METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR A DISTRIBUTED RADIO COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK

摘要

The present disclosure is directed to methods and systems for providing a distributed radio communications network. Each of a first gateway and a second gateway may separately receive modulated signals comprising at least a portion of data from a first node of a plurality of geographically-dispersed nodes. The modulated signals may be wirelessly transmitted as radio frequency (RF) signals from the first node, the data gathered or generated by the first node at a first location. A server may receive the modulated signals from the first gateway and the second gateway. As configured by software-defined radio (SDR) software, the server may perform processing of the separately received modulated signals to recover the data. The processing may include demodulation of the modulated signals.

1. A system for providing a distributed radio communications network, the system comprising:
a first node of a plurality of geographically-dispersed nodes, the first node gathering or generating data at a first location; a first gateway and a second gateway, separately receiving modulated signals comprising at least a portion of the data from the first node, the modulated signals wirelessly transmitted as radio frequency (RF) signals from the first node; and a server receiving the modulated signals from the first gateway and the second gateway, the server configured by software-defined radio (SDR) software to perform processing of the separately received modulated signals to recover the data, the processing including demodulation of the modulated signals.
