Abstract
A method performed by a processor of a first electronic device includes transmitting first authentication information through a Body Area Network (BAN) interface circuit that communicates with a second electronic device using electrical signals conducted through electrodes contacting a body of a user extending between the first and second electronic devices. Second authentication information is received through a radiofrequency transceiver circuit that communicates via an antenna through an air-interface with the second electronic device. A command to control an operation of the second electronic device is communicated responsive to determining that a combination of the first authentication information and the second authentication information satisfies an authentication rule.
