TCP-IP Over GPRS With Modbus

The document discusses maintaining reliable TCP connections over GPRS using a GSM/GPRS module to connect devices using TCP/IP and Modbus protocols. The GSM network automatically closes idle TCP connections, so the author wants to detect and maintain connections reliably, including detecting half-open connections. The GSM module acts as a server, opening a socket on port 502 to wait for client connections to request and receive data periodically at intervals of 3 minutes or longer.

I am working to a project involving a GSM/GPRS module which role it is to connect clients with
some devices over the internet using TCP-IP and Modbus protocol. Now I am studying the TCP
connecting scheme.

As far as I understood , the GSM network automatically close a TCP connection if there is not
any traffic on it for some time.

I want to detect and maintain TCP connection as reliable as possible. Also to detect half-open
connections.

The connection procedure is as follows: my GSM module acts as a server, so it opens a socket on
port 502 and wait for clients to read data. The client can read data periodically at 3 minutes or
longer.

When a client connects with my module , it requests for some data, the module sends the
requested data and wait for other requests, and keeps the connection open
