Abstract: An advanced metering infrastructure may be configured for automated meter reading, such as of utility (electric, natural gas, etc.) meters. Within a network, a data collector communicates with, and receives meter data from, a plurality of endpoints. Firmware on the endpoints may be updated by transmission, from the data collector, of a new firmware image. In one example, the data collector sends an announcement of a firmware update to the plurality of endpoints. At a time indicated by the announcement, the data collector multicasts the firmware update a plurality of times. The data collector then receives indications from a plurality of endpoints that did not successfully receive all blocks of the multicast firmware update. In response, the data collector sends missing blocks to the plurality of endpoints according to the indications.

Abstract: To determine network coverage of a device within a network a user may send an instruction to the device using a mobile configuration tool of a mobile device. Upon receiving the instruction, the device of which the network coverage is to be determined may broadcast a message using a standard protocol, and listen to one or more responses from other devices in the network. In response to receiving the one or more responses, the device at issue may relay the one or more responses, or a processing result of the network coverage (determined based on the one or more responses) to the mobile configuration tool for display to the user. The user may determine whether the network coverage of that device meets one or more network coverage criteria and, if not, may take some corrective action.
Abstract translation: 为了确定网络内的设备的网络覆盖，用户可以使用移动设备的移动配置工具向设备发送指令。 在接收到指令时，要确定网络覆盖的设备可以使用标准协议来广播消息，并且收听来自网络中的其他设备的一个或多个响应。 响应于接收到一个或多个响应，所述设备可以将一个或多个响应或网络覆盖的处理结果（基于一个或多个响应确定）中继到移动配置工具以向用户显示 。 用户可以确定该设备的网络覆盖范围是否满足一个或多个网络覆盖标准，如果不是，则可以采取一些纠正措施。

Abstract: A utility company may schedule when and how endpoints report resource consumption data based on relative priorities of endpoints or the customers associated therewith. By associating endpoints with one of multiple different quality of service (QoS) levels, and sending each endpoint a reporting schedule based on its respective QoS level, the utility company may configure prioritized reporting of resource consumption data by endpoints of an advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) with automatic meter reading (AMR).
Abstract translation: 公用事业公司可以根据端点或与其相关联的客户的相对优先级来安排端点何时以及如何报告资源消耗数据。 通过将端点与多个不同服务质量（QoS）级别中的一个相关联，并且基于其相应的QoS级别向每个端点发送报告调度，公用事业公司可以通过高级计量基础设施（AMI）的端点来配置资源消耗数据的优先级报告 ）具有自动抄表（AMR）。
