  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18194626 Titled 'USER EQUIPMENT DEVICE INTEGRITY PROTECTION IN A DATA COMMUNICATION NETWORK'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a data communication network that includes a data communication node and an imaging device. The data communication node establishes a connection with a user equipment device and provides beamforming information for the connection. The imaging device captures images of the coverage area of the data communication node. The network then uses the image information to create a 3D map of the coverage area. It also authenticates the user equipment device and determines its location within the 3D map using the beamforming information and the image information. Finally, it verifies the identity of the user equipment device based on this location correlation.


Original Abstract Submitted

A data communication network includes a data communication node and an imaging device. The data communication node establishes a data connection with a user equipment device and provides beamforming information for the data connection. The imaging device provides image information for a coverage area of the data communication node. The network synthesizes a 3D map of the coverage area based upon the image information, authenticates the user equipment device, correlates a location of the user equipment device within the 3D map based upon the beamforming information for the data connection and upon the image information, and attests to an identity of the user equipment device based upon the correlation of the location.
