    摘要: In embodiments of the present disclosure improved capabilities are described for a system having a host computer connected to a communication network, wherein the communication network includes a publish-subscribe broker network adapted to provide publish-subscribe broker services to a sensor device in RF communication with a wireless RF access node, wherein the wireless RF access node is connected to the communication network and enables the sensor device to connect to the publish-subscribe broker network. The publish-subscribe broker network is adapted to route packets of sensor data, on behalf of the sensor device that publishes the sensor data, to a sensor-processing application, wherein the sensor processing application subscribes to the sensor data, and wherein the sensor processing application generates application data that is at least in part sensor data from the sensor device. The publish-subscribe broker network is adapted to route packets of application data, on behalf of the sensor processing application that publishes the application data, to a communicating entity that is connected to the communication network if the communicating entity subscribes to the application data.

    摘要: Improved capabilities are described for increasing the bandwidth in a wireless communication network, such as where host computers provide publish-subscribe broker services to a sensor device and a communicating entity. A queuing service application may provide service packet continuity when the sensor device or the communicating entity moves between two wireless RF access nodes (in the same or different wireless networks). The publish-subscribe broker network is adapted to route packets of sensor data, on behalf of the sensor device that publishes the sensor data, to a sensor-processing application, wherein the sensor-processing application subscribes to the sensor data, and wherein the sensor-processing application generates application data that is at least in part sensor data from the sensor device. The publish-subscribe broker network is adapted to route packets of the application data, on behalf of the sensor-processing application that publishes the application data, to the communicating entity if the communicating entity subscribes to the application data. The queuing service application connects to the publish/subscribe broker network and subscribes to receive packets of the application data matching the packets being sent to the communicating entity, wherein the queuing service application makes available the matching application data packets to replace application data packets that the communicating entity did not receive during a time when the sensor device or the communicating entity transitions between connections with the two wireless RF access nodes.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described wherein sensor devices for gathering sensor data are in communication with a sensor processing application enabled to receive sensor data and to perform a function such as storing, processing, and redistributing sensor data or processed sensor data. A communication network to which the sensor devices are connected comprises a publish-subscribe broker network including a broker adapted to provide publish-subscribe broker services for entities including the sensor devices and the sensor processing application. A key management application distributes keys to entities that are authorized to send or receive on channels established within the broker network. An authorized subscriber entity connected to the broker network via a broker is enabled to receive data on a specific identified channel by subscribing to the channel and receive published data on the channel published by an authorized publisher entity. The broker network routes packets of sensor data, on behalf of an entity that is authorized to publish, to any sensor processing application which is an authorized subscriber to the sensor data.
