Abstract:

Embodiments of the disclosure provide systems and methods for a multi-protocol LPWAN gateway. In the first mode, a transceiver of the gateway device can communicate with wireless devices in a first LPWAN protocol and, in the second mode, the wireless transceiver can communicate with the one or more wireless devices in a second LPWAN protocol. The second LPWAN protocol can be different from the first LPWAN protocol. In response to selecting the first mode, the gateway device can cause the wireless transceiver to conduct communications with the wireless devices using the first LPWAN protocol. In response to selecting the second mode, the gateway device can cause the wireless transceiver to conduct communications with the wireless devices using the second LPWAN protocol.
