CONCENTRATOR FOR NETWORKED SENSORS AND REMOTE METERS, SUPPORTING DIVERSE NETWORK ACCESS TECHNOLOGIES WITH AUTOMATIC FALLBACK STRATEGIES, AND SENSOR ACCESS SECURITY SUPPORT

摘要

This invention relates to a concentrator for networked sensors and remote meters supporting diverse network access technologies with automatic fallback strategies and sensor access security support. It is basically characterized in that it comprises a software architecture of the stack to be implemented in the concentrator gateway, which includes three main software layers: - the sensor interface layer; - the transport network layer; - the core processing layer, these layers corresponding to the main three hardware blocks.
