Patent number: 10999269Abstract: A set of certificates are received at a gateway device from a management server, where each one of the certificates was generated by the management server upon determination that the gateway device is associated with a respective wireless sensing device (WSD). The gateway device receives from a first WSD an advertisement message indicating it is available for connecting to a gateway device. In response to confirming based on a first certificate of the set of certificates associated with the first WSD, that it is authorized to connect to the WSD, the gateway device transmits to the first WSD the first certificate and an identifier of the gateway device for enabling authentication of the gateway device at the WSD. The gateway device receives data from the first WSD, upon confirmation at the WSD that it is authorized to connect with the gateway device.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2019Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: Samsara Networks Inc.Inventors: John Bicket, James Michael Rowson, Chase Phillips

Patent number: 10462029Abstract: An example system may include a first device connected over respective communications interfaces to a plurality of second devices. The first device may establish respective remote terminals between the first device and one or more second devices. Establishing the respective remote terminals may indicate that the devices are in an online state. The first device may periodically update respective heartbeat files on the second devices. A respective second device may detect that a pre-determined time period has elapsed since the heartbeat file was updated. The respective second device may determine that a respective remote terminal between the first device and the respective second device has been terminated. Determining that the remote terminal has been terminated may indicate that the device is in an offline state. The respective second device may reset itself so as to transition the respective second device from the offline state to the online state.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2017Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Manish Lachwani, Pratyus Patnaik, Abhinav Singh, Mark Larson, Chase Phillips

Patent number: 10206107Abstract: Methods and systems for secure data offload in a sensor network. The method comprises offloading data indicative of sensor measurements from a wireless sensing device to a gateway device through a first secure communication channel; and storing the data at the gateway device if there is not currently a second secure communication channel established between the gateway device and the management server. The method continues with offloading the data to the management server when the second secure communication channel is established; and reconciling the data at the management server to generate reconciled sensor measurements in which duplicates have been removed.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2018Date of Patent: February 12, 2019Assignee: Samsara Networks Inc.Inventors: John Bicket, James Michael Rowson, Chase Phillips

Patent number: 10085149Abstract: A method in a wireless sensing device for authenticating a gateway device of a sensor network is described. The method includes receiving a certificate where the certificate was generated by the management server upon a determination that the gateway device and the wireless sensing device are associated and is a digital document including data and a digital signature, where the digital signature was generated by the management server based on the data and a private key of the management server, and where the data includes a first identifier and a second identifier; confirming that the wireless sensing device is authorized to upload data to the gateway device; in response to the confirming that the wireless sensing device is authorized to upload data to the gateway device, uploading to the gateway device data indicative of a plurality of sensor measurements taken over time to be transmitted to the management server.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2016Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Inventors: John Bicket, James Michael Rowson, Chase Phillips
