Mahmoud Zaki Iskandarani, Nidal F. Shilbayeh · International Conference on Systems · 2005
A remote meter reading system is designed, tested and implemented. The hardware and software in the designed system work together, to remotely receive readings from meters and then process it in order to obtain an accurate bill for the subscriber. The system makes use of modern communication and networking techniques to enable customers to not only view and pay their bill on-line, but also to history trace and analyze their consumption and to adjust it accordingly. The system offers hardcopy bill that can be sent to the customers via a collection center connected to the billing system through a private communication network.
