Abstract
Smart energy metering has emerged as a critical innovation for efficient energy management and monitoring. This manuscript explores the design and implementation of a smart energy metering system utilizing GSM communication technology for remote data transmission. The system aims to enhance real-time energy consumption monitoring, reduce manual meter reading errors, and enable automated billing processes. The paper presents a comprehensive literature review on existing metering technologies, the methodology for GSM-based smart metering implementation, statistical analysis of system performance, and experimental results validating the approach. The proposed solution demonstrates reliability, cost-effectiveness, and scalability for practical deployment in residential and commercial sectors.
Keywords
Smart energy metering, GSM communication, automated meter reading, remote energy monitoring, embedded systems, energy management.
