ABSTRACTThe GSM based APM Reading System consists of electro
mechanical Power Meter.
It is installed at every consumer side and Electricity e-Billing
System at Electricity Board side.
The GSM Power Meter is electro mechanical meter with embedded
GSM modem.
At the Electricity Board side an e-billing system is used to
manage all the received SMS meter readings.
Then compute the billing cost, update the database, and publish
the notification to respective consumer through SMS and
Website.EXISTING SYSTEMCan monitoring , Controlling their home
appliances remotely through the web applications.
And also consumer can able to know their power consumption.
But manipulating bill generation would be manual.
The errors may occur while noting down meter reading.
Then errors may also occur while processing paid bills and due
bills.
PROPOSED SYSTEMIncrease the accuracy on reading system for
customers and Electricity board.
Transmit the meter reading to the Electricity board.
This process will happen for 60 days once. transmission between
customer and Electricity board.
In addition compute the billing cost, update database, and
publish the notification to respective consumer through SMS and
Website.
INTRODUCTIONNow a days the automation is becoming necessary in
every field.
The proposed system aims to move away from the traditional
method of manual reading on electricity meters.
The system successfully is able to read the meter reading
automatically and send the information to EB.
Calculate the billing amount based on the tariff rate.
Billing notifications are send via SMS & Email.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
SYSTEM OVERVIEWCOMMUNICATION INTERFACE
To send SMS we need communication interface between the
automatic meter and database server.
GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication)
GSM has been the backbone of the phenomenal success of mobile
communication. gsm power meter design
METHODOLOGYSMS and E-Mail Service.
E-BILLING INFORMATION SYSTEM (e-BIS).
Web Portal DesignSMS and E-Mail ServiceIn this methodology we
frame how to send SMS and E-Mail from Electricity Board side to
consumer side.
The server sends the SMS and E-Mail of calculated bill amount of
every two months (60 days) to the customer.
Also send the units consumed, end of the due date and month.The
Monthly Bill sms received by customer from server
The Monthly Bill SMS received by customer from server
E-BILLING INFORMATION SYSTEM (e-BIS)Developed in visual studio
2008 with database establishment in SQL Server 2005.
Retrieve the information form SMS gateway to store and update
the DB server.
Calculate the billing amount for individual meter based on the
tariff rate.
Billing notifications are send to customers.GUI for the e-BIS
System
Web Portal DesignThe web portal allows the customer to check the
billing information.
Print their billing information and details through the use of
internet.
The web portal also allowed the customer to pay the bill online
using credit card.
The web portal is linked to the bank E-Commerce server for
online transfer.16Web Portal Design
conclusion
As the system name suggests, the vision of proposed system is to
provide an automated environment for the purpose of meter readings
and thus reduce the dependency on human resources.
The Electricity board saves money by the control of theft in
energy meter and also more beneficial for customer side and the
Electricity board side.
The metering ensures the accurate and reliable measurement of
power consumed. Thank you..
