Abstract:
Concepts and technologies disclosed herein are directed to secondary short-range wireless assist for wireless-based access control. According to one aspect, a method can include receiving, at an access control system, a first identifier via a near-field communications (“NFC”) reader associated with an entryway to an area. The NFC reader can receive the first identifier from an NFC component of a mobile device. The method can include receiving, at the access control system, a second identifier via a wireless transceiver associated with the area. The wireless transceiver associated with the area can receive the second identifier from a wireless communication component of the mobile device after the mobile device has entered the area through the entryway. The method can also include determining, by the access control system, that the first identifier and the second identifier constitute an authentication pair that identifies the mobile device as being authenticated to access the area.

Claim (Index 15):
A computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor of an access control system, cause the access control system to perform operations comprising:\n receiving, from a device associated with an entryway that provides access to an area, a first identifier received by the device from a first mobile device associated with a first user; determining, based on the first identifier, whether the first user is allowed to physically access the area; in response to determining that the first user is allowed to physically access the area, causing the entryway to be traversable by the first user to allow the first user and the first mobile device associated with the first user entry to the area through the entryway to physically access the area; and after the first user and the first mobile device have entered the area through the entryway,\n causing a wireless transceiver located within the area to send a wireless component activation signal, wherein the wireless component activation signal causes a wireless communication component of the first mobile device associated with the first user to activate so as to respond to any requests from the wireless transceiver and further causes a wireless communication component of a second mobile device associated with a second user to activate so as to respond to any requests from the wireless transceiver, \n receiving, from the wireless transceiver located within the area, a second identifier and a third identifier, wherein the second identifier is received by the wireless transceiver from the wireless communication component of the first mobile device associated with the first user in response to the wireless transceiver broadcasting a request for an additional identifier after the first mobile device has entered the area through the entryway, and wherein the third identifier is received by the wireless transceiver from the wireless communication component of the second mobile device associated with the second user in response to the wireless transceiver broadcasting the request for an additional identifier, \n determining that the first identifier received by the device associated with the entryway from the first mobile device associated with the first user and the second identifier received by the wireless transceiver from the wireless communication component of the first mobile device associated with the first user constitute a first authentication pair, wherein the first authentication pair identifies the first user of the first mobile device as being authenticated to access the area, \n determining that a corresponding identifier from the second mobile device associated with the second user, which along with the third identifier received by the wireless transceiver from the wireless communication component of the second mobile device associated with the second user constitute a second authentication pair, was not received from the device associated with the entryway, and \n in response to determining that a corresponding identifier from the second mobile device associated with the second user was not received from the device associated with the entryway, flagging the second user and the second mobile device.
