Wireless communication authentication process and system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for an authentication to begin a wireless communication between a host device and a client device, the method comprising the steps of:
- sharing at least one of a host public key and a client public key with the host device and the client device, the host public key being unique to the host device and the client public key being unique to the client device,calculating a host connection key which is attributed to at least one of the host public key and the client public key,calculating a client connection key which is attributed to at least one of the host public key and the client public key,producing and outputting a first tone based on the host connection key,producing and outputting a second tone based on the client connection key,wherein if the authorization of the wireless communication between the host device and the client device are performed appropriately, the first tone is same as the second tone, andwherein after the authorization of the wireless communication between the host device and the client device are performed appropriately, the host device and the client device are ready to transmit data with each other.

6. A host device for communicating with a client device via wireless communication comprising:
-
a storing unit which stores a host public key and a private key, a processing unit which calculates an encoded key based on the host public key and a client public key transmitted from the host device via the wireless communication, and calculates a host connection key based on the encoded key and the private key for an authentication of the wireless communication, a transmitting unit which transmits the encoded key to the client device, and a sound outputting unit which outputs a first tone corresponding to the host connection key, wherein if the authorization of the wireless communication between the host device and the client device are performed appropriately, the first tone is same as a second tone outputted from the client device, the second tone corresponding to a client connection key calculated by the client device and wherein after the authorization of the wireless communication between the host device and the client device are performed appropriately, the host device are ready to exchange data with the client device.

7. A client device for communicating with a host device via wireless communication comprising
a storing unit which stores a client public key and a private key, a transmit unit which transmits the client public key to the host device, a processing unit which calculates a client connection key based on the private key and an encoded key which is calculated by the host device based on the client public key and transmitted from the host device for an authentication of the wireless communication, a sound outputting unit which outputs a second tone corresponding to the client connection key, wherein if the authorization of the wireless communication between the host device and the client device are performed appropriately, the second tone is same as a first tone outputted from the host device, the first tone corresponding to a host connection key calculated by the host device and wherein after the authorization of the wireless communication between the host device and the client device are performed appropriately, the client device are ready to exchange data with the host device.
