Abstract

A method and system for providing a network protocol for utility services are disclosed are disclosed. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method determines whether a measured real signal strength differs from a an accepted real signal strength by a configurable control limit parameter. In the event the measured real signal strength exceeds either an upper or lower bound based upon the configurable control limit parameter a determination is made whether there has been an unacceptable number of measured real signal strengths that exceed either an upper or lower bound based upon the configurable control limit parameter. In the event there has been an unacceptable number of measured real signal strengths that exceed either an upper or lower bound, which may include reaching or exceeding a configurable out of bound incidence limit, then a determination is made to calculate a new accepted real signal strength.
