Communication Method and Communication Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18400283 titled 'Communication Method and Communication Apparatus

Simplified Explanation

The patent application abstract describes a communication method where conflicting MAC addresses in VSI messages trigger the sending of action response messages carrying the conflicting MAC address. This allows for decryption of ciphertext information in received action-request messages using the device's key.

  • Explanation of the patent/innovation:
 * Conflict resolution in VSI messages with conflicting MAC addresses
 * Sending action response messages with conflicting MAC addresses
 * Decryption of ciphertext information in action-request messages using device key

Potential Applications

The technology could be applied in network communication systems, IoT devices, and security protocols.

Problems Solved

1. Resolving conflicts in MAC addresses in VSI messages 2. Ensuring secure communication by decrypting ciphertext information

Benefits

1. Improved communication reliability 2. Enhanced security measures 3. Efficient conflict resolution in network systems

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing network communication systems for improved efficiency and security.

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to conflict resolution in network communication systems or security protocols, but further research is needed to identify specific examples.

Original Abstract Submitted

In a communication method, when MAC addresses in a plurality of VSI messages conflict, in response to only some of the VSI messages, a VSI message receiving end sends an action response message carrying a conflicting MAC address. In this way, a device that can correctly decrypt the action response message can decrypt, for a few times, ciphertext information in received action-request messages using a key of the device.
