Abstract: A device may transmit, to a first device, a first point-to-multipoint message to determine whether to request security information. The security information may be associated with permitting the first device to register with a registration device. The device may receive, from the first device, a point-to-multipoint response that includes first device information associated with connecting to the first device. The device may transmit, to the first device, a second point-to-multipoint message based on the first device information. The device may request and receive the security information from the registration device. The device may provide the security information to the first device to permit the first device to register with the registration device.

Abstract: Techniques described herein may be used to implement a 4G antenna in a wearable device (e.g., a watch) in a manner that optimizes the ability of the antenna to send and receive radio signals while minimizing the user's exposure to radio signals. The antenna may be raised above a base portion and a printed circuit board (PCB) of the wearable device to limit radio signals being absorbed by the user's body, in addition to providing a vertical space between conductive components (such as the PCB), metal nodes to which the PCB is attached, etc.) that might otherwise interfere with radio signals to and from the antenna. The antenna may also be split into two different portions (a first portion and a second portion) in order to limit radio signals from resonating in the antenna for longer than is beneficial.
