AMI mainly refers to the entire infrastructure from smart meters to the two-way communication network through the various communication and data processing channels to control the main equipment. It comprises all the applications that permit the assembly and flow of energy usage material on a near real-time basis. It is comprised of various hardware and software components, all of which play a role in measuring energy consumption and transmitting information about energy, water, and gas usage to utility companies and customers. It is considered as the backbone of the smart grid as all operations in the metering and load flow are regulated by it. Its main functions include remote meter reading for error-free data, identifying system problems, load outlining, energy inspection, and reduction of the load during shedding.
