Abstract :

GSM based Automatic meter reading is the technology of automatically collecting data from
energy meter and transferring that data to a central database for billing and/or analyzing. The
Transmitter circuit is connected to the meter which counts the pulses from it and displays it over
the LCD display. The transmitter circuit containing a GSM modem for data transforming, which
transforms the meter reading after each 10 pulses to a particular number through SMS.
An additional advanced service is also available, which includes the software operating on the
computer. This software shows the updated reading. User has to put the unit rate and date of
billing, and then this software automatically calculates the bill and also print it if printer is
connected to computer.

Working:
In this GSM based Automatic meter reading, a led is connected in parallel to the ‘cal’ led of meter
reading. This led is paired with a LDR, which acts as an Optocoupler. the output of LDR is
connected to the base of NPN transistor and the collector output of transistor is connected to the
pin P1.0 of micro-controller. So at each blink of led of meter reading, a signal is passed to the
micro-controller to count the pulses of meter reading. Then micro-controller updates the reading
and displayed it over LCD and also saves to the EEPROM. The LCD and EEPROM are
connected to port 0 of micro-controller. For transferring the data a GSM modem is used, which
sends SMS to the particular mobile number defined. The micro-controller is programmed to send
the SMS after every 10 pulses of meter reading. The MAX232 is used to interfacing GSM
modem, there is another GSM modem is also available which doesn’t required MAX232, it can
directly connected to micro-controller

2. 2. This project is powered by an on-board power supply takes the ac power and converts
it into dc power that is fed to on-board devices and integrated circuits. The
microcontroller takes the reading from the energy meter and displays the reading on the
LCD. The reading of the energy meter is also sent to the cell phone of the user by a
message through GSM modem.  The main objective of the project is to develop a
prepaid energy meter. ABSTRACT

device that measures the amount of electrical energy consumed by a residence,
business, or an electrically-powered device. • Electric meters are typically calibrated in
billing units, the most common one being the kilowatt hour.

11. 11. The MAX232 is an integrMAX 232: When a MAX232 IC receives a TTL level to
convert, it changes a TTL Logic 0 to between +3 and +15V, and changes TTL Logic 1 to
between -3 to -15V, and vice versa for converting from RS232 to TTL.The MAX232 is a
dual driver/receiver and typically converts the RX, TX, CTS and RTS signals . ated
circuit that converts signals from an RS-232serial port to signals suitable for use in TTL
compatible digital logic circuits.
12. 12. DB9 CONNECTOR: • The DB9 (originally DE-9) connector is an analog 9- pin plug of
the D-Sub miniature connector family (D- Sub or Sub-D).
13. 13. Relays with calibrated operating characteristics and sometimes multiple operating
coils are used to protect electrical circuits from overload or faults RELAY:Relays are
used where it is necessary to control a circuit by a low-power signal (with complete
electrical isolation between control and controlled circuits), or where several circuits must
 be controlled by one signal. A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use
an electromagnet to mechanically operate a switch, but other operating principles are
also used, such as solid-state relays. 
14. 14. Base transceiver station: The BTS comprises the radio transmission and reception
devices, and also manages the signal processing related to the air interface. Mobile
Station: The MS is the physical equipment used by a subscriber, most often a normal
hand-held cellular telephone.  The term GSM usually means the GSM standard and
protocols in the frequency spectrum around 900MHz. GSM COMMUNICATION
15. 15. While these GSM modems are most frequently used to provide mobile internet
connectivity, many of them can also be used for sending and receiving SMS and MMS
messages.When a GSM modem is connected to a computer, this allows the computer
to use the GSM modem to communicate over the mobile network. From the mobile
operator perspective, a GSM modem looks just like a mobile phone. A GSM modem is
a specialized type of modem which accepts a SIM card, and operates over a subscription
to a mobile operator, just like a mobile phone. GSM MODEM:
16. 16. The camera can show us the IR rays being emanated from the IR LED in a
circuit.The appearance is same as a common LED. Since the human eye cannot see
the infrared radiations.  An IR LED, also known as IR transmitter, is a special purpose
LED that transmits infrared rays in the range of 760 nm wavelength. IR LED:
17. 17. This means 16 characters per line by 2 lines and 20 characters per line by 2 lines,
respectively. DISPLAY UNITMost common LCDs connected to the microcontrollers are
16x2 and 20x2 displays. LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD):
18. 18. R/W=Read/Write (When RW is low (0), the data written to the LCD) (When RW is
high (1), the data reading to the LCD)RS=Register Select (When RS is low (0), data is
treated as a command) (When RS is High(1), data being sent is text data ) EN=Enable
(used to tell the LCD that you are sending it data) The three control lines are referred to
as EN, RS, and RW If an 8-bit data bus is used the LCD will require 11 data lines (3
control lines plus the 8 lines for the data bus) LCD BACKGROUND:
19. 19. Compilers are programs used to convert a High Level Language to object code.
Desktop compilers produce an output object code for the underlying microprocessor, but
not for other microprocessors KEIL COMPILER:Keil an ARM Company makes C
compilers, macro assemblers, real-time kernels, debuggers, simulators, integrated
environments, evaluation boards, and emulators for ARM7/ARM9/Cortex-M3,
XC16x/C16x/ST10, 251, and 8051 MCU families. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
20. 20. Many of the commands that are used to control wired dial-up modems, such as ATD
(Dial), ATA (Answer) supported by MODEM. Besides this common AT command set,
GSM modems and mobile phones support an AT command set that is specific to the
GSM technology, which includes SMS-related commands like AT+CMGS (Send SMS
message), AT+CMSS (Send SMS message from storage), AT is the abbreviation of
Attention. Every command line starts with "AT" or "at". That's the reason, modem
commands are called AT commands.  AT commands are instructions used to control a
modem. AT COMMANDS: AT+CMGL (List SMS messages) and AT+CMGR (Read
SMS messages).
