许多政府部署了泛在IT项目，旨在结合最新的无线网络和宽带技术等，实现泛在的无线通信网络。无处不在的无线通信网络可用于高级计量基础设施（AMI）。因此，本文尝试利用新型无线通信技术来设计并实现一种基于ZigBee的智能电表。还设计了停电记录系统并将其嵌入到智能电表中。 Microchip的dsPIC30F系列微控制器用于开发所提出的智能电表。然后设计一个 ZigBee 系统并将其集成到所提出的电表中，并用于将详细的功耗数据和停电事件数据传输到后端处理系统。所提出的智能电表不仅可以用于功耗数据收集，还可以用于停电事件数据记录。所提出的系统具有用于构建基于区域的 AMI 的巨大潜力。实验结果证明了该系统的有效性。此外，ZigBee通信在电力领域的应用有望为泛在IT项目做出一定的贡献。
Many governments deploy ubiquitous IT project, which aims to combine the latest wireless network and wide-band technologies etc. to accomplish a ubiquitous wireless communication network. The ubiquitous wireless communication network can be utilized for the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). Therefore, this paper tries to use the new wireless communication technologies to design and implement a ZigBee-based smart power meter. An outage recording system is also designed and embedded into the smart meter. The microcontroller of Microchip dsPIC30F series is used to develop the proposed smart power meter. A ZigBee system is then deigned and integrated into the proposed power meter, and used to transmit the detailed power consumption data and outage event data to rear-end processing system. The proposed smart power meter cannot only be used for power consumption data collection but also for outage event data recording. The proposed system has great potential to be used to build the area-based AMI. Experimental results demonstrate the validity of the proposed system. Besides, the application of ZigBee communication in power area may, expectedly, lead to make a definite contribution to ubiquitous IT project.
