This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulatio
18、ns, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,

BS EN 16836-1:2016EN 16836-1:2016 (E) 4 Introduction The EN 16836 series of standards details requirements for gas meters, water meter
20、s and heat meters that can interoperate with products in a mesh network that conform to this standard through a smart energy profile application layer. This standard refers to documents made freely available by the ZigBee Alliance, an organization that manages a mesh network specification (see www.z
21、igbee.org/about/centc294). This series of standards specifies how a mesh networking radio specification applies within the scope of European standards at the application layer, networking layer and also medium access control/physical layer (MAC/PHY). All parts are intended to be used in conjunction.
22、 The scope of this series is in line with the scope of CEN/TC 294, “Communication systems for meters and remote reading of meters”, and allows data produced by utility meters to be read by a WAN communications hub, another meter, a separate meter display unit or any other device implementing this sm
23、art energy profile standard. Within the wider smart energy profile and referenced documents, there are also clusters and data objects that relate to other devices, such as programmable thermostats, but these clusters are outside the scope of CEN/TC 294 and as such are omitted from this standard. How
24、ever, details of these data items can be found in the same documents that are referenced in this standard. EN 16836 consists of the following parts: EN 16836-1, Communication systems for meters Wireless mesh networking for meter data exchange Part 1: Introduction and standardization framework EN 168
25、36-2, Communication systems for meters Wireless mesh networking for meter data exchange Part 2: Networking layer and stack specification EN 16836-3, Communication systems for meters- Wireless mesh networking for meter data exchange Part 3: Energy profile specification dedicated application layer Thi
26、s standard series is created in compliance with the terms of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between CEN/CELELEC and the ZigBee Alliance. The principles underpinning the relationship between CEN/CENELEC and the ZigBee Alliance are described in the Consortium Bridge procedure. A copy of the MOU a
27、nd the Consortium Bridge can be obtained from CEN/CENELEC. In a similar way to the FLAG Association providing registration services for manufacturer codes used in DLMS/COSEM and MBus for meter reading, the ZigBee Alliance acts as a Registration Authority for manufacturer identifiers so that there is
28、 a guarantee of no clash between manufacturers. NOTE The term ZigBee and the ZigBee Logo are registered trademarks of the ZigBee Alliance and their use is subject to the conditions of membership. BS EN 16836-1:2016EN 16836-1:2016 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard gives provisions on the standardi
29、zation framework of communication systems applicable to the exchange of data from metering devices to other devices within a mesh network. It includes information on the application process functions, layered protocols and metering architecture. This European Standard also specifies how to interpret
30、 Parts 2 and 3 of EN 16836 which give a list of references to the ZigBee documents. This standard is applicable to communications systems that involve messages and networking between a meter or multiple meters and other devices in a mesh network, such as in home displays (IHDs) and communications hu
31、bs. This standard allows routing between devices and also allows channel agility to avoid contention with other networks of the same type, or networks of other types operating in the same frequency bands. This standard is designed to support low power communications for devices such as gas and water
32、 meters which can make data from such devices available on the mesh network at any time through a proxy capability within a permanently powered device NOTE 1 This standard specifies a communication protocol that can embrace a multitude of smart metering architectures from a variety of countries. Thi
33、s standard is not designed to limit, or indeed imply a choice or preference to any one of the many possible architectures, but more over provide information on how devices can use this communications standard to publish and receive information from meters over a network. NOTE 2 This standard defines
34、 a protocol that can be used for either a type M interface, or a type H1 interface, however H1 interfaces are not within the scope of CEN/TC 294. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application

40、pt of a client server relationship between logical devices in a network and uses a concept of clusters to exchange information. A cluster is a related collection of commands and attributes, which together define an interface to specific functionality. Typically, the entity that stores the attributes
41、 of a cluster is referred to as the server of that cluster, and an entity that affects or manipulates those attributes is referred to as the client of that cluster. In general terms all clusters have a server and a client side, meaning that all information either published or requested on the networ
42、k is owned by the device attached to the server side of a cluster and received or requested by the device attached to the client side of that particular cluster. 4.2 Basic principles 4.2.1 Mirroring Mirroring is described in detail in Annex D of the ZigBee Smart Energy Profile Specification 07-5356
43、Rev 19. The concept of this functionality is to allow data from a battery operated, sleepy device to be available all of the time to other devices on the network by allowing another always on device to hold a copy of the devices data in a proxy or mirror. This proxy or mirror can also be used to all
44、ow commands or instructions from an AMI Head End System to be issued to a sleepy device without necessitating the sleepy device to be awake at the time of transmitting the command. This functionality is commonly used in the case of a gas meter that wakes up every so often to check for commands await
45、ing it, and to publish its own meter readings, status, alarms etc. The principle is that the gas meter will awaken and query the mirror that is supported in the always on device to determine what commands are awaiting it. The always on device will inform the sleepy device that there are instructions
46、 or commands awaiting it and tell the gas meter to stay awake to receive them. The gas meter will then have the chance to write its own cluster data to the mirror ready for other devices on the network to read this data or be sent it (depending on the device and data item). 4.2.2 Tunnelling This fun
47、ctionality is discussed in detail in ZigBee Smart Energy Profile Specification, D.6, and allows the transport of another protocol over a ZigBee smart energy network without the need for any other device on the network having to understand or interpret the payload of the other protocols packets. Frag
48、mentation functionality within the ZigBee Protocol allows the packets of the tunnelled protocol to be broken down and transported across the smart energy (SE) network in packets that are of appropriate size to be managed by the SE Network. Once packets have been transported from one BS EN 16836-1:20
49、16EN 16836-1:2016 (E) 7 device to the other over the tunnel, these native format packets are reassembled and presented to the application that understands them. EXAMPLE A ZigBee smart energy network containing a communications hub, an electricity meter and an IHD, in which the IHD and communications hub only understand ZigBee Smart Energy Profile whereas the electricity meter understands ZigBee Smart Energy Profile and DLMS/COSEM. Use of this tunnelling function within a ZigBee smart energy network enables
