Abstract: Methods and systems for wireless firmware upgrades are provided. In one embodiment, a system comprises: at least one master source radio and one or more client radio devices in wireless communication with the master source radio. The master source radio transmits a firmware image block broadcast to the client radio devices comprising sequentially transmitted firmware image blocks, wherein the master source radio transmits each block a plurality of times. Each of the plurality of sequentially transmitted firmware image blocks is transmitted as payload within a broadcast block, the broadcast block further comprising metadata associated with the payload. The client radio devices each include a firmware memory and a boot loader. The boot loader assembles a firmware image from the firmware image block broadcast and stores the firmware image into the memory. Transmission of the firmware image block broadcast is not controlled using feedback from the client radio devices.

Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and systems for a cloud enabled virtual gateway. The virtual gateway can masquerade to a cloud-based application as a gateway at a geographic location. The virtual gateway can also receive a request from the cloud-based application for a device at the geographic location. The virtual gateway can then communicate with a third-party system to satisfy the request where the third-party system is communicatively coupled to the device.
