Cellemetry Explanation: What is Cellemetry? Cellemetry is a breakthrough technology that transmits short messages via the control channels of the cellular network. The analog cellular network (AMPS) is divided into 790 voice channels and 42 control channels. The control channels are used to initiate cellular telephone calls. Once the call is initiated, the cellular system directs the telephone call to a voice channel. The control channels are more robust than the voice channels for several reasons. First, the control channels are digital, unlike the voice channels which are analog. This can be compared to the superior quality of compact disc versus vinyl records. The control channels also operate at higher transmission power than the voice channels, giving better coverage. Finally, the cost of using the control channels is far less than the regular voice channels. By using the cellular network, Cellemetry takes advantage of a proven technology used by millions of cellular users and available virtually everywhere. By far, the analog cellular network is the biggest radio network in the world and there are already 200,000,000 packets of data transmitted over the control channels every day in North America. This represents an average of only 10% of the maximum control channel capacity.

Il a été conçu pour permettre de tirer profit d'une perçée technologique de transmission de données Cellemetry, qui repose sur l'utilisation des canaux de commande du réseau cellulaire Bell mobilité existant. Il permet des communications bi-directionnelles entre des systèmes éloignés et des postes de contrôle. Ce service est tout indiqué pour les systèmes qui nécessitent une surveillance constante de tout changement de condition.
