the DA (Distribution Automation) network, as indicated in Figure 5. Here, the pre-existing
electrical distribution grid is overlaid with the bridge-based DA network deployment.
Relays are used to extend the RF signal to greater distances and to extend the signal around
obstacles in the field.
Centralized and Decentralized Master/Remote Deployments
A Master/Remote deployment can be centralized or decentralized. In a centralized Master/
Remote deployment, the SCADA system resides at the back office and all data is drawn back to
the central location. This resembles the classic “star” network.
