A method of operating a seamless physical access control system comprises transferring communication session information using an out-of-band (OOB) communication channel of a smart ultra-wide band (UWB) capable device; establishing a secure OOB communication channel between the smart UWB capable device and a reader device using the communication session information; determining that a UWB enabled application of the smart UWB capable device needs secure ranging; establishing a secure UWB communication channel between the smart UWB capable device and the reader device; and transferring ranging information from a secure component of the smart UWB capable device to the reader device via the secure UWB communication channel.

A vehicle system includes: an in-vehicle apparatus having a signal transmission unit that transmits different pulse pattern signals from multiple transmitting antennas; and a portable device having a receiving unit that receives the signals. The in-vehicle apparatus or the portable device includes a portable device position identification unit that identifies a position of the portable device according to the signals. The portable device includes a frequency-to-voltage conversion unit that outputs a voltage corresponding to a frequency of each signal. The portable device position identification unit includes: a first storage unit that preliminary stores voltage change patterns corresponding to the frequencies of the signals in relation to positions of the vehicle; and a first position estimation unit that compares the voltage change patterns of the frequency-to-voltage conversion unit with the voltage change patterns in the first storage unit, and estimates the position of the portable device.

Remote control for actuating an electric window shade or an electric window blind or an electric window covering, and method and system of using same. A base unit includes: a wireless receiver, to wirelessly receive from an electronic device an incoming wireless signal indicating a command to actuate an electric window covering; a wireless signal constructor, to dynamically construct an outgoing wireless signal which comprises a rolling code; and a wireless transmitter, to transmit the outgoing wireless signal to a wireless receiver of a motor unit that is operably associated with the electric window covering. A wireless signal constructor dynamically constructs the outgoing wireless signal without having access to a secret seed value that is accessible to the motor unit. A local storage unit stores a data-set of rolling codes that are associated with the motor unit; and the outgoing wireless signal is dynamically constructed based on a next-available rolling code obtained from the local storage unit of the base unit.

An identification adapter for an identification device has a reading unit and a control unit. The control unit is connected to the reading unit via a data communication connection. The identification adapter has a receiving unit for wirelessly receiving identification data (ID). Also, the identification adapter has a data transmission unit designed to transmit the received identification data (ID) to the control unit on the same data communication connection as the reading unit.

An access restriction system having a true random number generator (TRNG) to generate true random keys based on quantum-level physical properties and hub computer to provide those keys. An access-restricted component executes one or more tasks in response to receiving a verified task instruction. A component computer associated with the access-restricted component receives true random keys from the hub computer and stores the keys to a memory. A controller provides a task request to the component computer that includes a task instruction paired with a key. The component computer then verifies the task instruction by comparing and ensuring that the true random key stored to the memory matches the key received from the controller with the task request and then provides the verified task to the access-restricted component. The access-restricted component then carries out the verified task instruction.
