Experience of AMR systems based on BPL in China

With the energy reduction become more and more popular, power company need to build AMR system to improve energy efficiency. Many AMR systems around the world have used PLC as communication channel and it's the same in China. BPL technology has become more mature, and it's reliability, stability and practicality has been verified in a number of field trial which shows great potential in the future market. This paper introduces the status of AMR in China at first, and shows two typical application cases of AMR system based on BPL, and also describes the perspective of this solution. The use of BPL technology in AMR system laid the foundation of smart grid in the future.
