According to some embodiments, a method performed by a network management system for managing one or more radio access networks (RANs) comprises receiving an indication from a RAN that a RAN identifier has been assigned for a wireless device, associating a management system identifier for the wireless device with the RAN identifier for the wireless device; and storing the association in a wireless device registry.

Individual user equipment management in RAN

Methods are provided for automatic pairing of a first electronic device and a second electronic device in a radio communications system. Such methods can include bringing the first and second electronic devices in proximity to each other and transmitting an inquiry signal from the second electronic device. Such methods can also include transmitting an inquiry response signal from the first electronic device to the second electronic device, upon detecting the inquiry signal and establishing, in the second electronic device, a High Level Authentication connection with the first electronic device, based on the first electronic device being the first device to respond to the inquiry signal. Such methods can further include transmitting a private key from the second electronic device to the first electronic device, creating a common unique passkey, and initiating a pairing, by the first electronic device, using the unique passkey.

Method and device for bluetooth pairing

The present invention comprises an apparatus and method for generating and storing an electronic portrait of a buyer within a personal device such as a mobile telephone. An electronic portrait enables the generation of a physical identifier for comparison to the buyer by a seller during a transaction. Using the physical identifier transmitted to the seller via a wireless communications link, the seller can establish whether or not the buyer is authorized to make the transaction.

Method and apparatus for buyer identification

A method and apparatus for providing payment information stored upon an electronic personal device during a transaction is disclosed. A plurality of brand identifiers having payment information associated therewith are stored within a memory of the electronic personal device. A user interface enables a user to provide input to control logic which is responsive to the user inputs for defining a priority order for displaying the brand identifiers. A display enables the brand identifiers to be displayed according to the established priority order.
