  • Publication number: 20250247221
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a lightweight authentication service, system and method that securely authenticates the identity of a secure user equipment (UE) or a device in a communication network system. The service and associated methods work by creating two partial secrets namely a first partial secret and a second partial secret. The first partial secret is generated by the manufacturer or the owner of the UE, which is stored on a secure location on the UE and the second partial secret is stored in a database storage system on a server in a cloud running an authentication service. The encryption of information elements is done by multiplying the information elements with the square of random numbers, the encrypted secrets are randomized and before transmission on the channel. The disclosure also describes a receiver UE that could either request an authentication service, running in a cloud, to authenticate a sender UE.

  • Publication number: 20250233723
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a resonator structure comprising a first transmission line and first two symmetric ring-shaped stubs with substantially equal width and length, placed substantially in a middle of the first transmission line. The apparatus further comprises a cross-coupling line structure for induction of crosstalk, the cross-coupling line structure comprising a second transmission line and second two symmetric ring-shaped stubs, wherein the second transmission line is coupled to a DC or pulsed voltage source.

  • Publication number: 20160308402
    Abstract: The current invention provides Ground-backed Complementary Split Ring Resonators (G-CSRR) as a new class of energy collectors and transmitters for electromagnetic energy harvesting in general and wireless power transfer applications in particular. The G-CSRR structure has low profile, low fabrication cost, efficient for wide range of illumination angles and can be placed on metallic surfaces.

  • Publication number: 20140266967
    Abstract: Antennas developed for electromagnetic field energy harvesting, typically referred to as rectennas, provide an alternative electromagnetic field energy harvesting means to photovoltaic cells if designed for operation in the visible frequency spectrum. Rectennas also provide energy harvesting ability or power transfer mechanism at microwave, millimeter and terahertz frequencies. However, the power harvesting efficiency of available rectennas is low because rectennas employ traditional antennas whose dimensions is typically proportional or close to the wavelength of operation. This invention provides a device for electromagnetic field energy harvesting that employs a plurality of electrically-small resonators such as split-ring resonators that provide significantly enhanced energy harvesting or energy collection efficiency while occupying smaller footprint. The invention is applicable to electromagnetic energy harvesting and to wireless power transfer.
