Abstract:

The platform for the operations and managements of M2M is one of the telecom carrier’s key platforms which aggregates industry applications together and provides M2M service capabilities. In this paper，the basic M2M service requirements and M2M functional architecture specified by the international standardization organizations were analyzed firstly， and then，based on the telecom carrier’s practical network operations and M2M industry application characteristics，the functional architecture of the platform for the operations and managements of M2M was discussed. Furthermore，a method of communication management and control for M2M device or M2M gateway was presented，which can provide comprehensive communication management services for industry applications.

Key words: Internet of things, M2M service capabilities, M2M platform, terminal management
