Abstract
An apparatus for transporting resource usage data, including narrowband receivers and a controller. The narrowband receivers are deployed geographically within a grid, where the narrowband receivers receive transmissions from a least one of a plurality of transmitting devices, and where each of the plurality of transmitting devices transmits identical data on each of a plurality of frequency bands that are hopped according to a hopping sequence, and where the hopping sequence is initially unknown to the plurality of narrowband receivers. The controller is coupled to the narrowband receivers, and is configured to control the narrowband receivers such that the each of the plurality of transmitting devices is identified, and is configured to control narrowband receivers such that corresponding data from the each of the transmitting devices is received on at least one of the plurality of frequency bands.
