  • Patent number: 8965281
    Abstract: A mobile device provided with a secure chip and a short-range wireless RF communication module, which can be used for contactless transactions with external short-range wireless RF communication devices, for example at a point of sales. The mobile device is provided with user selectable activity levels of the secure chip to reduce security risks/concerns associated with such a terminal. The user selectable activity levels may include levels in which the secure chip is deactivated by default, and only temporarily activated upon user confirmation or the entry of a password or PIN.

  • Patent number: 7694331
    Abstract: A wireless communication device is implemented with a smart card module to secure the transmission of sensitive or confidential information. The user of the device must request permission to activate an application on the smart card module from a remote source. After this first level of security is satisfied, the application on the smart card module enables the user to scan data via a machine-readable medium in order to make a data request to the remote source. If a second level authorization is met in regard to the data request, the remote source will transmit the requested sensitive or confidential information to the user to view and/or update.

  • Publication number: 20070263560
    Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for creating and managing group services in a cellular network for easy, fast and reliable connection of a subscriber(s) to one or more group services. A first terminal device stores service descriptions records for a first group of services in a cellular network. The first terminal is equipped with a communication module including a first RFID/NFC interface. A tangible object, typically a passive or semi-active tag with a RFID/NFC tag/transponder stores service description records for a first group of services. The first terminal is capable of initiating a new group of services group in the cellular network by way of communicating with the tangible object by touching the first RFID/NFC interface. A second communication module is capable of joining to the group of services group by way of reading the information from the tangible object over the second RFID/NFC interface upon touching the tangible object.

  • Patent number: 6987779
    Abstract: A method and an arrangement are provided for indicating the specific use of a packet-switched communication connection between a mobile station and a fixed packet-switched data transmission network. The activation of a new packet-switched communication connection involves the step of transmitting an activation request message with a service type indicator field for which a set of service type indicator values have been defined. An additional step is performed for transmitting within the activation request message an indicator value indicating the specific use, in more detail than the service type indicator values, of the packet-switched communication connection the activation of which is requested with the activation request message.
