    摘要: A system for providing a geofence service is disclosed. The geofence service receives an encrypted geospatial index for a specified geofence based on application of a hash function to respective ones of a plurality of locations for the specified geofence in accordance with a secret key that is unknown to the geofence service. The geofence service stores the encrypted geospatial index to a data store according to a geofence identifier for the specified geofence. The geofence service receives an encrypted device location identifier generated based on application of the hash function to a representation of a current location of a user device in accordance with the secret key. The geofence service determines whether the user device is located in a location of the plurality of locations based on a query of the encrypted geospatial index according to the encrypted device location identifier.

    摘要: This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for lightweight, low-latency authentication and association between STAs and APs in wireless local area networks (WLANs). In various aspects, an apparatus may transmit, over a WLAN prior to authentication by an access point (AP), a first Extensible Authentication Protocol Over a Local Area Network (EAPoL) frame including first information associated with an EAPoL protocol and second information associated with an encryption protocol. The apparatus may further receive, over the WLAN, a second EAPoL frame indicating successful authentication by the AP in accordance with the EAPoL protocol, the second EAPoL frame including third information associated with the encryption protocol.

    摘要: Provided are a handover method and apparatus, and a communication device. The method includes: after a terminal determines that a handover failure occurs or when a handover timer times out, sending first information to a target secondary node, wherein the first information includes handover failure information and/or MCG failure information; and the first information is forwarded to a target master node by the target secondary node, and the target master node determines a new handover process, or, the first information is forwarded to the target master node by the target secondary node and then forwarded to an original master node by the target master node, and the original master node determines the new handover process.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a virtual code-based control system, method and program, control device and control signal generation means. A control signal-based control method including a virtual code according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a control signal reception step in which the control module receives the control signal generated at a specific time point from the control signal generation means, the control signal includes a specific virtual code, and the virtual code is generated by combining a plurality of detail codes according to a specific rule; extracting, by the control module, a plurality of detail codes included in the virtual code; and a command search step in which the control module searches a storage location including a specific command based on a plurality of detail codes, wherein the virtual code is generated differently according to the command at the same time point, and is generated differently for each unit count, wherein the control module is built-in or installed in the control device, wherein when a normally generated virtual code is received for each unit count, based on the plurality of detail codes, a search starting point and a search path are determined and the search is performed with the storage location, wherein the unit count is set at a specific time interval and is changed as the time interval elapses.

    摘要: A positioning estimate for a user equipment (UE) is determined based on a combination of uplink-based positioning and downlink-based positioning. Positioning measurements based on downlink signals and uplink signals can be utilized to determine the positioning estimate. The positioning estimate may be computed by the UE or a node of a wireless communications network. This positioning scheme can include two parts, where a first part and second part are either uplink-based or downlink-based, but the two parts are different from each other. Positioning measurements performed in the first part may be sent along with reference signals in the second part.
