发明名称 Proximity based digital rights management
摘要 A method, system, and medium are provided for sharing content among network devices. The system includes at least one base station and network devices that are part of a wireless network. The base station is configured to receive a request for content from a network device. The content may be available on a second network device proximate to the first network device. The base station may generate temporary and permanent keys that allow network devices to access content available on other network devices. The base station, among other functions, may transmit keys, determine proximity settings and facilitate content transfers.

主权项 1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method of sharing access between network devices, the method comprising: determining, by a base station, a proximity based on statistics, wherein the statistics correspond to at least one or more network devices and network metrics; identifying, by the base station, a location of a first network device of the at least one or more network devices and a location of a second network device of the at least one or more network devices; receiving, by the base station, a request for access to the second network device from the first network device; determining, by the base station, whether the location of the first network device and the location of the second network device are within the proximity determined by the base station; generating, by the base station, an access key when the first network device and the second network device are within the proximity determined by the base station; and communicating, via the base station, the access key to the first network device, wherein the access key enables the first network device to access the second network device, and wherein the access key expires when the first network device and the second network device are not within the proximity determined by the base station.
