Transport more data– Licensed AMI continues to dramatically expand “the

pipe” and increase speed:» 100 KHz to 525 KHz

• Utilities want to transmit 3, 5,10 times the amount of data pushing speeds beyond 1.0 Mbps

Transport data faster– Decreasing latency is key to enabling time sensitive

applications:» Channelize - dedicate channels to specific applications thus

greatly reducing the latency that occurs due to multiple applications sharing channels

» Optimization in routing algorithms

Optimizing communications to every endpoint– Power Control of transmit from

endpoints– Redundant coverage ensures

increased availability of every endpoint and less data backfill requirements

Coverage – Complete Control

CONFIDENTIAL

Supports IPv6 across all platforms meters, FCI, DA, HAN, lighting control, and etc.– Transforms the system from a single application AMI

network to an interoperable smart grid infrastructure– Enables industry standard addressing to be used

between all endpoints and applications

Increased Security Measures– Integrating IBM's asymmetric encryption and / or

Cisco Secure Routers to utility AMI endpoints

Secure true end-to-end IPV6

CONFIDENTIAL

Getting more out of your investment– Reducing latency enables the network to be used for

time sensitive applications like DA, Remote Load Shifting, and Demand Response expanding use cases far beyond billing

– Support multiple metering & endpoints platforms that require the ability to configure and download firmware to each effectively and efficiency

– Continued enhancements that are forward and backward compatible

Planes / Trains / SmartGrid?

To control the train moving without manual effects & by using ir & rfid technologies. Now-a-days the trains are moving from one station to other station based on predefined lights and predefined distance and driver. But now we want to control the train without driver, in the sense we want to control the entire train automatically with technologies. Ir transmitter is placed at either sides of the railway station at a fixed distance. Also every train is provided with ir receiver. Whenever the train comes closer to the station the receiver will detects the signals and sends it to main control plant. Otherwise it maintains the low output after comparator. Rfid technology is used for calculating the distance b/w train and station rfid cards are placed on railway track for every 5km or 10km and every train will be equipped with rfid reader to identify the rfid cards. Whenever rfid card is detected the results are transmitted to main controller.
