TECHNOLOGIES FOR SCHEDULING TIME SENSITIVE CYCLICAL NETWORK TRAFFIC IN REAL-TIME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240134680 titled 'TECHNOLOGIES FOR SCHEDULING TIME SENSITIVE CYCLICAL NETWORK TRAFFIC IN REAL-TIME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes technologies for scheduling time-sensitive cyclical network traffic in real-time using an Internet-of-Things (IoT) device with sensors and data processing capabilities.

  • The IoT device collects sensor data and stores it in a data buffer.
  • It allocates a packet descriptor for the sensor data and populates it with a cyclic data port pointer.
  • The device queues the packet descriptor into a media access control (MAC) unit for transmission.
  • It fetches the sensor data, packetizes it into a network packet, and transmits it to a target computing device based on a launch time.
  • The device updates the launch time and requeues the packet descriptor for further transmission.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various industries such as smart cities, industrial automation, and healthcare for real-time monitoring and control of networked devices.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient scheduling of time-sensitive cyclical network traffic. 2. Real-time transmission of sensor data to target computing devices.

Benefits

1. Improved network traffic management. 2. Enhanced real-time data transmission capabilities. 3. Increased efficiency in data processing and transmission.

Potential Commercial Applications

Original Abstract Submitted

technologies for scheduling time-sensitive cyclical network traffic in real-time include an internet-of-things (iot) device that includes at least one sensor for collecting sensor data. the iot device is configured to store the collected sensor data in a data buffer, allocate a packet descriptor for the sensor data, and populate the allocated packet descriptor with a cyclic data port pointer indicative of a location of the data buffer. the iot device is additionally configured to queue the packet descriptor into a media access control (mac) unit transmit direct memory access (dma) of the iot device, fetch the sensor data, and packetize the fetched data to form a network packet. further, the iot device is configured to transmit the network packet to a target computing device based on a launch time, update the launch time, and requeue the packet descriptor into the mac unit transmit dma. other embodiments are described herein.
