  • Key with interruptible antenna for data security
    Publication number: 20080001707
    Abstract: An authorization device includes a transponder and antenna. Transmission prompts are received by the antenna and sent to the transponder. The transponder will then emit an identification signal utilized to verify and provide access to a locking device. The antenna is selectively connected to the transponder to control receipt of the transmission prompt. The example authorization device controls receipt of transmission prompts by a transponder to prevent unauthorized and undesired receipt and thereby transmission of identification and other signals.
