Abstract:
Systems and processes that may be implemented to maintain an up-to-date communication bridge between an Internet-of-Things (IoT) physical network and a cellular telecom network are described herein. The systems and processes may eliminate an incompatibility of a hub device with physical layer technologies (PLTs), e.g. 4G or 5G technology, or various IoT protocols. The hub device may include one or more FPGAs that are configured to facilitate communication using one or more PLTs and/or IoT protocols. The hub device may receive information corresponding to different PLTs and/or IoT protocols, e.g. that the hub device is currently incompatible with, and may reprogram one or more of the FPGAs based on this information to eliminate such incompatibilities.
