Abstract: A method sets up a local control channel between a control unit for controlling a building-internal electrical component, connected to a building-internal access portal, and the access portal, by authenticating the control unit against a building-external authentication server via a building-external communication network; transmitting a network address of the building-internal access portal using the building-external authentication server to the control unit upon successful authentication of the control unit against the building-external authentication server via the building-external communication network; transmitting an access authorization for the building-internal access portal to the control unit using the building-external authentication server via the building-external communication network upon successful authentication of the control unit against the building-external authentication server via the building-external communication network; and setting up the local control channel between the control

Abstract: An access portal for controlling communication between a building-external communication server of a building-external communication network and a building-internal communication entity of a building-internal communication network includes: a memory for storing authentication data for initiating a communication connection to the communication server; a first communication interface for establishing communication with the building-external communication server using the stored authentication data, wherein the first communication interface is configured to monitor the communication connection to the building-external communication server and, in the event of a fault in the communication connection, to generate a fault message; and a second communication interface for communicating with the communication entity, wherein the second communication interface is configured to send the stored authentication data to the building-internal communication entity in response to receiving the fault message in order to initia

Abstract: A method for provisioning an embedded universal integrated circuit entity within an electronic device includes: in a first step, the embedded universal integrated circuit entity is initialized after being activated by a microprocessor; in a second step, the embedded universal integrated circuit entity transmits a secret information to the microprocessor; in a third step, the secret information is stored in a memory area; and in a fourth step, an initial communication contact, using radio link capabilities provided by a radio module, is established between, on the one hand, the electronic device and the embedded universal integrated circuit entity, and, on the other hand, the mobile communication network or a server device.

Abstract: A method for transferring a transfer credit amount from a first credit memory assigned to a first telecommunications terminal to a second credit memory assigned to a second telecommunications terminal, the first telecommunications terminal having at least one first sensor, and the second telecommunications terminal having at least one second sensor, includes adding a credit amount to the first credit inventory. Events are generated based on sensor signals of the sensors.

Abstract: A method for controlling at least one device in at least one building includes: selectively transferring, by a control system comprising a server and a number of gateways, at least one application from the server to a particular gateway or from a particular gateway to the server based on at least one transfer rule; and controlling, by the control system, the at least one device via the at least one application.

Abstract: A method for transferring an assignment regarding an embedded universal integrated circuit entity within an electronic device from a first mobile network operator to a second mobile network operator includes: in a first step, the embedded universal integrated circuit entity is initialized, together with the electronic device, to be used with the first mobile network operator and a corresponding mobile communication network; and in a second step, subsequent to the first step, the assignment regarding the embedded universal integrated circuit entity is transferred from the first mobile network operator to the second mobile network operator.

Abstract: A method for detecting the direction of travel of and for determining travel in the wrong direction by a vehicle which is moving on a lane in a section of road. Identifiers are respectively emitted by an arrangement of radio beacons which are arranged along the lane. When the vehicle travels through the section of road, a radio receiver, in particular a cell phone device, which is arranged in the vehicle, successively receives the emitted identifiers of the radio beacons. The actual direction of travel of the vehicle is determined on the basis of the sequence of the successively received identifiers.
