SMART IOT END DEVICES SUPERVISED BY A GATEWAY DEVICE AND SECURE METHODS OF OPERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240013598 titled 'SMART IOT END DEVICES SUPERVISED BY A GATEWAY DEVICE AND SECURE METHODS OF OPERATION

Simplified Explanation

The present invention is a system for smart IoT end devices supervised by a smart gateway device at a secure site, along with secure methods of operating the system. The system includes an AI module connected to a server, which polls the quality of service of a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN), the smart gateway, the smart IoT devices' communication links, cellular networks, and any available network including an IoT network at the secure site. The AI module selects an optimal security level of operation based on different access scenarios. The highest security level is endowed to access scenario a, while access scenario e is for offline emergency operation. The gateway and the smart IoT devices are monitored at the server, ensuring 24/7 supervision.

  • The system consists of smart IoT end devices supervised by a smart gateway device at a secure site.
  • An AI module connected to a server polls the quality of service of various networks and selects the optimal security level of operation.
  • Different access scenarios are considered, with access scenario a having the highest security level and access scenario e for offline emergency operation.
  • The gateway and smart IoT devices are continuously monitored at the server, providing round-the-clock supervision.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Smart home automation systems
  • Industrial IoT monitoring and control systems
  • Smart city infrastructure management
  • Environmental monitoring and conservation systems

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures secure and reliable communication between IoT devices and the gateway
  • Provides flexibility in selecting the appropriate security level based on different access scenarios
  • Enables continuous monitoring and supervision of the gateway and IoT devices

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced security and privacy for IoT devices and data
  • Improved efficiency and reliability of IoT systems
  • Real-time monitoring and control capabilities
  • Enables remote management and troubleshooting of IoT devices


Original Abstract Submitted

the present invention discloses smart iot end devices ( etc.) system () supervised by a smart gateway device () at a secure site and secure methods of operating the system. an ai module (), connected to a server () in the system (), polls a quality of service of a low-power wide-area network (lpwan) (), the smart gateway, the smart iot devices communication links (lr,sr), cellular () and any available network (including an iot () at the secure site) and selects an optimal security level of operation according to any one of access scenarios a-e; access scenario a is endowed with the highest security level, whilst access scenario e is for off-line emergency operation. in all scenarios of operations, the gateway () and the smart iot devices () are monitored at the server () ensuring 24-hours 7-days a week supervision.
