    Patent number: 11716772
    Abstract: System and method enable rapid prototyping of an Internet of Things (IoT) device equipped with a modem. The system creates an abstraction layer subsuming a modem AT command set, where the abstraction layer provides a higher-level functionality than the modem AT command set. A function associated with the abstraction layer includes multiple function calls to the modem AT command set. The system can receive an input indicating an instruction to initiate a connection between the modem and a telecommunication network. The system can invoke a particular function associated with the abstraction layer to establish the connection between the modem and the telecommunication network.
