US Patent 11924270 Method and system for transferring data

Systems, methods and computer programs for transferring data in a communication system are described. The communication system has a first node arranged to send data to a plurality of second nodes using a first protocol. The first protocol allows the transfer of data of a first type. At least one of the second nodes additionally requires data of a second type, which is not included in the data sent according to the first protocol. First data, of the first type, is transferred to a plurality of the second nodes using the first protocol. Second data, of the second type, is stored in a memory. Subsequently, in response to a request, access to the second data is provided to the second node.
