Network Controller Token Position Access Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wireless communication networks face challenges in efficiently determining access rights to communication services, particularly in integrating position-based access control with token validation for terminal devices within wireless local area networks.
Innovation Solution
A method and system where a network controller generates and transmits tokens to terminal devices, receives data from sensor devices containing position information, and determines access rights by validating the token and comparing the device's position with a reference value, using this information to grant or deny access to communication services.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If token validation and position-based access control are implemented, then security of access rights determination is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The access control system is segmented into distinct functional modules: token generation module, position determination module, and access rights determination module. Each module performs a specific function, making the overall complex system manageable and maintainable while ensuring comprehensive security validation
Solution Approach 2:
A token is introduced as an intermediary element between the terminal device and the access control system. The token carries position information and serves as a validated credential, simplifying the access control process by pre-packaging authentication data that can be quickly verified without requiring complex real-time analysis
2Measurement precision
If multiple validation criteria are used for access control, then access control accuracy is improved, but processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
Position information is determined and embedded in the token before the access control decision is made. This preliminary action allows the access control system to simply validate the pre-computed position data in the token rather than performing complex position calculations in real-time, thus maintaining high accuracy while reducing processing time

AI summary
The present invention relates to a method for determining an access right to a communication service, the method comprises: generating (210) at least one token for at least one terminal device (110); receiving (220) data from at least one sensor device (130A, 130B, 130C), the data comprising at least information from which a position of the terminal device (110) is derivable; determining (230), by the network controller (120), an access right to the communication service by: determining the position of the terminal device (110) from the data from which a position of the terminal device (110) is derivable, comparing the position of the terminal device (110) with a reference value, and generating, in accordance with a result of the comparison, an indication representing a right to access to the communication service. The invention also relates to a network controller, a communication system and a computer program product.
