Abstract
A method for licensing a sensor at a central body, a method for licensing a receiver at a central body, a method for providing a list of sensor keys by using a central body, a method for registering a licensed sensor on a licensed receiver and a system for transmitting data from a licensed sensor to a licensed receiver, allow sensors and receivers to be licensed while also simultaneously ensuring secure delivery of the transmission key for communication purposes or for data exchange between the sensors and the receivers. The transmission key can be transmitted in an encrypted matter and there is no need to transmit the transmission key in an unencrypted manner. It is also possible to establish a licensing model for sensors and receivers by virtue of the secure delivery of the transmission key.
