Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM);Short Range Devices;Smart Metering Wireless Access Protocol;Part 1: PHY layer

The requirement to wirelessly interconnect Smart Meters is one of the responses to the EC's mandate 441 [i.1] for an open architecture for utility meters. Short Range Device (SRD) technology has been identified as a candidate technology to interconnect meters to the Wide Area Network (WAN) Access Point (AP).
