  • Patent number: 8086177
    Abstract: A communications system for land vehicles usable in the field of radio communications with any electronic data processing equipment connected to a mobile telecommunications network. The communications system enables the connection of a communication terminal (TP_i) to a mobile communications network (2) from a vehicle (1) of the kind including a local network (PAN) linked to the vehicle, and a server for connecting said local network to the communications network (GPRS, UMTS). The local network (3) provides a resource (Cext) for connecting a requesting communications terminal (TP_k) and the mobile communications network (2), and resources (Cint) for setting up a connection between two mobile terminals (TP_i, TP_j) connected to the local network (PAN) linked to the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20050188219
    Abstract: A method of communicating data securely between a terminal and at least one communicating equipment. The communicating equipment in communication with the terminal is identified by at least one first security device installed in the terminal to recognize the nature of the communicating equipment. The communicating equipment is authenticated by acquiring data processed by at least one security server so that it is executable only by the communications equipment. The integrity of the communicating equipment is checked by at least one approval device of the security server using the data transmitted at the time of the authentication, and, in the event of correct identification, authentication and integrity checking at least one management device installed in the terminal is commanded to set up secure data communication with the communicating equipment.
