Abstract
A method including receiving a data packet over a network, the data packet having a size. The method also includes parsing the data packet into a header and a body. The method also includes identifying a protocol type from the header and the size. The method also includes identifying a signal characteristic of signal data in the body. The method also includes identifying a classification of a source sensor which generated the data packet based on the protocol type and the signal characteristic. The method also includes generating a metadata file based on the source sensor. The method also includes labeling the data packet with the metadata file to form a labeled data packet.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving a data packet over a network, the data packet having a size;
- parsing the data packet into a header and a body;
- identifying a protocol type from the header and the size;
- identifying a signal characteristic of signal data in the body;
- identifying a classification of a source sensor which generated the data packet based on the protocol type and the signal characteristic;
- generating a metadata file based on the source sensor;
- and
- labeling the data packet with the metadata file to form a labeled data packet.
A method comprising:
- operating a tool on a workpiece;
- sensing, using a source sensor, a parameter of the workpiece while operating the tool on the workpiece;
- transmitting, by the source sensor via a network, a data packet containing information regarding the parameter to a computer, the data packet having a size;
- parsing, by the computer, the data packet into a header and a body;
- identifying, by the computer, a protocol type from the header and the size;
- identifying, by the computer, a signal characteristic of signal data in the body;
- identifying, by the computer, a classification of the source sensor which generated the data packet based on the protocol type and the signal characteristic;
- generating, by the computer, a metadata file based on the source sensor;
- labeling, by the computer, the data packet with the metadata file to form a labeled data packet;
- passing, by the computer, the labeled data packet to a tool control system;
- and
- modifying, using the tool control system, operation of the tool on the workpiece.
A system comprising:
- a communication interface configured to receive a data packet over a network, the data packet having a size;
- a data packet parser configured to parse the data packet into a header and a body;
- a data repository storing a classification system;
- a processor programmed to:
- identify a protocol type from the header and the size;
- identify a signal characteristic of signal data in the body;
- apply the classification system to identify a classification of a source sensor which generated the data packet based on a combination of the protocol type and the signal characteristic;
- generate a metadata file based on the source sensor;
- label the data packet with a metadata file to form a labeled data packet;
- and
- transmit the labeled data packet.
