Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are presented herein for providing lower level physical-layer gateway functionalities and upper-level application functionalities; a system designed with flexible configurations in order to support a wide range of connected applications. The system includes a processor that executes machine instructions to perform operations. The operations comprise: receiving sensor data from a sensor device located in a building; converting the sensor data from a raw state to a physical measurement; and activating an abatement device situated in the building as a function of the physical measurement.

Claims (25)

1. A system, comprising:

a memory to store instructions; and

a processor, communicatively coupled to the memory, that facilitates execution of the instructions to perform operations, comprising:

receiving sensor data from a sensor device located in a building;

converting the sensor data from a raw state to a physical measurement;

activating an abatement device situated in the building as a function of the physical measurement; and

in response to receiving frequency agility data representing a request to modify a wireless frequency channel employed to perform uplink transmissions from a first wireless frequency band to a second wireless frequency band, adjusting transmission parameters to use the second wireless frequency band.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the sensor device measures a level of an airborne pollutant circulating in the building.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the converting further includes using a calibration equation to transform the sensor data from the raw state to the physical measurement.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the sensor data is subjected to a sampling process that compresses the sensor data to reduce a transmission time required to broadcast the sensor data.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprising broadcasting a notification message regarding the physical measurement in response to the physical measurement exceeding a defined threshold.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the abatement device is included a set of devices that comprises a ventilator, an air conditioner, a humidifier, an extraction fan, a heater, a cooler, a chiller, or a blower.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activating further comprising actuating a controller to open a window or a door.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activating further comprising broadcasting a notification message using a paging service, a email, a short message service, a multi messaging service.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the activating further comprising activating an audible alarm or a visible alarm.

10. A method, comprising:

receiving, by a system comprising a processor, raw data associated with a sensor device situated in a habitable structure;

utilizing, by the system, a conversion table associated with the sensor device to convert the raw data into a unit of measurement;

based on the unit of measurement exceeding a defined set point, facilitating, by the system, actuating of a remediation device situated in the habitable structure to abate an airborne pollutant present in the habitable structure; and

in response to receiving frequency agility data representing a request to modify a wireless frequency channel employed to perform uplink transmissions from a first wireless frequency band to a second wireless frequency band, adjusting a transmission parameter to use the second wireless frequency band.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the sensor device measures a level of an airborne contaminant circulating in the habitable structure.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the sensor data is subjected to an intelligent sampling process that compresses the sensor data to reduce a transmission time required to transmit the sensor data.

13. The system of claim 10 , further comprising transmitting a notification message regarding the unit of measurement in response to the unit of measurement falling below a configurable set point.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the remediation device is included in a set of devices that comprises a ventilator, an air conditioner, a humidifier, an extraction fan, a heater, a cooler, a chiller, or a blower.

15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the actuating further comprising actuating a controller to open a window or a door.
