Access Authorization Method And Apparatus For A Wireless Sensor Network
First Claim
1. An access authorization apparatus for wireless sensor network, comprising:
- at least a base station; and
a wireless sensor network formed by a plurality of sensor nodes;
wherein said at least a base station obtains an access authorization of a user, issues a request message to a target sensor node in said wireless sensor network, said target sensor node requests at least a controlling node in said wireless sensor network for sensing data sensed by said at least a controlling node, and refers to said sensing data returned by said at least a controlling node to check if said sensing data meets said access authorization of said user, and whether said target sensor node responses with multimedia matching said access authorization is based on the checking result.

Abstract
An access authorization method and apparatus for a wireless sensor network comprises at least a base station and a wireless sensor network formed by a plurality of sensor nodes. After having obtained an access authorization of a user, the at least a base station issues a request message to a target sensor node in the wireless sensor network. The target sensor node requests at least a controlling node in the wireless sensor network for sensing data sensed by the at least a controlling node, and checks if the sensing data meets the requirements of the access authorization of the user. Whether the target sensor node responds with the required multimedia or not is based on the checking result.

12. An access authorization method for wireless sensor network, said method comprising:
-
obtaining an access authorization of a user through at least a base station; selecting at least a controlling node from a plurality of sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network, and selecting at least an intermediate routing node from said at least a base station to a target sensor node; issuing a request message to said target sensor node through said at least a base station, said request at least having authentication information; based on said request, said target sensor node requesting said selected at least a controlling node for returning sensing data, and referring to said returned sensing data to determine whether meeting said access authorization of said user, and issuing a corresponding reply message; based on said authentication information, said at least an intermediate routing node checking said reply message to determine whether to discard or to transfer said reply message; and authenticating said transferred reply message through said at least a base station. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
