The tracking station automatically generates security configuration data for the mobile DPS, based on multiple factors pertaining to the mobile DPS, such as identity of the mobile DPS, a location of the mobile DPS, capabilities of the mobile DPS, etc. The tracking station uses the credentials to write the security configuration data to the secure storage of the mobile DPS. The security configuration data calls for the mobile DPS to automatically disable or enable at least one component. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 12-31-2015 |
20160085995 | TECHNOLOGIES FOR VERIFYING COMPONENTS - Technologies for verifying hardware components of a computing device include retrieving platform identification data of the computing device, wherein the platform identification data is indicative of one or more reference hardware components of the computing device, accessing hardware component identification data from one or more dual-headed identification devices of the computing device, and comparing the platform identification data to the hardware component identification data to determine whether a hardware component of the computing device has been modified. Each of the one or more dual-headed identification devices is secured to a corresponding hardware component of the computing device, includes identification data indicative of an identity of the corresponding hardware component of the computing device, and is capable of wired and wireless communication. | 03-24-2016 |

20120149415 | SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR ANONYMOUS LOCALIZATION - The present invention provides a system, method and computer program for anonymous localization. The location of a mobile device can be determined based on received signal strength (RSS) from one or more access points (APs) and a radio map. A radio map can be generated by measuring RSS at a set of fingerprints, which are a finite set of reference points within the area to be mapped. | 06-14-2012 |
20130198590 | METHOD OF REDUCING PEAK-TO-AVERAGE POWER RATIO, CUBIC METRIC AND BLOCK ERROR RATE IN OFDM SYSTEMS USING NETWORK CODING - Disclosed in a novel scheme to jointly reduce and trade-off Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) and a Block Error Rate (BLER) using random network coding. To do this, the different representations of the input information block are generated using a special form of network coding matrices. Further, the encoded block puncturing is utilized to improve in the PAPR against a degradation in the BLER. | 08-01-2013 |
