Calibrating a Gaussian frequency-shift keying modulation index includes generating a training sequence of bits, shaping a pulse from the training sequence according to an initial modulation index, and converting the shaped signal to a transmission signal. The transmission signal is then either looped through a radio frequency core or processed by frequency deviation estimation hardware to determine a frequency deviation. The frequency deviation is converted to a new modulation index, and potentially a ratio between a target modulation index and a measured modulation index as a scaling factor. The process is then iteratively repeated until a threshold frequency deviation is achieved.

To optimally receive smart meter control messages transmitted by a concentrator, in a meter having a transceiver for bidirectional data interchange, despite its minimal resources, a current modulation reference frequency which is subject to drift is shifted by the instantaneous frequency difference between the current transmitter-side reference frequency and the current transceiver-side reference frequency in the concentrator. Therefore, the current reference frequencies correspond in the downlink without having to intervene in the meter. This frequency difference in the concentrator is obtained by comparing the current receiver-side demodulation reference frequency with the current transmitter-side reference frequency, and the current transceiver-side reference frequency, on the other hand, from messages from the transmitter of the concentrator and from the transceiver of the meter which are received using the receiver of the concentrator. A frequency-measuring comparator only needs to be connected upstream and downstream of the demodulator in the concentrator for this purpose.
