METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COLLECTING AND TRANSMITTING DATA

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem in which lack of a common communication scheme or transmission power issues may hinder a legacy device from being able to effectively send data or other content to more advanced networks, because wireless communication devices implement numerous schemes and procedures in order to operatively communicate with other wireless devices but legacy devices communicate via legacy communications schemes which may or may not be supported by devices on more advanced networks.SOLUTION: Disclosed herein is a device and method for registering devices on advanced networks as well as providing operative communications between a legacy device and an advanced network. The legacy device may contain data, such as sensor data, which is collected on a network outside the communication range/abilities of the legacy device. An intermediary device may receive the data via a first communication scheme and send the device to a server collecting the data via a second communication scheme.
