Wireless low-energy secure data transfer

An apparatus in a low-power wireless sensor interconnectivity system, the apparatus comprising:

• a secure island comprising components, including one or more routing components, configured to securely route and process data received with the wireless communications interface;
• an application processor separate from the secure island;
• a low-power processing unit composing at least a part of the secure island;
• a wireless communication interface communicatively coupled with the application processor and the low-power processing unit, the wireless communication interface configured to receive, while the application processor is in a low-power state, sensor data including information indicative of data collected from one or more sensors;
• and
• one or more routing components communicatively coupled with the wireless communication interface and the low-power processing unit, the one or more routing components configured to:
• determine a routing identifier associated with the sensor data;
• and
• provide the sensor data to the low-power processing unit, based on the determined routing identifier, using the one or more routing components of the secure island.

A mobile device comprising:

• means for receiving sensor data, wherein:
• the means for receiving sensor data includes means for receiving information indicative of data collected from one or more sensors,
• the mobile device includes secure routing and processing means, configured to securely route and process data received with the means for receiving sensor data, and
• the means for receiving sensor data includes means for receiving the sensor data while an application processor of the mobile device is in a low-power state, the application processor being separate from the secure routing and processing means;
• means for determining a routing identifier associated with the sensor data;
• and
• means for providing the sensor data to a low-power processing unit based on the determined routing identifier, wherein the lower-power processing unit composes at least a part of the secure routing and processing means, and the secure routing and processing means compose at least a part of the means for providing the sensor data to the low-power processing unit.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions for processing sensor data in a low-power wireless sensor interconnectivity system, the instructions including code for causing one or more components of a mobile device to perform functions including:

• receiving sensor data with a wireless communications interface of the mobile device, wherein:
• the code for receiving sensor data includes code for receiving information indicative of data collected from one or more sensors,
• the mobile device includes a secure island comprising components, including one or more routing components, configured to securely route and process data received with the wireless communications interface, and
• the code for receiving sensor data includes code for receiving the sensor data while an application processor of the mobile device, separate from the secure island, is in a low-power state;
• determining a routing identifier associated with the sensor data;
• and
• providing the sensor data to a low-power processing unit composing at least a part of the secure island, based on the determined routing identifier, using the one or more routing components of the secure island.
