Exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless power transfer and Near-Field Communication (NFC) operation. An electronic device includes an antenna configured to resonate at an NFC frequency and generate an induced current. The electronic device further including rectifier circuitry and NFC circuitry each concurrently coupled to the induced current. The rectifier circuitry configured to rectify the induced current into DC power for the electronic device and the NFC circuitry configured to demodulate any data on the induced current. A method for concurrent reception of wireless power and NFC includes receiving an induced current from an antenna, rectifying the induced current into DC power for use by an electronic device, and demodulating the induced current concurrent with rectifying to determine any data for the NFC.

Concurrent wireless power transmission and near-field communication

Techniques are disclosed to enable utilization of randomly-occurring features of a label (whether embedded or naturally inherent) to provide counterfeit-resistant and/or tamper-resistant labels. More specifically, labels including randomly-occurring features are scanned to determine the labels' features. The information from the scan is utilized to provide identifying indicia which uniquely identifies each label and may be later verified against the label features that are present to determine whether the label is genuine. In a described implementation, the identifying indicia may be cryptographically signed.

A system for the wireless transfer of power includes a first device connected to a power supply source and provided with a first resonant circuit at a first frequency, a second device comprising at least one battery, provided with a second resonant circuit at said first frequency, arranged at a distance smaller than the wavelength associated with said first frequency and not provided with wires for the electrical connection with said first device. The first device is adapted to transfer a first signal representing the power to be sent to the second device for charging said at least one battery and comprises means adapted to modulate the frequency of said first signal for transferring data from the first device to the second device simultaneously with the power transfer. The second device comprises means adapted to demodulate the received signal, corresponding to the first signal sent from the first device, to obtain the transmitted data.

A method includes forming a feature vector associated with an iris of an individual using a transform operation including converting an iris image into a log-polar image, scaling one or more samples in the log-polar image according to a Fourier-Mellin transform, and performing a Fourier transform on the scaled samples. The method involves forming an iris digest based on the feature vector, and creating a biometric identifier based on the iris digest. A system includes an iris scanner, an iris analyzer that forms an image of a human iris wherein the presence of eyelashes in the image is minimized, forms a feature vector associated with the iris image using a modified Fourier-Mellin transform, and compresses the feature vector into an iris digest.

A system for performing failure signature recognition training for at least one unit of equipment. The system includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured by computer code to receive sensor data relating to the unit of equipment and to receive failure information relating to equipment failures. The processor is further configured to analyze the sensor data in view of the failure information in order to develop at least one learning agent for performing failure signature recognition with respect to the at least one unit of equipment.

A processor comprises a first calculating unit, a second calculating unit and a control means for controlling the two calculating units, such that they selectively operate in a high security mode of operation processing complementary data or in a parallel mode of operation processing independent data, or in a security mode of operation processing the same data, or that they are in a power-saving mode of operation, wherein one of the calculating units is switched off.

Methods and systems for transferring information to a device include assigning a unique identifier to a device and generating a unique key for the device. The device is located at a first site, and the unique identifier is sent from the device to a second site. The unique key is obtained at the second site, and it is used for encrypting information at the second site. The encrypted information is sent from the second site to the device, where it can then be decrypted.

An apparatus for protecting an integrated circuit formed in a substrate and a method for protecting the integrated circuit against reverse engineering includes an active shield having a signal transmitter, a signal receiver, at least two conductor tracks running between the signal transmitter and the signal receiver, and a drive and evaluation device connected to the signal transmitter and to the signal receiver. The shield at least partially covers the integrated circuit. A covering composition applied on the substrate forms a mechanical protection of the integrated circuit. The shield has a switching apparatus. As a result, a capacitive measurement method can be carried out in a first switching state and damage to the shield can be detected in a second switching state.

Method for preventing counterfeiting of a valuable medium, e.g. banknote, pass, stock certificate or chip card, has the following steps: attachment of a security marking (2) with a random pattern, defined detection of individual parameters of the pattern, encoding of the parameter data and attachment of the resulting code on the support medium (1). The invention also relates to a corresponding valuable medium and method for checking the validity of the medium.

The invention relates to a processor comprising a first arithmetic-logic unit (2), a second arithmetic-logic unit (4) and a control device (6) for controlling both arithmetic-logic units (2, 4). The control device controls the arithmetic-logic units in such a manner that they operate, as desired, in a high-security operational mode, in which complementary data is processed, or in a parallel operational mode, in which independent data is processed, or in a security operational mode, in which the same the data is processed, or are located in a power saving mode, in which one of the arithmetic-logic units (2, 4) is switched off.
