Abstract
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) today represents the backbone of Smart City intended as urban area where the most of public services are smart. Smart devices allow cities to be smart, enabling communication also among things and creating a new system nowadays known as IoT (Internet of Things). In particular the smarter the meters, the smarter the City, but the concept of smartness is not univocal. In urban area, smart meters must be accessible, collaborative and accurate. The paper faces this topic, mainly with reference to power measurements and wireless networks. In particular, it describes an innovative solution for electrical power, gas and water metering integration in the same infrastructure. Then it describes metrics and hardware details of a smart electrical power meter and, finally it shows the experimental results of the smart meter metrological characterization.
