Patent number: 11251889Abstract: Wireless signal classifiers and systems that incorporate the same may include an energy-based detector configured to analyze an entire set of measurements and generate a first signal classification result, a cyclostationary-based detector configured to analyze less than the entire set of measurements and generate a second signal classification result; and a classification merger configured to merge the first signal classification result and the second signal classification result. Ensemble wireless signal classification and systems and devices the incorporate the same are disclosed. Some ensemble wireless signal classification may include energy-based classification processes and machine learning-based classification processes. In some embodiments, incremental machine learning techniques may be incorporated to add new machine learning-based classifiers to a system or update existing machine learning-based classifiers.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2019Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignees: Battelle Energy Alliance, LLC, University of Utah Research FoundationInventors: Kurt W.

Patent number: 10164958Abstract: Authentication of devices to receive services provided by service providers over communications networks such as open access networks, wherein the provider of the network need not have access to secret information shared between the devices and the service providers. A request is received from a device to receive services from a service provider and is forwarded to the service provider. A challenge and an expected response is received from the service provider and the challenge is forwarded to the device. A response to the challenge is received from the device the device is authenticated to receive services from the service provider if the response received from the device matches the expected response provided by the service provider.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2016Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: Entry Point, LLCInventors: Christopher D. Becker, Sneha Kumar Kasera, Jacobus E Van der Merwe
