Method and apparatus for supporting self-destruction function in baseband modem

摘要

A method and an apparatus for supporting a self-destruction function in a baseband modem are provided. Aspects of the present disclosure are to address at least the above-mentioned problems and/or disadvantages and to provide at least the advantages described below. Accordingly, an aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a self-destruction method and apparatus in which a self-impossible state is autonomously entered if the baseband modem of a receiving terminal which supports mobile communication is necessary. Another aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a method and apparatus for deleting information stored in memory when a command is received over a mobile communication network in which a baseband modem has been constructed and then entering a self-impossible state so that the terminal is not recovered although it is booted up again.

主权项

1. A self-destruction method of a baseband modem, the method comprising:
sending a request for supplying power to a self-destruction unit to a power management unit when a command for performing self-destruction is received from a base station; and controlling the self-destruction unit to output a signal corresponding to a specific bit value, wherein the signal output by the self-destruction unit is used to block a clock, supplied from a Temperature-Compensated crystal Oscillator (TCXO) to the baseband modem, through a logical operation with a signal output by the TCXO.
