  • Patent number: 11422518
    Abstract: A signal communication system comprising a number of signal nodes arranged to interact physically with their environment and to convert between physical properties and corresponding signals, a number of client nodes arranged to receive or send the signals to interact with the signal nodes, and a distribution system arranged to switch the signals between the signal nodes and the client nodes. The signal nodes are communicatively coupled to the distribution system via injection transport channels to send and receive injection transport representations of signal representations of the signals; the client nodes are communicatively coupled to the distribution system via distribution transport channels to send and receive distribution transport representations of signal representations of the signals; and the signal nodes are communicatively coupled to the client nodes to transport the signal representations using the injection transport channels, distribution system and distribution transport channels.
