System and method for secure wireless communication
First Claim
1. A method for secure wireless communication, comprising:
- establishing connection of a source wireless network device to a wireless network through a framework and establishing connection of at least one target wireless network device to the wireless network through the framework;
broadcasting a universally unique identifier (UUID) of the source wireless network device and UUID(s) of the target wireless network device(s) on the wireless network through the framework;
searching for UUIDs of a plurality of wireless network devices including the UUID(s) of the target wireless network device(s) on the wireless network in the vicinity of the source wireless network device through the framework;
displaying the UUIDs of the plurality of wireless network devices on the wireless network in the vicinity of the source wireless network device on a display unit of the source wireless network device;
establishing connection between the source wireless network device and the target wireless network device(s) on the wireless network through the framework;
loading a plurality of pictures from an external memory into a memory of the source wireless network device;
representing a file name of each picture as an identification of each picture;
displaying the plurality of pictures on the display unit of the source wireless network device;
selecting at least one picture from the displayed pictures at the source wireless network device;
transmitting a handshaking packet comprising the plurality of pictures, the identification of each picture, and the UUID of the source wireless network device, from the source wireless network device to the target wireless network device(s) over the wireless work through the framework;
receiving the handshaking packet at the target wireless network device(s);
extracting the plurality of pictures from the handshaking packet and displaying the pictures on a display unit of target wireless network device(s);
selecting at least one picture from the displayed pictures at each of the target wireless network device(s); and
transmitting a handshaking packet comprising at least an identification of the picture selected at each of the target wireless network device(s) from each of the target wireless network device(s) to the source wireless network device over the wireless network through the framework.

Abstract
A system and method for secure wireless communication for transferring or sharing data between at least two devices over a wireless network. A set of pictures are displayed on a source device from which a picture is selected either manually by a user or automatically by the system. Information related to the selected picture is transmitted to a target device. A set of pictures are displayed on the target device. On the target device, a particular picture is selected either manually by a user of the target device or automatically by the system, and further transmitted back to the source device. At the source device, the picture received from the target device is matched with the selected picture previously transmitted by the source device. Upon a successful match, the source device transmits an authentication confirmation for pairing the source device and the target device and enables data transfer.

- 14. The method as claimed in 10, wherein the step of rejecting the target wireless network device(s) in the event that the identification of the picture selected at the source wireless network device does not match with the identification of the picture selected at the target wireless network device(s), includes the step of transmitting a message from the source wireless network device informing the target wireless network device(s) of failed authentication.
