Abstract
A method for supporting data upload, performed according to an upload schedule, from a mobile gateway device to a backend, includes: reporting, by gateway devices, connectivity information of the gateway devices to a connectivity registry; computing, by the connectivity registry, connectivity patterns based on the connectivity information; retrieving, by a mobile gateway device, one or more of the connectivity patterns for one or more channels for use by the mobile gateway device, based on location information of the mobile gateway device, the retrieved connectivity patterns being selected from the connectivity patterns computed by the connectivity registry; and determining, by the mobile gateway device, a preemptive upload schedule for uploading data from the mobile gateway device to the backend such that the preemptive upload schedule is adjusted based on the retrieved connectivity patterns.
