Abstract:
A method, apparatus and a wireless communication system to derive security key(s) over an air link in a secure manner by sending by a mobile station over the air a single direction permutation of a mobile station ID, establishing keys with the base station and sending the mobile station real ID in a secure manner.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus, comprising a network adapter configured for wireless communication using more than one technology, wherein the network adapter is configured to share a plurality of shared hardware (HW) components by generating a notification when a shared HW resource becomes available to a requesting device that needs the HW resource, and registering the requesting device so that it will receive the notifications when generated; and wherein upon receiving the notifications, the requesting device will wake up and perform a pending action.
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus, comprising a network adapter configured for wireless communication using more than one technology, and wherein the network adapter is configured to share a plurality of shared hardware components by limiting access to the air to one comm only at given time by designating one comm that owns the shared hardware components as a primary comm and all other comms are secondary comms, wherein the primary comm allows the secondary comms to use the shared hardware components when it is in an idle-state but when the primary comm returns from the idle state, it claims ownership of the shared resources and the secondary comms release the shared resources.
Abstract:
A system and method for updating a security key at a base station (BS) is disclosed. The method comprises the operation of transmitting a handover command from the base station to a mobile station. The operation of incrementing a base station instance of an authentication key counter at the base station follows. The next operation of the method can be calculating a new local authentication key (AK*) at the base station using the base station instance of the authentication key counter and an authentication key (AK). The AK may be previously obtained from an authenticator. The method further includes communicating by the base station with the mobile station using the new local authentication key after a predetermined action time.

Abstract:
An advanced relay station 110 (ARS) configured to interface with an advanced mobile station 120 (AMS) to perform initial ranging, to transmit a flow identifier assigned by the (ARS) to the (AMS) and to transmit a station identifier (STID) assigned by the (ARS) to the (AMS). The ARS can transmit the STID to an advanced base station 105 (ABS). The AMS may also execute capability negotiation, authentication key agreements and registration procedures with the ARS. Further control operations which may be performed by the advanced relay station are handover, security, sleep and idle control operations. The claims relate to an advanced mobile station, a method of wireless networking and an advanced relay station.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, an apparatus comprises a secure storage to store an entry having an identifier of a device to be paired with the apparatus and a master key shared between the apparatus and the device, and a connection logic to enable the apparatus to be securely connected to the device according to a connection protocol in which the device is authenticated based on the identifier received from the device and the master key. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
