Abstract

The present invention is related to a method of transferring sensor data in a delay insensitive network through wireless medium conforming to WiFi standards using smart devices as mules. The method works seamlessly without using extra processing cycles or data bandwidth than what would normally be used by the standards. The method also works without disturbing the owner of the smart device (Mule) for any permission. The innovative method uniquely embeds the sensor data as part of the IP address and uses the address as the carrying mechanism of the data itself. When the smart device reaches the vicinity of the collection hub, the method in the collection hub uniquely elicits the sensor data which is embedded in the IP address by initiating an ARP sequence at the smart device. Once the data is obtained the connection is terminated. The method works in any smart device that uses WiFi standard.
