An exemplary mobile computing device includes an interface configured to wirelessly receive a control policy from an antenna; a processor configured to enforce the received control policy; and memory configured to store the received control policy and retain a last-received control policy for enforcement by the processor when the interface is outside an antenna range to wirelessly receive any control policy.

System and method for control policy retention

An exemplary mobile computing device, including a memory device for storing a control policy defining a functional configuration of the mobile computing device; and a processor configured to place the mobile computing device in one of one of plural states based on a validation result of the control policy.

System and method for controlling the power states of a mobile computing device

A mobile computing device, including: a first memory device having first computer-readable instructions tangibly recorded thereon; a first hardware processor configured to execute the first computer-readable instructions recorded on the first memory device; and an RFID component that includes a transceiver configured to receive a proximity signal from at least one RFID reader when the RFID component is within a predetermined range of the at least one RFID reader, and a second memory device configured to store the proximity signal, wherein the first hardware processor is configured to, upon executing the instructions recorded on the first memory device, control at least one operation of the mobile computing device in accordance with the proximity signal received by the transceiver of the RFID component from the at least one RFID reader.

System and method for location-based security

A system and method detect direction of movement. The system includes at least two radio frequency identification (RFID) readers arranged in different locations. The RFID readers transmit respective location signals from their locations and receive corresponding response signals from a portable electronic device (PED) when the PED is within range to receive the corresponding location signals, respectively. The system includes a controller configured to determine whether the individual response signals received by the RFID readers respectively satisfy a predetermined condition at a first time and a second time after the first time. The controller is configured to determine a direction of movement of the PED relative to the locations of the RFID readers during the first and second times based on whether the response signals respectively satisfy the predetermined condition at the first and second times, and control operations of the PED based on the determined movement of the PED.

System and method for detecting movement of a mobile asset and controlling operations of the asset based on its movement

A system and method are provided for detecting direction of movement. The system includes at least two radio frequency identification (RFID) readers arranged in different locations. The RFID readers transmit respective location signals from their locations and receive corresponding response signals from a portable electronic device (PED) when the PED is within range to receive the corresponding location signals, respectively. The system includes a controller configured to determine whether the individual response signals received by the RFID readers respectively satisfy a predetermined condition at a first time and a second time subsequent to the first time. The controller is also configured to determine a direction of movement of the portable electronic device relative to the locations of the RFID readers during the first and second times based on whether the response signals respectively satisfy the predetermined condition at the first and second times.
