IntroductionIntroduction
Alternatives
� PLC: straightforward, viable option around electricity meters⇒ not feasible in some regions
� Customer DSL/Broadband: fast, reliable, high bandwidth⇒ legal implications; may necesssitate additional WiFi
� Cellular: Simple deployment, no additional infrastructure⇒ additional communication cost, communication problems in
cellars� Wireless sensor networks
⇒ license free bands, no communication cost⇒ low cost, low power consumption; but also: lossy
environment, low bandwidth
⇒ attractive alternative

Protocol StackProtocol Stack
Network Layer
Different routing for different directions of communication:
Meters → DC (many-to-one)� Tree constructed from periodic beacons� Expected number of transmissions metric to determine next
hop
DC → Meters (one-to-many)� Restricted re-broadcasting based on subtree tables
