  • Patent number: 12133150
    Abstract: Technologies for adaptive bandwidth reduction for an Internet of Things (IoT) gateway device are disclosed. The IoT gateway device receives data from one or more sensors, and determines a mathematical model to represent the sensor data. Certain aspects of the mathematical model used, such as the quantity of coefficients and the precision of the coefficients are determined based on the sensor data. For example, if the sensor data is within a normal range, a relatively small number of coefficients might be used, but if the sensor data is past or near an alert threshold, a larger number of coefficients might be used, which allows for the behavior of the sensor data to be better represented.
