TY - CHAP U1 - Konferenzveröffentlichung A1 - Klemm, Martin A1 - Sikora, Axel T1 - Measurement Unit for Energy Efficient M2M Mobile Communication T2 - Tagungsband zum Workshop der Multiprojekt Chip-Gruppe Baden-Württemberg N2 - Machine-to-machine communication is continuously extending to new application fields. Especially smart metering has the potential to become the first really large-scale M2M application. Although in the future distributed meter devices will be mainly connected via dedicated primary communication protocols, like ZigBee, Wireless M-Bus or alike, a major percentage of all meters will be connected via point to point communication using GPRS or UMTS platforms. Thus, such meter devices have to be extremely cost and energy efficient, especially if the devices are battery based and powered several years by a single battery. This paper presents the development of an automated measurement unit for power and time, thus energy characteristics can be recorded. The measurement unit includes a hardware platform for the device under test (DUT) and a database based software environment for a smooth execution and analysis of the measurements.
