Abstract :
In this paper, we have reviewed the technical issues related to the effective construction of AMR system using Microcontroller, while enhancing our understanding about the challenges of designing, wireless communication, programming, interfacing a system. We have developed a prototype for testing its (AMR system using Microcontroller) capability and performance for long time to the varying extent, with a view to effectively consolidate and empirically examine the sending and receiving end hardware and software.
