First Claim
Patent Images
1. In a wireless communication system, a method for preventing unauthorized access to the wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of:
- a) during initialization or re-initialization of the wireless communication system, enabling available identification codes as default enabled identification codes;
b) after initialization or re-initialization of the wireless communication system, activating at least one of the available identification codes corresponding to at least one particular communication unit to produce activated identification codes;
during operation of the wireless communication system;
c) receiving a system access request from a requesting communication unit, wherein the system access request includes an identification code of the requesting communication unit;
d) determining whether the identification code is one of the activated identification codes or one of the default enabled identification codes; and
e) when the identification code is one of the default enabled identification codes, generating a default enabled message.

Abstract
In a wireless communication system, unauthorized access may be prevented upon detecting the particular type of identification code. When the identification code is of a default enabled type, the central controller (101) transmits a default enabled message to the system manager (110). The system manager interprets this message and provides a response to the central controller (101). The response may indicate that this particular identification code should be activated or deactivated.

5. In a wireless communication system, a method for preventing unauthorized access to the wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of:
-
a) receiving a system access request from a requesting communication unit, wherein the system access request includes an identification code of the requesting communication unit; b) determining whether the identification code is in a set of activated identification codes or a set of default enabled identification codes; c) when the identification code is in the set of default enabled identification codes, determining whether the identification code is in a first set of identification codes; and d) when the identification code is in the first set of identification codes, disabling the identification code. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)
