    摘要: Various arrangements for expediting sensor reporting in a wireless hybrid time division multiple access (TDMA) shared-medium network are presented. A TDMA channel allocation process for the wireless hybrid TDMA shared-medium network may be performed such that each sensor device of a plurality of sensor devices is assigned a different timeslot. Within each timeslot of the plurality of timeslots, a grant-free transmission window may be reserved. Any sensor device may be permitted to transmit data during any grant-free transmission window. In response to the sensor device determining the sensor data is to be transmitted, the sensor device may transmit a message indicative of the sensor data during a grant-free transmission window of a timeslot assigned to a different sensor device.

    摘要: Systems, machine-readable media, and methods to control deployment of IoT devices over wireless networks with an adaptive gateway are provided. A gateway device may broadcast on different channels in a first time slot of a time interval. The gateway device may receive a response from a sensor device in a second time slot of the time interval. The gateway device may further communicate to the sensor device in a third time slot of the time interval. The gateway device may receive transmissions from the sensor device in one or more subsequent instances of the fourth time slot of the time interval. Based at least in part on the one or more transmissions from the sensor device, the gateway device may transmit data to one or more computer systems via one or more networks.

    摘要: Various arrangements of intelligent battery controller devices are presented herein. A intelligent battery controller device can include a power input interface that receives power from a power source for charging a battery and a power output interface that outputs power from the battery. The intelligent battery controller device can include a power monitor and control system that monitors: an output power output by the battery to one or more external devices via the power output interface; and an input power received by the battery via the power input interface. Based on the output power and the input power, the intelligent battery controller device may determine a power level of a plurality of predefined power levels. A power level message can be transmitted to an external device that receives power from the intelligent battery controller device.

    摘要: Novel techniques are described for gateway routing and/or processing of multi-tenant Internet-of-Things (IoT) device data streams. For example, a single IoT routing gateway can be used to route device data streams from IoT devices of multiple customers according to rule-based routing tiers. The routing tiers define routing protocols, including which communication technologies to use for transmission of the device data streams over a cloud network to remote servers. In some cases, the routing tiers further define processing protocols to facilitate rule-based edge processing (and/or remote processing) of some or all device data streams. Some routing tiers can define a primary and one or more secondary solution for routing and/or processing, according to customer-defined rules. In some cases, the routing tiers further enable rule-based control of interconnectivity among IoT devices.

    摘要: Various arrangements for performing wireless sensor device activation are presented. A sensor device may be manufactured such that a function of the sensor device is disabled and the sensor device is activated for passive near-field communication (NFC). A housing of the sensor device may be sealed such that only wireless communication with the sensor device is available. An NFC carrier field and a wake message can be received from an activation device. In response to validating the wake message, a sensor device identifier may be transmitted by modulating the NFC carrier field and the disabled function of the sensor device may be enabled.
