DETERMINING, ENCODING, AND TRANSMISSION OF CLASSIFICATION VARIABLES AT END-DEVICE FOR REMOTE MONITORING

Techniques for operating a remote monitoring system are provided. An example method according to these techniques includes sensing one or more characteristics associated with a monitored asset to produce sensor data, and dynamically configuring operating parameters of the monitoring system based at least in part on current operating conditions of the monitoring system. The example method also includes extracting features from the sensor data using the feature extraction component to produce extracted feature information, and selecting at least a subset of the extracted feature information using the feature extraction component to produce active feature information based at least in part on the current operating conditions of the monitoring system. The example method also includes sending, through a communications network, the active feature information to a server.
