System and method for securely communicating across multiple networks using a single radio

摘要

A communications module for facilitating secure communications on a first network and a second network includes: a single transceiver for receiving and transmitting first network messages from and to the first network and at least transmitting second network messages to the second network; at least a first processor connected to the single transceiver for processing one or more first network messages and second network messages; the at least a first processor including first network logic for processing first network messages and second network logic for processing second network messages; and the second network logic including instructions for securing second network messages such that decryption of the second network messages is limited to a particular receiving device on the second network. The second network messages may include commodity pricing and use information.

1. A communications module for facilitating secure communications on a first network and a second network comprising:
a single transceiver having a two-way communication channel to the first network for receiving and transmitting first network messages from and to the first network and only a one-way communication channel to the second network for only transmitting second network messages to the second network; at least a first processor connected to the single transceiver for processing one or more first network messages and second network messages; the at least a first processor including first network logic for processing first network messages and second network logic for processing second network messages; and the second network logic including instructions for securing second network messages such that decryption of the second network messages is limited to a particular receiving device on the second network, wherein the second network logic also includes instructions received by the single transceiver from one or more first network messages that indicate a set of one-way communication channels on which the single transceiver is to transmit the second network messages and which include information that is unique to the particular receiving device, and wherein the second network messages include two types of messages, registration messages and application messages.
