CPC Class H04W

A variety of mechanisms to perform End-to-End authentication between entities having diverse capabilities (E.g. processing, memory, etc.) and with no prior security associations are used. Security provisioning and configuration process is done such that appropriate security credentials, functions, scope and parameters may be provisioned to an Entity. Mechanisms to distribute the security credentials to other entities which could then use the credentials to perform an End-to-End authentication at the Service Layer or the Session Layer and using Direct or Delegated modes are developed.

[Object] To provide an information processing method, a control device, a recording device, an information processing system and a program which enable automatic control of a response sound of a recording device, with respect to an operation ordered by the control device.[Solution] Provided is an information processing method and an information processing system including establishing a connection, by a recording device, to a control device via communication, and determining a control mode of a response sound in the recording device with respect to an operation ordered by the control device depending on whether a plurality of recording devices are connected to the control device.

An antenna system for a large appliance is disclosed herein. The antenna system comprises a large appliance having a front surface and a rear surface, a first antenna mounted on the rear surface, a second antenna mounted on the rear surface, a combiner in communication with the first antenna and the second antenna, a radio, a processor, and a wireless access point. The combiner selects the strongest signal of the first antenna and the second antenna to receive a wireless signal from the wireless access point.

Subscriptions to a network may be limited to certain geographic areas by defining a geographic area for the subscriber, identifying all of the network access points with the geographic area, and enabling the subscriber to access the network through those network access points. The network access points may be outfitted with Global Positioning System receivers or other geophysical location determination mechanisms such that the actual location of the network access point is used in determining a subscriber's permitted access.
