It depends on which stack you want to run. Did you have something specific in mind?

I am implementing a smart meter and needs a wireless module to send and receive data.

Have you looked into what sort of network you want? Typically a star or mesh network can be used. For a star network simpliciTI can be used (available in beta version here: e2e.ti.com/.../207308). For a mesh network contiki/ CC1310 is the best combination.

The choice is also dependent on if you want to be compatible with other meters etc.

We have one example for CCS here: processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Category:Sub-1GHz. Our other examples are for IAR, www.ti.com/.../toolssoftware. You can migrate a IAR example to CCS (one guide could be found here: www.ti.com/.../slau157ak.pdf)

You may consider a complete module (only 12 x 25 mm size) with integrated communication protocol stack, specially designed for meter reading. Have a look at www.radiocrafts.com where you can find Wireless M-Bus as well as Tinymesh protocol modules. These modules are very compact and easy to integrate and use.

Regarding the radiocrafts modules, i can't find any source code or example codes with APIs in their website. What about the cost?
