ULTRA-WIDEBAND SESSION KEY SHARING SCHEME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17878483 titled 'ULTRA-WIDEBAND SESSION KEY SHARING SCHEME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a shared session key generation scheme for establishing a secure session between two devices. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The first device retrieves the public key of the second device.
  • Using the public key of the second device and its own private key, the first device generates a session key.
  • The first device establishes a secure session with the second device using the generated session key.
  • The second device encrypts a message using a session key it has generated.
  • The first device decrypts the message using the session key it generated.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Secure communication between devices: This scheme can be used to establish secure communication channels between devices, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the exchanged messages.
  • Secure data transfer: The shared session key generation scheme can be applied in scenarios where sensitive data needs to be securely transferred between devices, such as in financial transactions or confidential document sharing.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Key exchange: The scheme provides a method for securely exchanging session keys between devices, eliminating the need for a separate key exchange protocol.
  • Secure communication: By generating session keys based on public and private keys, the scheme ensures that the communication between devices is secure and protected against unauthorized access.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Simplified key generation: The scheme simplifies the process of generating session keys by utilizing public and private keys, making it easier for devices to establish secure sessions.
  • Efficient and secure communication: The shared session key generation scheme enables efficient and secure communication between devices, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the exchanged data.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects of the disclosure include a shared session key generation scheme. A method for a shared session key generation scheme includes retrieving, by a first device, a public key of a second device. The first device can generate a first session key, based at least in part on the public key of the second device and a private key of the first device. The first device can establish a secure session with the second device based at least in part on generating the first session key. The first device can receive a message from the second device via the secure session, the message being encrypted by a second session key generated by the second computing device, the first session key being a duplicate of the second session key. The first device can decrypt the message using the first session key
