Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a cellular LTE base transceiver station having an RF coverage area and configured for RF communication with at least one sensor device and at least one communicating entity each deployed in the RF coverage area, the cellular LTE base transceiver station being connected to a back haul network; a base station optimization server that is connected to the cellular LTE base transceiver station and to the back haul network in parallel with the cellular LTE base transceiver station, the base station optimization server being configured to communicatively connect to the at least one sensor device and to the at least one communicating entity via LTE bearers that are redirected through the cellular LTE base transceiver station for the at least one sensor device and the at least one communicating entity, and comprising a publish-subscribe broker communications facility to which the at least one sensor device and the at least one communicating entity are connected via their redirected bearers, wherein the publish-subscribe broker communications facility is adapted to route packets of sensor data, on behalf of the at least one sensor device that publishes the sensor data, from the publish-subscribe broker communications facility to an application, wherein the application subscribes to the sensor data, and wherein the application generates application data that is at least in part sensor data from the at least one sensor device, and wherein the publish-subscribe broker communications facility is adapted to route packets of application data, on behalf of the application that publishes the application data, from the publish-subscribe broker communications facility to the at least one communicating entity, wherein the at least one communicating entity subscribes to the application data; and a conferencing service, wherein the conferencing service, in conjunction with the application, is configured to collect, process, store, and distribute the sensor data through the publish-subscribe broker communications facility.
