Systems and methods for blockchain wireless services in a controlled environment - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240223702 titled 'Systems and methods for blockchain wireless services in a controlled environment
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for providing blockchain wireless services in a controlled environment, such as a prison. It involves using a wireless communication device associated with an inmate to validate and enable voice or video calls from external devices through blockchain technology.
- The method involves a wireless communication device associated with an inmate in a controlled environment receiving a voice or video call from an external device.
- The device places the call on hold and sends a request for validation via blockchain, identifying the parties involved in the call.
- Upon validation, the device enables voice or video functionality for the parties and removes the call from hold.
- The device sends the validation request to a telecommunications server for real-time monitoring of the call.
- The device continuously records the call for security purposes.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in correctional facilities, secure government buildings, or any controlled environment where monitoring and validation of wireless communication are necessary.
Problems Solved: The method addresses the need for secure and controlled wireless communication in environments where traditional methods may be insufficient.
Benefits: - Enhanced security and monitoring of voice and video calls - Improved validation process through blockchain technology - Increased control over communication within controlled environments
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized by prison facilities, government agencies, and other secure facilities to ensure secure and monitored wireless communication.
Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include patents or research on blockchain-based communication systems in controlled environments.
Frequently Updated Research: Researchers may be exploring advancements in blockchain technology for enhancing security and validation processes in wireless communication within controlled environments.
Questions about Blockchain Wireless Services in Controlled Environments: 1. How does blockchain technology enhance the validation process of voice and video calls in controlled environments? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing blockchain wireless services in secure facilities?
Original Abstract Submitted
a method of providing blockchain wireless services in a controlled environment is provided. the method comprises a wireless communication device associated with an inmate of a controlled environment receiving one of a voice and video call from a device external to the controlled environment. the method further comprises the device placing the received call into a hold state and sending a request for validation of the call via a blockchain, the request identifying at least parties to the call. the method further comprises the device, upon receipt of validation, removing the call from the hold state; and enabling at least one of voice and video functionality for the parties. the method further comprises the wireless communication device sending the request for validation to a telecommunications server and the server conducting real time monitoring of the call. the method further comprises the device continuously recording the call.
