One of the closest and developing fields of application is the Metering sector. There are water, electricity, gas, and heat energy meters. The protocols used are multiple among them, <strong>MDLC, 60870-102, M-BUS, Modbus<\/strong>, etc.   <\/p>\n<p>These protocols are mostly <strong>protocols for horizontal communications between field devices<\/strong>, not being applicable for vertical communications between devices and control, supervision, and billing systems.<\/p>\n<p>The need arises to <strong>communicate a multitude of energy meters with the control<\/strong>, supervision, and billing applications. It is necessary to be able to collect all the information and put it in the \u201ccloud\u201d reliably and securely. <\/p>\n<p>The meters can communicate using <strong>Rs232 or Rs485 serial communications<\/strong>, infrared, radio, Ethernet, etc. These meters can be isolated or can be grouped geographically in buildings, neighborhoods, polygons, etc. <\/p>\n<p>Different communication networks can solve the concentration of information from several meters, for subsequent sending to the \u201ccloud.\u201d Several technologies offer solutions that do not solve all the cases. <strong>SIGFOX, LORA, GSM\/GPRS, ZigBee networks,<\/strong> ISM radio modems, MESH meshed networks, Wifi, Wimax, etc, etc, etc. <\/p>\n<p>A <strong>universal solution for Metering should implement the two levels of communication<\/strong>.
