Abstract:
Various embodiments relate to a method and system for resuming a secure communication session with a server by a device, including: sending a message to the server requesting the resumption of a secure communication session; receiving from the server a server identifier, a server nonce, and a salt; determining that the device has a shared key with the server based upon the server identifier; determining that the received salt is valid; calculating a salted identifier based upon the shared key and the salt; sending the salted identifier to the server; and resuming the secure communication session with the server.
Abstract:
A method of estimating a clock frequency offset in a mobile device relative to a clock frequency of a controller within a UWB network comprises (a) determining, for each of a plurality of anchors, an anchor clock frequency offset relative to the controller clock frequency, (b) broadcasting an anchor data packet from each anchor, the anchor data packet including the respective anchor clock frequency offset, (c) receiving at least one anchor data packet at the mobile device, (d) estimating a mobile device clock frequency offset relative to the anchor clock frequency of the anchor from which the at least one anchor data packet was received, and (e) estimating the clock frequency offset in the mobile device based on the estimated mobile device clock frequency offset and the anchor clock frequency offset included in the at least one received anchor data packet. Furthermore, a TDoA-based localization method and a TDoA-based localization system are described.
Abstract:
In accordance with a first aspect of the present disclosure, a communication node is provided, comprising: an ultra-wideband (UWB) communication unit configured to enable UWB communication with a plurality of external communication nodes; a processing unit configured to perform ranging sessions between the communication node and said external communication nodes, wherein said ranging sessions comprise one or more distance measurements based on messages exchanged through the UWB communication unit between the communication node and said external communication nodes; and a prioritization unit configured to prioritize said ranging sessions in dependence on at least one previously measured distance between the communication node and the respective external communication nodes. In accordance with a second aspect of the present disclosure, a method of operating a communication node is provided. In accordance with a third aspect of the present disclosure, a computer program is provided, comprising executable instructions for carrying out said method.
Abstract:
A method is provided for authenticating one device to another device. In the method, a first device proves to a second device that a first credential comprising multiple first attributes is valid. The second device proves to the first device that a second credential comprising multiple second attributes is valid. The first device reveals a first attribute of the multiple first attributes to the second device. The second device verifies the first attribute and decides whether to continue revealing attributes. If continuing, the second device reveals to the first device a first attribute of the multiple second attributes. The first device verifies the first attribute of the multiple second attributes. The first device decides whether to continue revealing attributes. Attributes can be revealed until one of the first or second devices end the method or until no attributes of the multiple first and second attributes remain to be revealed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed toward methods and systems which generate a plurality of Read-Only Memory (ROM) codes. In response to generating the ROM codes, an image is generated for each of the plurality of ROM codes. The images for each of the plurality of ROM codes are mapped on a single reticle, and a wafer is provided, which includes a plurality of individual devices. The reticle is utilized, which includes an image for each of the plurality of ROM codes, to print a respective one of the images onto a respective one of the plurality of individual devices.
