Wireless electric billing system and amplitude characterization

People have no means of knowing what their current electricity consumption is until the bill arrives, but the information provided by the electric bill contains too much information when the user only wants to know how much is their power generation charge for that particular billing period. The conventional method of collection of bills has several inherent disadvantages like human error, and the whole process can be very time consuming. There is also the problem of stray loading in apartments and electricity theft. Applying the technology of SMS and microcontrollers, electricity companies will now have ways on collecting the bill wirelessly and simultaneously without having to employ a reader going house to house. This can also give the reader an option to check what their current generation charge is. To some extent, the problem of electricity theft can also be detected. All of these can be done with a simple command via text messaging
