Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A system to control deployment of sensor devices over wireless networks, the system comprising:
one or more processing devices; and
memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the one or more processing devices and having stored therein processor-readable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:
causing broadcasting of a first electronic communication on one or more channels of a plurality of different channels, where the first electronic communication is broadcasted in a first time slot of a time interval;
processing a second electronic communication from a sensor device in response to the broadcasting of the first electronic communication, where the second electronic communication is received in a second time slot of the time interval;
consequent to the second electronic communication:
reporting discovery of the sensor device to a service provider system, and
receiving an authorization of the sensor device from the service provider system;

causing transmitting of a third electronic communication to the sensor device in response to the second electronic communication, the third electronic communication:
transmitted in a third time slot of the time interval; and
comprising an indication of an assignment of a fourth time slot of the time interval to the sensor device;

processing one or more transmissions from the sensor device in one or more subsequent instances of the fourth time slot of the time interval; and
based at least in part on the one or more transmissions from the sensor device, causing transmitting of data to one or more computer systems via one or more networks.
