Abstract—Because of the traditional way of metering error and low efficiency, we propose household metering system design based on Zigbee and GPRS technologies, using PIC18LF4620 as the core processor and CC2430 chip as close communication function, using SIM300 chip as communication function in distance. Clustering structure of the network to reduce data traffic, Energy-saving sleep cycle has been achieved. Experiments have proved that this system can be safely. can reach 200 meters; in other uses spectrum, the indoor distance is 30 meters, while in the outdoor transmission distance can reach 1000 meters. The actual distance will be based on the size of the transmission power. ZigBee technology has a variety of network topologies shown in Figure 1[1] Index Terms—Zigbee; GPRS; Meter reading system; structure of Clusters; CC2430 I.
