Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 7:
8. A system, comprising:
a first device;
a second device; and
a third device that is paired for communication with the first device, wherein:, the first device is configured to:
detect that the second device is in a communicable range of the first device, and that the first device has not been paired with the second device for wireless communication;
determine, by communicating with the third device, that the second device is paired with the third device;
establish a new communication session with the third device that causes the third device to generate key material for pairing the first device and the second device together and transmit the key material to the second device, wherein the key material is generated using a key derivation function and the key material comprises a non-overlapping binary string;
confirm with the second device that the key material at the first device matches key material at the second device; and
establish a communication link with the second device for wireless communication in response to the key material being a match.
