration Use a bidirectional Interface to / from the meter Operate in point to point or in Mesh with DCU (Data Concentrator Unit) Enable seamless integration to a MDMS (meter data management server) Report important relevant data in real time Allow remote configuration and management Be interoperable between multiple manufacturers

4 Which technology is most suitable for metering in India? PLC 2.4GHz Infrastructure Copper quality Crowded space, competing technologies Range and penetration Mesh ISM Sub GHz ( MHz) Range and penetration Dedicated frequency Data rate Mesh / DCU

5 CyNet TM Real World Mesh Optimised for each application - Lighting, Metering. Flexible routing layers - AODV, Nano-AODV, DPR Self Heals, Self Forms - easy to deploy. Optimises data throughput by on demand route freezing Dynamic CCA able to automatically adjust performance to local (and perhaps changing) RF conditions range improved by adaptive software. Many man years of development by our team in Cambridge, UK. Proven in real world deployments in India and China. This is a product designed for real world deployments not designed by committee.

6 CyLec A simple interface Connects ANY meter using simple UART interface Guaranteed interoperable Upgradable OTA Over The Air wireless firmware MHz (*) operation ~100m+ indoor range All EXISTING meter firmware and codes retained Connects meters to one DCU Operates in P2P / CMRI AND mesh with DCU DCU seamless connection to MDMS server Real Time tamper detection Remote connect and management (*) Available in 433, 470,865-7, 868 & 915MHz

7 Integrating CyLec into a meter Uses the simplest interface available in every MCU Point-to-point Optical / RF Point-to-point / full interoperable GPRS mesh network

8 Examples of CyLec Products

9 Features supported by CyLec Meter Data Basic Download Live (~20s) Tamper Event Detection and Reporting Remote Disconnect / Reconnect, if supported on meter Any Other Commands Supported by Meter Firmware Change of profile: Normal KWh or Pre-Payment Supply Limit, for Peak Supply Limitation Demand Prediction & Optimisation Variable Tariff Rates Any Other Required Feature Supported by Meter etc.
