BREIF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONS
The system consists of an innovative subsystem, which is to conven the existing disc type analogue meter into digital meter. Eiy courting ih^ number of rotations of the disc using infrared Transceivers and transmitting it as pulses .o the muhiplexed energy meter through wireless transmitter. To store the energy consumed by the consumer digitally in the memory I developed this con\ersion using senaoTS. The power supply to the consumer's digital energy meter or digitally con\erted disc type energy meter (b) is applied through the multiplexed energy meter. The purpose of the multiplexed meter is to tlnd out the losses in a particular section, to reduce the o\erall cost of the wireless s\ stems and it acts as a mediator between consumer's meter and the control room recei\er. All the ener iv meters generate pulses on e\er> unit or e\er> rotation. These pulses trigger the micro controller ihrougli \v ireless transmitter network (I) to increment the counter in the memor\ of the multiplexed energy neter. .Ml these collected datas are stored in the memory of multiplexed energy meter and transmits to iht control room through wireless network (2) when ret^iired. The multiplexed energ) meter recei\es inp'it data from the consumer's energy meters and transmits the stored data to the control room recei\er. This multiplexed energs meter is designed to install in the electrical pole or in the pillar-box where the input electrical lino of the group of consumers or at the central place to cover wireless network (1), the group ot consumer'N energy meter. I his multiplexed energy meter may collect A: store all other data of Temperature. hunudii\. etc tor t'uture reference.
Fhe wireless data transmission can be made by an\ t)pc of modulations tcchnicjues like C'I).\I.\. TDM A, FSK, FD\!A. -'tc or any other latest techniques. This sssiem of collecting the data can be upuated as per our requirement in the future. The data formats can Ix* transmitted in the form of packets. DTMl" (Dual tone Multi Frequency), serial data, synchronous. Asynchronous, etc.. or b> using an\ t\pe of latest technology as per our requirement. I he speed of data Transmission can be used in an> baud rate c.s per our requirement. Ihe datas are retrieved Irom the multiplexed energ\ meter at an> time through wireless network (2).

The digital energy meter or disc type digitally converted energy meter (b) is linked with electrical power line to transmit the consumed energy readings through wireless transmitter (1). All these transmitters have lis own dedicated digital code so no possibilities of conflict problems in between the energy meters transmitters. Every energy meter has the display and verified after received the oiils by the consumer. Since it has full wireless link nobody can tamper or malpractices. This method is applicable to an>Avhere because of invisible wireless link.
This Wireless multiplexed energy meter has advanced futures to communicate to the central billing department through wireless medium or cell phone network or the telephone network, it has inbuilt wireless receiver (1) system which is used to read the pulses of the digital energy meter or digital con\erted disc type energy meter. All these pulses are counted and stored in the registry of the multiplexed energy meter. The power supply to the digital energy meter or digitally converted energy meter is applied through this multiplexed energy meter to measure the incoming current consumption to compare with consumed result received through v ireless receiver. This technology helps to find the theft or losses at a particular location by comparing with the consumed reading with the overall incoming power reading. The diagram (g) shows the wireless receiv .^r, which helps to receive the pulses tYom the digital energv meter or digitally converted disc type energ> meter though wireless transmitter and stores in the memory. .Ml the data is transmitted to the billing depanmeni at any time through telephone network or dedicated wirelos network (2) or any cell phone network. The circuit board is designed to store the collected viata of incoming electrical power and consumed power, the voltage, etc and transmits all the data through w ireless network.
The block diagram of the existing Analog disc tvpe energe meter shows trie digital)) converted analogue meter. Ihe digital display shows the readings of the power consumed. 1 he Infrared I'ransceivers or anv other detector are used to count the rotation of the disc and transmits the stored data throuuh wireless whenever the multiplexed energy meter requests through vureless transceiver. Ihe RF transmitter, dc convened step down [x>wer supply and microprocessor section are intert'aced to comniunicaie to the multiplexed energv meter. Ihe infrared rays are shown in the disc io detect the presence of Black coitu paint or tape in the region. Ihese sensors alv\ays increment the count even if anvbodv tries to rotate the disc in reverse direction.

The new digital energy meter is linked with wireless transmitter to transnit through wireless network (I) of all the cons imed unit pulses of ih^ group of consumers to the multiplexed energy meter or all the required parameters stored in the n-'w digital energy meters of the group of consumers to store in the multiplexed energy meter.
