See full text

An arrangement for providing power in a utility meter includes a power supply and at least one capacitor. The power supply is configured to convert input AC voltage to a DC bias voltage, and is further configured to provide the bias voltage to metering circuitry within the utility meter. The metering circuitry includes an analog to digital converter and at least one processor. The capacitor is operably coupled to provide power to the RF transmitter at least when power requirements of the RF transmitter exceed an amount of power available from the power supply.
