One or more portable VCUs are equipped with digital cameras and are located to capture video in a region of interest. Each VCU comprises a plurality of directional antennas, each of which provides antenna gain over a particular azimuthal angular range. Each VCU also comprises a controller which is configured to select a particular one of its antennas and a particular channel identifier (CID) signal and associated frequency hopping sequence which are used to implement frequency hopping spread spectrum wireless communication between the VCU and the CMS.

A spatial representation of the imaged object is restored by spatial convolution of the image using a Wiener restoration kernel.

Abstract: Small, optimized sequences of binary 5-tuples, representing filter rules, which achieve space efficient packet filtering. A post-match procedure table allows dynamic and extensible packet processing. Packet filtering is accomplished by processing filter rule statements and procedure statements, entered by a user in a rules file, to generate 5-tuple filtering rules and a procedure table, and loading the filtering rules and procedure table into the filter interpreter. A filter interpreter then applies the resolved filtering rules for each packet received at the network adapter. When a filtered packet matches a rule, a specified function is invoked.

Abstract: The invention provides for encrypting electronic information such as a document so that only users with permission may access the document in decrypted form. The process of encrypting the information includes selecting a set of policies as to who may access the information and under what conditions. A remote server stores a unique identifier for the information and associates an encryption/decryption key pair and access policies with the information. Software components residing on the author's computer retrieve the encryption key from the remote server, encrypt the information, and store the encrypted information at a location chosen by the author. A user wishing to access the information acquires the encrypted information electronically.

Abstract: An automatic control system for actuators and security devices in building automation. A wrist-held sensor and transmitter unit (11) transmits repeatedly, in the form of short telegrams, messages indicating the physiological condition of user to a receiver and control apparatus (12), which is placed in a monitored space either as a separate unit or a part of an appliance to be controlled. The receiver and control apparatus (12), or an information analyzer in data transfer communication therewith, uses the physiological condition of a user as a basis to conduct control selections and to control automatically the actuators and security devices in accordance with the physiological condition of a person who carries the transmitter unit (11). If necessary, the control selections can be influenced also by a piece of information indicating the location of a user. In addition to the automatic control of nearby equipment, the system is also applicable to monitoring the health of a user and to setting off alarms.

Abstract: An automatic control system for a security apparatus based on the presence of the user and having a portable transmitter for security based information, a receiver for that information and a control unit. The transmitter provides the receiver and control unit with information on the presence of a person. The receiver and control unit is provided with a detector which detects the opening of a door. A processor uses that presence information and the indication of a door being opened to compile information about whether the user is going out or coming in. The receiver and control unit automatically switches on a burglar monitor placed in a monitored space when the receiver and control unit determine that the user has left the monitored space.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for designing public key cryptosystems against fault-based attacks in which secret information stored in a tamperfree device is revealed during the encryption/decryption or signature generation processes due to fault-based attacks. A new fault-resistant system which enables any fault existing in modular multiplications and exponential computations to be detected with a very high probability based on a coding approach. This method can be used to implement all cryptosystems whose basic operations are modular multiplications for resisting both memory and computational fault-based attacks with a very low computational overhead.

Abstract: A system has a plurality of transceiver units, including a parent unit and one or more portable and wearable child units, for generating an alarm when a child transceiver unit is more than a predetermined distance away from a parent transceiver unit. The distance is determined by the difference in the phase of a reference signal from the time it is transmitted on an rf signal by a parent unit, received and retransmitted by a child unit, and then received again by the parent unit.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for document verification exploits a temporally variable physical process to generate a reproducible effect that cannot be copied. A document such as a credit card is provided with a spot or stripe that incorporates at least one, and preferably a large plurality of photorefractive crystals arrayed in a random manner. The document verifying apparatus includes a coherent light source such as a diode laser to illuminate the photorefractive crystals, and a photosensor to receive light scattered from the photorefractive crystals. The random distribution and orientation of photorefractive crystals comprises a unique characteristic for each card or document, and this characteristic is not based on any assigned number or code. The response of photorefractive crystals to the coherent illumination comprises a time-varying characteristic that is dependent upon the intensity and temporal nature of the illumination itself.
