Original Abstract Submitted
systems and methods for coordinating data sampling among devices include a set of electronic devices that may periodically sample energy data from a smart meter according to sample timing information. the sample timing information may specify a set of times to sample energy data for each electronic device. the set of electronic devices may take turns in sampling energy data from the smart meter so that individual electronic devices may reduce power consumption by sampling less frequently. a server may determine the sample times for the electronic devices and may instruct the electronic devices to sample energy data. additionally, each individual electronic device may leave and/or join wireless communication networks less frequently than if each individual electronic device performed every sample. accordingly, the coordinated sampling may decrease the radio resource usage and/or bandwidth usage of any individual electronic device.
