Abstract: A computing device includes: a housing configured to receive a supply of print media; a print head supported by the housing; a wireless communications subsystem supported by the housing; a controller supported by the housing, the controller configured to: control the communications subsystem to detect a data collection device; obtain, from the data collection device via the communications subsystem, monitoring data collected by the data collection device indicative of an environmental condition; transmit the monitoring data; receive a command based on the monitoring data; and control the print head to apply indicia to the print media according to the command.

Abstract: A system for wireless communication is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of antenna nodes configured to receive an incoming signal, extract versions of an incoming packet from the incoming signal, and send the versions on a packet-based network. The system also includes a receive processing node configured to receive the versions of the incoming packet from the antenna nodes, determine if any of the versions are complete packets, and recover a complete version of the incoming packet based on the versions if none of the versions is complete. The system also includes a transmit processing node configured to transmit an outgoing packet on one or more of the antenna nodes based on quality feedback data.
