Abstract
A method and apparatus for a multi-compatible 6LoWPAN gateway system may include a main processor directing operation of a plurality of wireless adapters, each of the plurality of wireless adapters operably connected to one of a plurality of microcontroller processors, and each microcontroller processor executing code instructions of a real-time operating system. The main processor may route an incoming transmission to a first of the plurality of wireless adapters, and, upon notification from a first microcontroller processor operably connected to the first of the plurality of wireless adapters that the first wireless adapter did not receive the incoming transmission, or that the first real-time operating system did not process a data packet within the incoming transmission, may route the incoming transmission to a next wireless adapter operably connected to a next microcontroller processor until the data packet has been processed.
