The Multiple Input Receiver Assembly (MIRA) board is a multiple process receiver that increases the maximum number of inputs that can be supported when using concurrent phase communications.

Part of the Aclara TWACS technology AMI solution, the MIRA board increases the rate at which meters can be added by the utility. The MIRA board reduces the bandwidth required for searching meters, reduces the complexity of configuring management software search modes, and improves reliability of path assignments. All of these improve AMR performance and reduce the time needed to respond to path switching events. A single MIRA board replaces both CRM and CRP Assemblies.

The development of the MIRA reduces the overall cost of deploying the AMI system by increasing the rate at which meters can be addressed in the TWACS technology AMI system.

• Increases total network throughput by reading more meters simultaneously
• Enables multiple smart grid applications
• Lowers the total cost of ownership
• Improves outage assessment and restoration management when combined with TWACS PROasys®
