Abstract
A method for recognizing a user carrying a terminal capable of receiving a radio signal coming from a device equipped with an antenna suitable for transmitting the signal. The signal is intended to be transmitted between the device and the terminal by using electromagnetic wave conduction capacities of the body of the user when at least one part of his/her body is in the vicinity of the antenna. When the user makes a characteristic movement, to move the part of his/her body close to the antenna, the device transmits a characteristic signal of the movement. The method includes: receiving a signal coming from the device; generating a characteristic datum of the movement; obtaining at least one signature; comparing the characteristic datum with the signature; and depending on the results of the comparison, recognizing the user.
