  • Patent number: 7835992
    Abstract: A method for transferring encrypted useful data objects (NDO) to a first telecommunication terminal (TG1), wherein at least one encrypted useful data object is initially transferred from a switching component to the first telecommunication terminal. Time information (SABS) is transferred from the switching component to the first telecommunication terminal indicating up to which moment in time a rights object (RO) associated with the at least one encrypted useful data object will arrive. Once, the rights object received by the first telecommunication terminal, the telecommunication terminal checks if the moment in time indicated in the time information has elapsed. If the moment has not elapsed, the first telecommunication terminal issues a signal relating to the receipt of a useful data object via a user interface.

  • Patent number: 7805522
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for transmitting user data objects from a data-supplying component or a data server to a telecommunication device of a user via a connection component. The data-supplying component is informed via profile information in a profile object what types of user data objects the connection component or the telecommunication unit is able to process on its own such that the data supplying component can specifically transmit user data objects to the telecommunication device, which belong to the type that the telecommunication device can process. Hence, the data-supplying component is prevented from sending user data objects of a type that has to be converted by the connection component on the transmission path in order to be able to processed by the telecommunication device.

  • Patent number: 7711959
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for handling or transmitting encrypted user data objects. According to such method, a data preparation component (D) of a data preparation system provides user data objects. The data preparation component first encrypts a user data object that has been prepared. It then determines a checksum of the encrypted user data object and creates a container data object (DCF), in which the encrypted user data object and the determined checksum are provided. The container data object is subsequently transmitted to a first telecommunications device (A). Preferably, in order to use the encrypted user data object, the data preparation component (D) transmits descriptive information (BI1) containing a description of the possible usage rights for the encrypted user data object to the telecommunications device (A).

  • Patent number: 7567654
    Abstract: A communication link from a first telecommunication device to a second telecommunication device is established via a telecommunication network. Initially, a plurality of multi-media objects, which are associated with a first telecommunication subscriber, are stored together with a respective reference number in the telecommunication network. An allocation representation of at least one data set is also determined, the representation indicating a specific call receiver with reference to a specific reference number of a multi-media object. Subsequently, a link set up request is sent from the first telecommunication device associated with the first telecommunication subscriber to the telecommunication network, the link set up request indicating that a communication link should be set up between the first telecommunication device and the second telecommunication device associated with a selected call receiver.
