  • Patent number: 8484466
    Abstract: A system and method for efficiently enabling local security connectivity between electronic devices over multiple bearers. Electronic devices are configured to advertise, over each bearer, their respective configuration parameters for each bearer. After a connection has been established between the electronic devices over a first bearer, the two electronic devices use the first bearer to establish connections over the other bearers using the configuration parameters contained in the advertisements and advertised over the first bearer. Shared keys are established for the other bearers either using keys derived from the first shared key or by using the first secure connection as an out-of-band channel. The present invention also provides for the creation of an ad hoc WLAN connection once a Bluetooth connection has been established.

  • Patent number: 8437757
    Abstract: Improved systems and methods for establishing peer-to-peer calls such as voice over IP calls and video over IP calls. In various embodiments of the invention, SMTP messages are exchanged between devices using a SMTP server, with the SMTP messages including IP address information. With this arrangement, the need for SIP service providers can be eliminated. In other embodiments of the present invention, SMS messages including IP address information are transmitted between devices during a GSM or other type of telephone call, enabling the call to “migrate” to a VoIP or video over IP call.

  • Publication number: 20070254588
    Abstract: An accessory device 300 includes a wireless communication interface 320 and an electrical interface 310. In order to hide a wireless communication protocol used for data received via the wireless communication interface 320 from a device 100 that is connected to the accessory device 300 via the electrical interface 310, a processing unit 330 is adapted to convert data received via the wireless communication interface and having a format required for a wireless communication service into a format required for a specific service other than a wireless communication service, and to provide the converted data for a transmission via the electrical interface 310. A further accessory device 1300 enables a flexible access to an included storage component 1340.
