[0034] Figure 1A A communication system in a smart meter automation remote management environment is schematically shown.
[0035] Figure 1A The system shown in includes a power line communication network (indicated by solid arrows) designed to interconnect smart meters and enable them to communicate with the underlying nodes to send them, inter alia, meter readings, which are here It is called MNC (Multimedia Network Connection Coordinator) device 110 . In this context, the term "multimedia" means "multiple connected devices" in its etymology. The power line communication network is meshed, which enables any one smart meter to have multiple paths potentially available to the MNC device 110, and vice versa. In such a mesh network, some nodes then act as repeaters to enable one or more other nodes to communicate with the MNC device 110 . A "node" refers to any device that can be included in a system to communicate with other devices in the system.
