Design of communication interface for M2M-based positioning and monitoring system

The idea of M2M platform proposes a completely new system architecture for positioning and monitoring applications with wider coverage and higher communication efficiency. With the comparison of the original communication mode to the M2M- based one, the communication interface is changed in the new communication solution for the application side accessing to the platform, which is finally designed into two parts according to the interface specification for M2M platform. The one is the local web service which provides methods for the platform to transmit data from the terminal side, and the other is the communication service software developed based on the SDK package from the M2M platform. This interface has been implemented into an actual application for the construction machinery monitoring, and the communication work between the terminals and the control center through M2M platform performs efficiently and reliably.
