Abstract
In one aspect, a method for enabling wired sensors to be coupled to a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) is provided. A first wired device that is coupled to the LPWAN gateway device via a first wired medium may be identified at a LPWAN gateway device. A first virtual node may be instantiated at the LPWAN gateway device, the first virtual node assigned to provide protocol conversion between the LPWAN and the first wired device. A request to join the LPWAN as a node that does not require Radio Frequency (RF) management may be transmitted from the first virtual node at the LPWAN gateway.
