SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING VIRTUALIZED CLOUD PEERING EMULATION SERVICES
First Claim
1. A computerized method for providing a user device with a virtualized peering emulation service using an internet protocol (IP) connection between a sensor gateway and a remote virtualized peering emulation service device, comprising:
- receiving, by a sensor gateway, wireless signals from a user device, wherein the wireless signals are associated with a low power communication protocol;
establishing, by the sensor gateway, an IP connection with a remote virtualized peering emulation service device;
generating, by the sensor gateway, a data packet comprising data indicative of the wireless signals received from the user device;
sending, by the sensor gateway, the data packet to the remote virtualized peering emulation service device through the IP connection;
receiving, by the sensor gateway, network traffic through the IP connection from the remote virtualized peering emulation service device, the network traffic comprising data indicative of wireless signals from a remote user device, wherein the wireless signals are associated with the low power communication protocol; and
transmitting, by the sensor gateway, the wireless signals from the remote user device, such that the user device can locally receive the wireless signals from the remote user device, thereby providing a virtualized peering emulation service to the user device such that the user device connects to the remote user device as if the remote user device were a physical device locally connected to the user device.

Abstract
Described herein are techniques for providing a user device with a virtualized peering emulation service using an internet protocol (IP) connection between a sensor gateway (gateway) and a remote virtualized peering emulation service device (emulation device). The gateway receives wireless signals (e.g., Bluetooth, ZigBee, Z-Wave, and/or the like) from the user device. The gateway generates a data packet comprising data indicative of the wireless signals received from the user device and sends the data packet to the emulation device through the IP connection. The gateway receives network traffic through the IP connection from the emulation device, the network traffic comprising data indicative of wireless signals from a remote user device. The gateway transmits the wireless signals from the remote user device, such that the user device can locally receive the wireless signals from the remote user device, thereby providing a virtualized peering emulation service to the user device.
