Abstract
Recently, the E-Payment Service (EPS) is one of the most important services provided by the Internet, as it enables the organizations and individuals to pay all their financial dues electronically at any time and from anywhere therefore by saving their time and efforts. ESP is more secure and guarantees the rights of every individual user since it contains e-receipts. This paper explains the concept of pre-payment of electricity billing through smart electric meter along with the importance of remote sensing-based technology in the process of pre-payment and controlling the meter. A novel system is proposed in this paper to pay electricity billing through a smart electric meter. The proposed system also aims to familiarize the consumer with all the details about the bill and also provides him with more detailed information on operating the electrical-based devices. This paper also helps the user to connect the meter to a sensor that allows turning it off, run and charging the meter remotely. The proposed system is important in cases when the user does not know the meter consumption and also in the case of cannot control the meter remotely in an emergency situation.
