Bandwidth management for CloudGate, the intelligent and modular M2M gateway

Speaker: Patrick Willekens & Vahid Tavakol

Company/ Institute: Option

Event: 15th work meeting

Date: 25 February 2014

Abstract:

Option develops the CloudGate, an intelligent and configurable M2M gateway that connects devices to the internet. The gateway is intelligent because a developer can run its own programs on the CloudGate under the OpenWRT Linux environment. It is also configurable because two expansion slots (front and back) allow the developer to configure the interfacing towards the device (RS232, RS485, CAN bus, I/ etc) and configure the interfacing towards the internet (LAN, WLAN, WWAN). The presentation explains this concept in more detail and gives insights how bandwidth management can extend the addressable market to communication intensive applications such as live video streaming.
