Abstract

A wireless user authentication system uses an AIDC device and a wireless reader to verify the identity of an individual. The AIDC device is a key fob that contains the user's credentials. The wireless reader is a device that wirelessly interrogates the AIDC device to ascertain the user's credentials. The wireless reader has a casing an interface window, a component cavity, a control panel, multiple antenna spacers, an antenna, and a processing unit. The casing is an enclosure that houses the components of the wireless reader within the component cavity. The interface window is hole that enables the user to access the control panel. the antenna spacers are rigid beams that retain the processing unit in a position that is offset from the control panel. Additionally, the antenna is wound around the antenna spacers and retained in a configuration that facilitates wirelessly communicating with the AIDC device.
