GROUP MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL FOR IoT DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240259766 titled 'GROUP MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL FOR IoT DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system and method for managing Internet of Things (IoT) devices. An access point (AP) establishes a wireless communication link with an IoT device, places it in a group-management mode, and enables management operations.
- An access point (AP) establishes a wireless communication link with an IoT device.
- The AP transmits a management-mode-enable signal with a management identifier to the IoT device.
- The IoT device scans nearby APs in group-management mode.
- The AP adds the IoT device to a management group upon receiving a response with the management identifier.
- The AP broadcasts management requests to IoT devices in the management group.
- IoT devices in the management group respond with management response packets confirming the execution of the requested operations.
Key Features and Innovation
- Wireless communication link establishment between AP and IoT devices.
- Group-management mode for IoT devices to scan nearby APs.
- Management identifier association for efficient device grouping.
- Broadcast of management requests to multiple IoT devices.
- Confirmation of management operation execution through response packets.

Original Abstract Submitted
one aspect can provide a system and method for managing internet of things (iot) devices. during operation, an access point (ap) can establish a wireless communication link with an iot device, transmit a management-mode-enable signal indicating a management identifier associated with the ap to the iot device, and place the iot device in a group-management mode to scan nearby aps. in response to receiving, from the iot device, a response indicating the management identifier, the ap can add the iot device to a management group associated with the ap. the ap can further broadcast, to a plurality of iot devices belonging to the management group, a management-request packet specifying a management operation and receive, from an iot device belonging to the management group, a management-response packet confirming execution of the management operation specified by the management-request packet.
