Abstract :
IEC 62056 for upper-layer protocols and IEEE 802.15.4g for communication infrastructure are promising means of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) in Japan. However, since the characteristics of a communication system based on these combined technologies have yet to be identified, this paper gives the communication failure rates and latency acquired by calculations. In addition, the calculation results suggest some adequate AMI configurations, and show its extensibility in consideration of the usage environment.
