An RFID magnetic field powered translating device that acts as a gateway between mobile devices and radio frequency identification (RFID) enabled readers. The gateway enables the portable device to emulate access credentials for physical access, computer credentials, licenses and payment cards using Bluetooth communication between the portable mobile device and translating device; and RFID emulation at either 125 khz or 13.56 MHz between the translating device and the RFID reader.

A cell site gateway located at a cell site of an access network receives one or more first packets, from a network gateway, via a first interface of the cell site gateway. The cell site gateway receives one or more second packets, from a cellular base station, via a second interface of the cell site gateway. The cell site gateway receives control information, from a control server, via a third interface of the cell site gateway, wherein the control information is for a forwarding layer of the cell site gateway, the control information comprising a first label for removal by the forwarding layer and a second label for attachment by the forwarding layer. The forwarding layer of the cell site gateway removes the first label from the one or more first packets. The forwarding layer of the cell site gateway attaches the second label to the one or more second packets. The forwarding layer of the cell site gateway transmits the one or more second packets to the network gateway.

A configured mode of operation of a wireless sensor node unit can selectively activate a first subset of sensor channels of data and selectively deactivate a second subset of sensor channels of data. The configured mode of operation customizes the sensor functionality in the wireless sensor node unit in support of the delivery of data streams to customers.

A device determines a connection status of a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) communication interface and a wireless Local Area Network (LAN) communication interface, and stores the connection status in a queue. The device waits, subsequent to storing the connection status, for expiration of a time delay; and retrieves, subsequent to the expiration of the time delay, the connection status or another connection status from the queue. The device sends, based on the retrieved connection status or the other connection status, a service validation request to a server associated with the PLMN, and receives from the server, in response to the service validation request, a validation response that authorizes service delivery to the device via a PLMN.

A method of operating a network server, such as a mobile application gateway, connect devices on a cellular or carrier network with individual networks, such as enterprise voice and data networks or residential networks. The effects of the present invention are far reaching in terms of transferring effective call control from the cellular network into the control of the individual network, such as the enterprise, and enabling new business models for the purchase of cellular service from a public cellular carrier by an enterprise.

A modification of a sensor data management system to enable discrete sensor applications. A sensor data control system enables discrete sensor applications to control the configuration, collection, processing, and distribution of sensor data produced by selected sensors at various monitored locations. The sensor service offered by the sensor data control system can be leveraged by any sensor application having an interest in any part of one or more monitored locations.

A system, method and apparatus for augmenting a building control system domain. A sensor network platform can be configured to collect data based on measurements from sensors outside of a legacy building control system domain, and to present information based on the collected data to a known interface supported by the legacy building control system. In one embodiment, the collected data can undergo customized processing by an operation center outside of the legacy building control system domain.

A data exchange method and apparatus, where the method includes: sending, by a primary base station, a request of setting up an X3 interface to a secondary base station, wherein the X3 interface has a capability of bidirectional data communication; receiving, by the primary base station, a response of setting up the X3 interface sent by the secondary base station; and performing, by the primary base station, bidirectional data exchange with the secondary base station using the X3 interface.
