Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of managing allocation of multiple frequency channels ( 15) in conjunctions with time slots (25) by each of the wireless node ( 10) so that each of these wireless nodes ( 10) can communicate with each of its neighboring wireless nodes (10) based on a specific frequency channel ( 15) that has been allocated there between at a specifically assigned time slot (25), and thereby prevents the other neighboring wireless nodes ( 10) from any potential interference during the transmission.

Abstract:
THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MULTI-CHANNEL HANDOFF IN A PERSONAL AREA NETWORK. THIS INVENTION PRESENTS A SOLUTION FOR MOBILE NODE (120) TO GET ASSOCIATED WITH A GATEWAY (110B) THAT OPERATES ON DIFFERENT CHANNEL THAN THE MOBILE NODE'S HOME NETWORK (110A). THE MOBILE NODE (120) CONSTANTLY CHECKS THE SIGNAL STRENGTH OF THE GATEWAY (110A) THAT IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH AND COLLECTS CHANNEL INFORMATION FROM OTHER NEW GATEWAYS (110B). MOBILE NODE (120) DISASSOCIATES WITH THE CURRENT GATEWAY (110A) WHEN ITS RSSI VALUE DROPPED BELOW THE PREDEFINED THRESHOLD AND ASSOCIATE WITH NEW GATEWAY (110B) BASED ON THE GATEWAY PRIORITY SET IN ITS GATEWAY INFORMATION LIST (123).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for managing the sleeping mode of wireless sensor nodes (110) in a wireless sensor network for managing sleeping schedule of the wireless sensor nodes (110) during an event or crisis. The wireless sensor network comprises of at least one gateway and a plurality of wireless sensor node (110), wherein each wireless sensor node (100) includes a critical stage management module (111) and sleeping schedule management module (112) for managing sleeping mode during an event or crisis.

Abstract:
THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING DATA PACKETS IN A WIRELESS MULTI-HOP NETWORK. A GATEWAY (100) IN THE NETWORK SCHEDULES EACH ACCESS POINT (200) TO OPERATE IN USER MODE AND RELAY MODE, WHEREIN AT ANY PERIOD OF TIME ONLY THE ACCESS POINTS (200) IN A SPECIFIC HOP OPERATE IN THE USER MODE WHILE THE ACCESS POINTS (200) IN OTHER HOPS OPERATE IN THE RELAY MODE. DURING THE USER MODE, THE ACCESS POINT (200) IS ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH ITS USER DEVICES (300) WHILE ONLY ABLE TO TRANSMIT TO ITS NEIGHBOURING ACCESS POINTS (200). DURING THE RELAY MODE, THE ACCESS POINT (200) IS ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH ITS NEIGHBOURING ACCESS POINTS (200) WHILE ONLY ABLE TO TRANSMIT TO ITS USER DEVICES (300).
Abstract:
SENSOR NODES (20) ARE USUALLY BOUND TO A MAIN GATEWAY (24) IN A WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK (22). THE PRESENT INVENTION PROPOSES A SOLUTION WHICH COMPRISES CREATING NOVEL SOCKET ADDRESS FOR OTHER COMMUNICATOR GATEWAY (26) TO CONNECT WITH SENSORS IN A WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK. SOCKET ADDRESSES FOR OTHER COMMUNICATOR GATEWAY ARE PROVIDED (60). THE BINDING STATUS OF NEW COMMUNICATOR GATEWAY IS BOUND (68) TO ESTABLISH CONNECTION. AFTER RECEIVING GATEWAY ADVERTISEMENT PACKET FROM A SINK SUCH AS COMMUNICATOR GATEWAY, THE SENSOR NODE WILL SAVE THE ADDRESS OF THE COMMUNICATOR GATEWAY AND COPY THE SOCKET ADDRESS TO THE MAIN SOCKET ADDRESS (74). THEN, SENSOR DATA CAN BE SENT TO THE DESIRED COMMUNICATOR GATEWAY (76). AFTER THE DATA IS SENT, THE SENSOR WILL COPY BACK THE SOCKET ADDRESS OF THE MAIN GATEWAY IN THE MAIN SOCKET ADDRESS (78).
Abstract:
Described herein is an authentication method that enables a new node (400) to join a wireless sensor network, which comprises a plurality of authenticating nodes (200) that previously has joined the wireless sensor network in a proper network configured security setup, by having the new node (400) and each authenticating node (200) to mutually authenticate each other. In general, the new node (400) requests to join the wireless sensor network and thereby instigating each authenticating node (200) that is nearby to the new node (400) to authenticate the new node (400). Once the new node (400) has been successfully authenticated, the new node (400) will proceed to authenticate each authenticating node (200) that is involved in the authentication process. Thereafter, the new node (400) is allowed to join the wireless sensor network, provided that each authenticating node (200) has also been successfully authenticated by the new node (400).

Abstract:
THE INVENTION RELATES TO A METHOD TO ENABLE THE WIRELESS NODES IN A WIRELESS MESH NETWORK COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER AND THE GATEWAYS WITHOUT THE NEED OF MULTI HOPPING AND ROUTING WHICH REQUIRES MASTER GATEWAYS IN THE NETWORK WITH HIGH TRANSMISSION POWER IN ORDER TO TRANSMIT THE MASTER CARRIER SIGNAL FOR COVERING THE NETWORK. THE WIRELESS NODES WILL USE THE LOCATION INFORMATION OF THE DESIRED DESTINATION TO CALCULATE THE CORRECT TIME AND PHASE. WHEN THE NODES SEND THEIR SIGNAL AT THE RIGHT TIME AND PHASE, IT WILL BE COMBINED WITH THE MASTER CARRIER SIGNAL AND THE COMBINED SIGNAL WILL HAVE THE CORRECT ANGLE TOWARDS THE DESIRED DESTINATION.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for multi-channel handoff in a personal area network. This invention presents a solution for mobile node (120) to get associated with a new gateway (110b) that operates on different channel than the mobile node's current gateway (110a). The mobile node (120) constantly checks the signal strength of the current gateway (110a) that it is associated with and collects channel information from other new gateways (110b). Mobile node (120) disassociates with the current gateway (110a) when its RSSI value dropped below the predefined threshold and associate with new gateway (110b) based on the gateway priority set in its gateway information list (123).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to method and system for transmitting and receiving data packets in a wireless multi-hop network. A gateway (100) in the network schedules each access point (200) to operate in user mode and relay mode, wherein at any period of time only the access points (200) in a specific hop operate in the user mode while the access points (200) in other hops operate in the relay mode. During the user mode, the access point (200) is able to communicate with its user devices (300) while only able to transmit to its neighbouring access points (200). During the relay mode, the access point (200) is able to communicate with its neighbouring access points (200) while only able to transmit to its user devices (300).
