Abstract
To secure the communicaton reliability of an integrated meter reading network consisting of BPL and RF networks, the communication route may be changed between both networks automatically when the communication environment changes. This paper not only designed the automatic wireless routing mechanism to create the wireless meter reading terminal route and communicate with the BPL terminal next to it but also verified the communication performance of the developed mechanism via a verification test. Such verification test revealed a meter reading success rate that was 11% higher than the existing BPL-based integrated meter reading system which is not adopted automatic wireless routing mechanism.
