1. A system for supporting machine-to-machine communications, the system comprising: a wireless module for changing a processor between a sleep state and an active state, for changing a radio between a radio off state and a connected state, for recording a private key and a wireless module identity in a memory, and for sending a message comprising an Internet Protocol (IP) packet and receiving a response, wherein the message includes (i) a module digital signature processed using the private key, (ii) a sensor measurement, and (iii) the wireless module identity, wherein the wireless module, in sequence, (a) changes the processor from the sleep state to the active state, (b) changes the radio from the radio off state to the connected state, (c) sends the message and receives the response, wherein, after the wireless module receives the response, the wireless module (d) sends a detach message before receiving a radio bearer reconfiguration message and a radio resource control connection release, and then (e) changes the radio to the radio off state and the processor to the sleep state, and wherein the wireless module sends the detach message (x) while the wireless module comprises a 4G radio resource control connected (RRC_CONNECTED) state and (y) before the wireless module utilizes a discontinuous reception (DRX) state.
