Multi-Application Transceiver with Cloud-Based Signal Processing

The patent extracts the complex data processing functionality from the sensor device itself and relocates it to a remote cloud-based system. The sensor device only performs simple signal collection and transmission, while the cloud system handles the complex analysis, filtering, and interpretation. This extraction significantly reduces the computational hardware requirements and energy consumption of the sensor device while maintaining high measurement precision through powerful remote processing capabilities.

The patent introduces a cloud-based intermediary system that mediates between the simple sensor device and the complex data processing requirements. This intermediary cloud system receives raw signals from the sensor, performs sophisticated analysis using remote computing resources, and returns processed information to the sensor device or end user. The cloud intermediary absorbs the complexity and hardware requirements, allowing the sensor device to remain simple and energy-efficient.

The patent extracts the energy-intensive complex data processing tasks from the sensor device and relocates them to a remote cloud system. The sensor device only consumes energy for simple signal collection and transmission, while the cloud system handles the computationally demanding analysis, filtering, and interpretation using its own processing resources. This extraction dramatically reduces the energy consumption of the sensor device while maintaining high data processing quality through the cloud's powerful computing capabilities.

The patent introduces a cloud-based intermediary that mediates between the low-power sensor device and the high-energy processing requirements. The cloud intermediary receives minimal data from the sensor, performs sophisticated energy-intensive analysis using remote computing resources, and returns processed information back to the sensor device. This intermediary approach allows the sensor to operate with minimal energy consumption while the cloud system absorbs the energy costs of complex processing.

The patent implements a universal sensor device that can serve multiple applications through software configuration rather than hardware design. The sensor hardware is designed with generic capabilities to detect various types of signals, and the specific application functionality is provided through software algorithms and processing rules that can be loaded and switched on the cloud system. This allows the same physical sensor to be used for different monitoring applications (e.g., heartbeat detection, respiration monitoring, movement detection) by simply changing the software processing configuration, thereby achieving both application-specific precision and multi-application adaptability.

The patent makes the sensor system dynamic by allowing the processing algorithms and detection parameters to be changed and reconfigured based on the required application. Instead of being fixed for a single application, the system can dynamically switch between different processing modes and algorithms through software updates and configuration changes. This dynamic reconfigurability enables the sensor to adapt to different applications while maintaining the precision needed for each specific task, as the processing logic can be optimized for the current application context.
