Method and system for efficient communication

This invention describes a specialized hub that helps small electronic devices communicate. It takes signals from a short-range wireless connection that doesn't use standard internet protocols and translates them so they can be sent over a regular cellular network or Wi-Fi. The claims specifically describe this as a 'central device' with these capabilities.

Why it matters: Filed before the widespread adoption of IoT standards like Matter and Thread. The claims describe a central device bridging non-IP short-range wireless to cellular or WLAN, which is now a critical function for many smart home and industrial IoT deployments.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateCustom electronics, multiple wireless protocols, software logic
