A method, devices, and a system is proposed for configuring a security control system of a secure control area, the method comprising exchanging UWB transmission(s) between a mobile communication device and one or more access control devices of the security control system, determining location information of the mobile communication device within the secure control area, receiving, by the mobile communication device, one or more user inputs comprising one or more relationship indication(s) of one or more relationship(s) between the respective location(s) of the mobile communication device and one or more security perimeters of the secure control area; and generating layout information relating to a physical layout of the one or more security perimeters within the secure control area using the location information and the one or more relationship indications.

Access control configuring method and device

An access control terminal (), comprising an electronic circuit () and an ultra-wide-band transceiver () connected to the electronic circuit () wherein the electronic circuit () exchanges messages with a mobile device () to determine a distance (d) of the mobile device () from the access control terminal (), and to transmit to the mobile device () one or more update messages configured to update access rights data in the mobile device (), if the mobile device () is within the pre-determined proximity range (P).

UWB access rights update

A method for controlling access within a secure control area using an access control device communicatively connected to one or more barrier(s) arranged within the secure control area, the method comprising: executing ultra-wideband transmissions with authentication device(s) using one or more ultra-wideband transceiver(s) of the access control device; detecting, by a processing unit of the access control device, entry and/or exit of the authentication device(s) () through the barrier(s) by processing signal properties of the one or more ultra-wideband transmissions and operating the barrier(s)—by the access control device—in a first mode of operation; switching operation of the barrier(s) by the access control device—from the first mode of operation into a second mode of operation upon determining a last exit of any authentication device from the secure control area.

Access control method, device and system

For managing application data of different contactless card applications for a plurality of mobile communication devices (), a card emulation module and application data for contactless card applications are transferred (S, S) by a computer system () to one of the mobile communication devices (). The card emulation module is configured to control the mobile communication device () to emulate a contactless card module and to execute data transactions (S, S) via a close range wireless communication interface of the mobile communication device () using the application data. The computer system () maintains (S, S, S, S, S) for the mobile communication devices () a card database with representations of the card emulation modules and their application data. The computer system () makes it possible to manage centrally and flexibly the application data of different contactless card applications and different application providers for a plurality of mobile communication devices ().
